Taiwanese Aboriginal Song 我們都是一家人 (We Are All Family)

-

Here's another Taiwanese aboriginal song called 我們都是一家人 (Wǒmen dōu shì yījiā rén). The song above mixes Taiwanese Mandarin and aboriginal language. The song means "We are family". This would be another Amis Tribe song in Taiwan. 


Above is a version written in the Amis language. This would sound more authentic than the mixed language or the ones written in Mandarin. 

Enjoy!

A Parliamentary Philippines with Mandatory Weekly Questioning Will Be Better Than Its Mandatory Yearly Presidential SONAs

Rappler I must admit that ignorance of the difference between the parliamentary system vs. the presidential system is there. Some people still insist on the myth that the first Marcos Administration headed by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s late father, Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr., was really a parliamentary system. In reality. the Marcos "parliamentary" years during the Martial Law era, were still presidential (read why  here ). A simple research would show that Cesar Virata was called by the late Lee Kuan Yew, as a non-starter and no leader. LKY would know how a real parliamentary system works. Sure, it's one thing that those who consider themselves Dilawan, voice their criticisms. However, the big problem of the Dilawans is their focus on political idolatry rather than solutions. I can talk with the Dilawans all they want that we do need to shift to the parliamentary system and some of them still cry foul, say that it'll be a repetition of the first Marcos Admi...

Today in History: Paco Larrañaga was in QUEZON CITY When the Crime Happened

Photo credited to Michael Collins and Marty Syjuco I remember getting the shock of my life when somebody told me, "You still remember Larrañaga? He was innocent!" in Cebuano. I replied with a "Huh?" It seemed too good to be true. After I heard it, I checked out Give Up Tomorrow (read my review here ) sometime before the badly made movie Jacqueline Comes Home came out in 2018. I decided to check the movie a few years later out of boredom but it was more boring than the rainy evenings (read my review here ). I even had a friend (will not mention his name to protect his privacy) who was with Francisco Juan "Paco" G. Larrañaga on that night. The photo above couldn't be manipulated at all. If one is in doubt, why not have the photos checked for authenticity rather than just jump to the conclusion?  The Chiong Sisters went missing on July 16, 1997. Paco was later rounded up as one of the suspects in a crime that happened on July 16, 1997. Where was Paco at ...

Why a Lee Kuan Yew-Style PRESIDENT Won't Emerge Under the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines

Sim Dapat Jr. It's easy to admire the late great statesman Lee Kuan Yew . However, it's easy to just think about what he said about the Marcoses while ignoring the stuff that he said about the Philippines. As I was reading his book From Third World to First , it was  easy to talk about what he said about the Marcoses while ignoring good economic advice . Years ago, I also remember the Philippine Star article by Alex Magno (way back in 2006 that talked about the parliamentary system . As the 2028 is just around the corner  and it's 2026 , I was thinking about the fallacy of "just vote wisely, it's not the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines that's the problem." However, it made me think of this statement by Magno from the Philippine Star , which should be a reflection of the biggest hurdle why a LKY type of leader would never show up in the Philippines: One keen observer of the sometimes bizarre conduct of our national affairs is former Malaysian prime min...
