I am of Spanish, Portugese, Chinese, and indigenious Filipino blood. I guess the US Census and Gov have been wrongly classifying me all these years.  |
Well, check your map too!! It is called Philippine Islands because it is an archipelago.. Go to Philippines and ask every Filipino there..and they'll say they are Asians because thay are part of southeast asia.. why do you keep on insisting that Filipinos are Pacific Islanders..just because we are composed of a group of islands that lie on the Pacific doesn't make us Pacific Islanders..anyway, not that I mind...but I just don't want people to have the wrong idea that we are not Asians...
