Amis Tribal Feelings Dance

This is another fun tribal dance video. I guess my obsession with Taiwanese milk tea (and the tea leaves are grown from Mt. Alishan) got me into this. Also, the tea brand Tealive (which is a Malaysian brand) got me more interested in this video.

Using Google translate, the song title "部落情懷" (Bùluò qínghuái) means "Tribal Feelings". It's a good thing to have Google translate these days especially when one is trying to learn the Chinese language.

What It Felt Like Entering the National Museum of the Philippines in Cebu City

National Museum As a man in his late 30s, I can really miss the memories of the 1990s and the early 2000s (which included my college years ). I miss a lot of people who are no longer with us too. I'd like to share my experience at the National Museum of the Philippines-Cebu . I haven't gone to a historical site in like, forever . Maybe, I could talk about some "historical sites" I "visited" a short time after the pandemic such as Bonsu Temple (a Buddhist temple in Pasil) and the Colon Chinese Temple (which I heard is no longer lived by anyone, if I'm not wrong). I wanted to go to Casa Gorordo, to relive some of my college days. Going to the NMP-Cebu made me feel like a student again. Entering meant I had to get my ID. I presented my UMID ID as a registration. It was composed of two floors. It's spacious so getting lost (at first) can be expected for a first-time visitor. The first floor contained artifacts. That would remind me of the days at the Un...

"Give Up Tomorrow" Explores Facts vs. Gossip in a Gripping Crime Documentary

Cebu Daily News Updated: July 17, 2023 The rainy nights can get scary. I was reminded of a case that happened in 1997 (now it's 2022 going to 2023) on July 16 of that day. Back then, it was the low-tech 1990s era when people used easily fragile diskettes, typewriters were still used, and the Internet was still dial-up and compromised with the landline, you can name it. Anybody who was born in the 1980s or the 1990s can testify to that. This is the Chiong Sisters Case. Two sisters namely Jacqueline Jimenea Chiong and Marijoy Jimenea Chiong disappeared. That happened while waiting for their father, the late Dionisio Chiong (who died during the pandemic), in Ayala Center-Cebu. It was a rainy evening when the two disappeared. Back then, there was a very limited spread of knowledge since the Internet was just a luxury. A diagram found on Facebook, apparently owned by the late Miguel "Juan" Del Gallego y Ripoll The arrest of the suspects on September 15, 1997 Back then, there ...

Today in History: The Body of a Woman in Tan-awan, Carcar, Found and Believed to be Marijoy Jimenea Chiong

Pinoy History Facebook Page CORRECTION/UPDATE: As of September 27, 2025 , I decided to put new information concerning body decay. I realized that decomposition may not alter skeletal height . I decided to update this post because I made some factual errors. I would like to share my opinion that the body found in Carcar, Cebu , was indeed the body of Marijoy Jimenea Chiong . As I watched Give Up Tomorrow , I was infuriated to realize that the late Judge Martin Ocampo didn't even bother to have the body analyzed. Even worse, the Supreme Court of the Philippines under the leadership of Atty. Hilario G. Davide Jr., (a relative by affinity of the victims) said no to the request for a DNA test . Even worse, the alleged remains of Marijoy were later cremated, leaving no more room to verify them. Where are the tissue samples? It's no wonder that it's become effortless for rumors to spread that the Chiong sisters are supposedly alive (but the photos found belong to the sisters-in-...
