FILIPINO LIFESTYLE CULTURE AND IDENTITY..
The truth about "Filipino Culture, Identity and History" is most often misunderstood.
From the colonization of Spanish to the Philippines lasted for over three hundred thirty- three years influences most in religion specially Christianity gave great impact to our civilization including Philippine folk music, folk dance, language, food, and art and even government and laws..
Pre-Hispanic indigenous Filipino culture had also cultural influences from India, through the Indianized kingdom of Southeast Asia particularly the Srivijaya Empire and the Majapahit Empire, in what is now Malaysia and Indonesia. This includes the customs, Filipino psyche and Philippine mythology has been influenced by Hinduism and Buddhism.
The Philippines was a U.S. Colony from 1898 until the Second World War. American influences are evident in the use of the English Language and in contemporary pop culture, food, music, movies and basketball.
The Chinese been settling in the Philippines since pre-colonial times and their influence is evident in the popularity of noodles (locally known as Mami) and the respect from elders in kissing the hands. Gambling games of mahjong and jueteng are also imitated from them.
The various Muslim Filipino in Mindanao, the southern island of the country, also celebrate their own centuries-old customs and traditions, such as concepts of local law (Agamat) and personal honor (Marabat), which are related to both Islamic, and native concepts. The martial art of Kali emerged from Muslim Mindanao.The Kulintang gong-chime ensemble, which is still played by various groups in the south, is a celebrated icon of surviving ancient Philippine culture.
A Professor once said; "The Filipino true identity lies on the diversity of their culture." The culture of the Philippines reflects the complexity of the history of the Philippines through the blending of cultures of diverse indigenous civilizations with characteristics introduced via foreign influences.
