Aleeza Manamtam will study Early Childhood Education and Care at BCCI when Australian borders reopen. She has been patiently waiting in The Philippines and attending our English conversation class online since September last year. In this issue she tells us all about her home country, The Philippines. The islands of the Philippines were discovered by Ferdinand Magellan, a Portuguese explorer sailing for Spain, in the year 1521. The name Philippines was named after the king of Spain, Philip II, during Spanish colonisation. The Spaniards ruled for 333 years in the country and the period ended on June 12, 1898 when the Philippine Revolution happened and Filipinos got their independence. This day has become the celebration, Independence Day.

  • Negros Panaad Festival Dances: a Reflection of Negrenses' Cultural
    Asia Pacific Journal of Multidisciplinary Research, Volume 8, No. 3, August 2020 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Asia Pacific Journal of Negros Panaad Festival Dances: A Reflection Multidisciplinary Research of Negrenses’ Cultural Identity Vol. 8 No.3, 13-24 August 2020 Part III Randyll V. Villones P-ISSN 2350-7756 Philippine Normal University Visayas, Negros Occidental, Philippines E-ISSN 2350-8442 [email protected] www.apjmr.com ASEAN Citation Index Date Received: May 31, 2020; Date Revised: August 11, 2020 Abstract - Negrense cultural identity has been slowly eroded with the dynamics of virtual colonial cultural influences through social media. This sad state prompted the creation and organization of some cultural festival that will reawaken the cultural awareness and consciousness of every Negrense. This study aimed to analyze Negros Panaad festival dances to unearth the embedded cultural contexts which encapsulate the Negrenses’ Cultural Identity. The descriptive-narrative approach was employed to gather different dance characteristics, including historical background/context, movement description, costumes, accessories, props/dance implements, and music/rhythm. To examine the participants' understanding of the dance, its relation to everyday life activities, and worldview, the focused group discussion, and direct observation were conducted. Ten choreographers, ten dancers, five barangay officials, and five old-aged key informants, with a total of 30, served as participants of the study coming from different local government units joining the Panaad festival dances. Significant findings revealed that these dance characteristics manifested from festival dances were solid shreds of evidence of the different cultural contexts which rightfully mirrors the rootedness and the cultural undertone of Negrenses as a person in general.
