Analysis
Do you agree with the differentiation between the West and the East? Where can you find the Philippines in the
distinction? What are the factors that make the Philippines similar or different from its Asian neighbors? Is there also
a difference between regions or ethnolinguistic groups in the Philippines?
= Yes, we can find the Philippines in Eastern part; some factors that make the Philippines similar to some Asian
neighbors are Beliefs, Culture, Foods and traditions, Filipinos have similar factors with its Asian neighbors in terms of
culture and traditions, this is how neighbors influence each other. For the differences, Philippines was invaded by
some countries in the Western part so There are factors I consider that make the Philippines difference to some
Asian neighbors, such as invasions, globalizations and similarities in terms of government in some country in western
part, invasions makes our culture, beliefs, and individualism different from our Asian neighbors because we inherited
it by some country in western part. Philippine’s ethnolinguistic also vary from our Asian neighbors because some of
those are acquired and being mixed from other countries cause by invasion in the Philippines back then.
