"Never forget the roots of your family"
A little serious of our mind:
Try to imagine, that your grandchildren can´t speak with you in your language......
Learn your family the language of the roots, so your family - children can speak their language from childhood!
Learn your family the culture of the roots, so your family understand and respect the roots e.g. Mano Po!
Remember to look the mainpage About Philippines - click: English or Danish and look also NEWS & INFORMATIONS, where you can read many informations and last news about all pages.

Filipinos Set Sail in a 'Balangay' Adventurers successfully launched a replica of an ancient Philippine boat - the balangay - that they will use to sail around Southeast Asia and possibly to Africa to promote Filipino pride and unity. Art Valdez, Expedition Leader: This boat while we built it here in Manila, in the Philippines, is a Southeast Asian boat. It's a regional boat. We can not totally claim that it is a Filipino boat. But it's a way again of showing what the Malayo-Polynesians or the Indo-Malays have accomplished. They were known as great ship builders and seafarers. As a matter of fact, they were the equivalent of the Vikings of Asia. |

The World of Amaya: Unleashing the KarakoaThe reproduction of the traditional warship called the karakoa —a Filipino boat built without nails but was three times faster than a Spanish galleon Look the article
HERE
Look the logo-photo in the original size HERE |

The Flying Karakoa was a sleek Philippine warship that was smooth and swift in comparison to the Spanish galleons. Father Combes, one of the first Spanish Fryars to document early Philippine history (1667-70) said, "The care and technique with which they build them makes their ships sail like birds, while ours are like lead in comparison." |
