The People of the Philippines

by the Philippine Tourism Promotions Board

1
The Filipino is basically of Malay stock with a sprinkling of Chinese. American, Spanish
and Arab blood. The Philippines has a population of 70 million, and it is hard to distinguish
accurately the lines between stocks. From a long history of western colonial rule, interspersed
with the visits of merchants and traders evolved a people of a unique blend of east and west,
both in appearance and culture.
2
The Filipino character is actually a little bit of all cultures put together. The bayanihan or
spirit of kinship and camaraderie that Filipinos are famous for is said to be taken from Malay
forefathers. The close family relations are said to have been inherited from the Chinese. The
piousness comes from the Spaniards who introduced Christianity in the 16th century. Hospitality
is a common denominator in the Filipino character and this is what distinguishes the Filipinos
are probably one of the few, if not the only, English-proficient Oriental people today, Pilipino is
the official national language, with English considered as the country’s unofficial one.
3
The Filipinos are divided geographically and culturally into regions, and each regional
group is recognizable by distinct traits and dialects – the study and frugal Ilocanos of the north,
the Industrious Tagalog of the centrail plains, The carefree Visayas from the central islands and
the colourful tribesmen and religious Moslems of Midanao. Tribal communities can be found
scattered across the archipelago. The Philippines has more than 111 dialects spoken, owing to
the subdivisions of these basic regional and cultural groups.
4
Some 80 percent of the population is catholic. Spain’s lasting legacy. About 15 percent
is Moslem and these people can be found basically in Mindanao. The rest of the population is
made up mostly of smaller Christian denominations and Buddhist.
5
The country is marked by a true blend of cultures; truly in the Philippines. East meets
West. The background of the people is Indonesian and Malay. There are Chinese and Spanish
elements as well. The history of American rule and contact with merchants and traders
culminated in a unique blend of East and West, both in the appearance and culture of the
people of the Filipinos, or people in the Philippines.

No delay in Marawi school opening, DepEd assures

By: Jhesset O. Enano – Reporter/ @JhessetEnanoINQ

Classes in war-torn Marawi City will begin on the same day as the rest of public schools
nationwide on June 4, the Department of Education (DepEd) said on Monday.
Education Secretary Leonor Briones said she would visit Marawi’s ground zero for the first time
on Tuesday to assess the conditions of schools in the city devastated by war between
government forces and the Islamic State-inspired Maute group last year.
“We are doing all we can to speed up the construction and repair of the school buildings in
Marawi,” she said in a press briefing at the DepEd central office in Pasig City.

On Wednesday, Briones, along with Assistant Education Secretary Alfhadar Pajiji of DepEd
Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, is expected to lead the closing of “Brigada Eskwela
sa Marawi” and the launch of “Oplan Balik Eskwela in Marawi” at Amai Pakpak Central
Elementary School in Marawi.
Launched in December 2017, Brigada Eskwela sa Marawi was the DepEd’s flagship program
for the recovery and rehabilitation of the Islamic city after the five-month siege.
Last year, at the height of the siege that began on May 23, classes in Marawi and in eight
school districts nearest to the conflict area were pushed back by two weeks to ensure the safety
of students, teachers and DepEd employees.
Clusters
Data from the DepEd showed that more than 31,000 students were displaced from the city and
were forced to continue their studies in other schools across the country.
Despite the ongoing rehabilitation, however, Briones noted that not all schools in Marawi could
be opened this school year.
“What DepEd did was to cluster the schools, after we observed that they were adjacent to one
another,” she said.

Briones said that of the 69 schools in the city, more than 20 would not be able to accommodate
students because of their poor and unsafe conditions.
More than 40 schools would need to undergo repairs, she said.
