Guide Questions:
1. How do you define indigenous people?

Indigenous people are species of human population who are native

or we can naturally see in a particular region, place, or area. In layman’s
term they called locals or “lumad” in local dialects.

2. What are your perceptions about them?

 If a person who grew in the city would think about indigenous
people they might see them as ignorant uncivilized people. But I believe that
in some part of history we all came in same nomadic culture we only had
been able to adapt in a fast paced cultural modernization.

In my own perception as I grew along with some indigenous people, I

see a of fascinating traits on them one of which is their ability to cope up with
global advancements while preserving their culture. Seeing them reminds me
of where we came from, the culture that once we are part of and how
wonderful the culture we have.

1. How does your definition of indigenous peoples differ from your

interviewees?
There is no difference from my definition there is the same
thought of what indigenous people are. Because my definition is it is a
group of people that shares the same collective culture that found in
the same place so basically they are “lumad” in that particular area.
The same with the definition to my interviewee that is native or can see
in same region.

with your interviewees?
 The perception of my interviewee that we in common is that they
are very slow to cope-up with the trends today. Because we all know

preserving their cultures but unlike to others they are late. Also some of
the indigenous tribes are being bullied for they are not able to adopt
the fast global technology.

about the indigenous peoples?
As what I have observed to my interviewee there is no

Indigenous people. He as a good perception the tribes that
surrounded him in fact he is proud to the culture of the Indigenous
People even he is not belong the tribes.

indigenous peoples?

conveying their language in unique way. Second the way they treat
tribes it is very respectful. Lastly the way they preserve their culture from
their ancestral.
