kumander d, you sir are part of that history as well and your name will be mentioned along with it in future history books as you were the first outsider to have been told about it first-hand. congratulations sir. you have made your mark in tboli/philippine history within the handful of years in the country. what an honor.

Brother it is wonderful for us, the foreign audience, to see you completely immerse yourself into this culture and sharing this with us takes to the highest level. When I retire in 9 years, i fully expect to find you when i get there and spend hours upon hours reliving your experiences over many 5:thirsty moments.

I am so proud of you Anselm. The contents you share have been comparable to that shown by well known media networks. You are brave to go through all if these adventures. You have shared things that have never shown to the world. I hope that this helps preserve the tradition and culture of the T'Bolis.

[@denzyrfernandez7700]

Sir, you have my total respect and appreciation for featuring in your vlog our T'boli (IP) brothers. Truly such a big honor for being chosen by our "centenarian lola" as a recipient of the well-treasured history of the tribe's culture and ethnography. Well of course a documentary documented in writing by the tribe's people certified via fingerprint mark of lola is really a once in a lifetime experience that will never be forgotten for the rest of your life Sir. Magnifico!!!👏👏💯💯

You are documenting life of forgotten peoples. Most Filipino's know nothing of this. Yet you got the Tiboli Oracle to only tell her story to you. She knows her time is coming to closure but she must have seen into your soul. Now more than words written on a page; her story has been brought to life. I think she had a twinkle in her eye for you. I would guess that she would of wanted to have been your Grandmother. Kudos for your documenting this.🙏🙏🙏
