I Enjoyed Watching Yukan Hayung's Struggle as an Atayal Native in Taiwan


This would be another good video to watch. I was watching the struggles of indigenous tribes in Taiwan. There's a stereotype of indigenous people not just in the Philippines but also in rest of Asia. Featured in this video is Yukan Hayung--an indigenous student in Taiwan from the Atayal tribe. Here we see Hayung speak in both Atayal and Taiwanese. 

I really have a fondness for researching more of Southeast Asia. The indigenous people in Taiwan and the Philippines do share a lot of things in common. The same kind of outfits, dances, and food would really tell you that the Philippines isn't so unique. 

This makes me think about what future would indigenous Filipinos have in the protectionist Philippines? Taiwan's democratic, FDI-friendly country has given more chances to get awareness of their aboriginal tribes. Try watching this video and learn more about how Taiwan's FDI-friendly country may have given Taiwanese aborigines a better chance than Filipino aborigines.
