Another day in the colony for Indigenous People of Taiwan

[@Prairielander]

In Canada we are dealing with reconciliation with our indigenous peoples. I am not indigenous, but I support their self determination. I think reconciliation takes time. I hope Taiwan's government and people work with the indigenous groups to help them preserve and rediscover their heritage as well as share the land with them.

[@user-vy2bg7jo4m]

its the indigenous trying to help and educate us showing the right paths I doubt not just reconciliation for canada, there will be many more issues which relate to the indigenous

uh...I am sorry but...the karaoke machine is a Japanese invention. It was invented in Kobe Japan in the 70s. The Japanese started the karaoke culture, then it spread to other parts of East Asia and all over Southeast Asia...

[@yellowmixedpurple1751]

@@cryptochia no, its called video music not karaoke. But The people called it karaoke here in philippines. The last patent holder 1975 is the one used now in the world is the filipino inventions he developed the patent . if you can't accept you have a problem. 😅

[@cryptochia]

@@yellowmixedpurple1751 I am in my 50s. My family in Japan had their first karaoke device in the late 70s in one of their businesses. Our family in Taiwan had a karaoke machine in our living room throughout the 80s. In the 90s, we upgraded to a digital one, where you punch in the numbers to get the songs you want to sing. My family in Taiwan owns a karaoke business to this day. How old were you in the 1970s? Did you have karaoke in the Philippines in the 70s? Your problem is that you don't want to give credit where credit is due. A Filipino guy might have patented it later at some point, but it was the Japanese who first invented it. Get your facts straight.

[@rjee007]

​​@@cryptochia he was referring to a videoke machine that was developed here in the Philippines not karaoke. I think the right word for it is innovation not invention. Innovation means the improvement of an existing technology while invention is an original creation. Thus the japanese invented the karaoke machine while the Filipino innovated the videoke machine.

[@cryptochia]

@@rjee007 I appreciate your well-thought-out and balanced response. But mine was directed at the first poster’s claim that karaoke is a Filipino invention, never mind the fact that karaoke is a Japanese word. They then came back with the video music and 1975 patent argument in their 2nd post, which did not quite explain their initial point. They did not specifically mention the videoke machine, so I’m sorry but it’s unclear to me if they were referring to the videoke machine or the karaoke machine. So what is a videoke machine anyway? How does it differ from a karaoke machine? What does this technology entail? Who owns the patent? When did the videoke machine become a thing? I’ve never heard of it or seen one. I am genuinely curious. The 1975 patent in question (no patent number I can find) appears to be associated with Roberto del Rosario’s creation, which he named the minus-one, sing-along machine. Filipinos like to claim Robert del Rosario the inventor of the karaoke machine, which is far from the truth. He was the creator of his own singing machine (similar to the karaoke machine), but he was not the one who invented the actual original karaoke machine. There were at least 3 other singing machines before del Rosario's version. The most notable one is Sparko Box or Music Box invented by Shigeichi Negishi in 1967, and the other one is 8 Juke created by Daisuke Inoue in 1971. Inoue called his 8 Juke, karaoke, because at the time the term was already a common entertainment industry jargon, which means empty orchestra or absence of a band in Japanese. It was coined by someone in Japanese radio broadcasting in the late 60s. Inoue, thus, has been credited as the inventor of the karaoke machine because he was the first to refer to his creation as ‘karaoke’ and popularized the karaoke machine and culture in the 70s in Japan via his business model. That is why people have been calling any sing-along machine the karaoke machine including del Rosario’s one. But to be accurate, Shigeichi Negishi was the first original inventor of the singing machine. His Sparko Box just was not commercially successful, as a result, he's not as well-known as Inoue. These singing machines created by Negishi, Inoue, and del Rosario were similar in concept, somewhat similar in technical design but different in packaging. Negishi was unable to obtain his patent due to high patent fees in Japan at the time. Inoue didn’t care too much about getting one but focused on selling his karaoke machine. Robert del Rosario was more savvy, he got his version of his singing machine patented. From what I understand, he obtained 2 patents in 1983 (UM-5269) and in 1986 (UM-6237) seemingly to include updated audio features to his sing-along machine. But since the early 80s to the mid 90s, these aforementioned rudimentary singing machine models have been replaced by more advanced karaoke systems innovated by Japanese electronic makers. In 1980, Toshiba EMI introduced a type of video karaoke software. In 1982, video karaoke was officially launched and popularized by Pioneer’s laserdisc video karaoke system. Subsequently, VHD, VHS, VCD operated video karaoke systems began to pop up, innovated by the usual suspects, i.e. Victor, Sony, JVC, then telecom/online karaoke innovated by Taito in 1992 (first “streaming” karaoke). Since the early and mid-80s, people in Japan and Taiwan have been singing karaoke with song lyrics displayed on a monitor. For those of you who are interested in this topic, Wikipedia has a good summary of the history and evolution of karaoke. Its bibliography section has some informative links and books too. For those who read Japanese, type in www dot karaoke dot or dot jp/03nenpy/ for ‘A History of Karaoke’ and ‘Karaoke History Chart’.

[@JuriBinturong]

Indonesians are only half Austronesian, they were originally Austro asiatics that speak an Austronesian language, and their dna is heavily mixed with southern Indian DNA. Orchid island of Taiwan speaks the same language as the Ivatan of the Philippines. The only closely related people to Filipinos other than the Taiwanese aboriginals are the dusun of Sabah malaysia and the minahasan people of indonesia.

[@JuriBinturong]

Most aboriginals of Taiwan are pro mainland, most of the them vote for the Kuomintang since the Taiwan government is trying to steal all of the aboriginal people's land and not preserving the cultures and languages, only using them to make money from tourism, in China the minorities have their own schools and the teaching of their local languages and customs is mandatory. Also Philippines like the Taiwan government is very much imperialist as it does not teach the other ethnic groups their own languages and cultures, the Philippines only pushes for the heavily hispanized tagalog culture and language. Both Taiwan and the Philippines are beholden to the imperialist America that has wiped out thousands of tribes in the American mainland and is subjugating the Hawaii people. The Japanese too is allied with America, Japan has committed cultural genocide on the Ainu and the Okinawan Ryuchu people in the same context as what the Taiwanese, Philippine and American governments are doing to other ethnic groups

3:13 There is something wrong, the Republic of China was established before Japan returned Taiwan. And the People Republic of China was established after Chiang Kai-shek retreats to Taiwan.

[@audreyandlinCompany]

The Qing Dynasty governed parts of Taiwan (Formosa). They lost the first Sino War and ceded Formosa to Japan. The Revolution of 1912 led to the Republic of China with Yuan Shikai and Sun Yat Sen. A civil war with the Communist Party led to the ROC re-establishing itself on Formosa which was a US territory at the time. Mao successfully removed the KMT from the mainland and re-named China "The People’s Republic of China." Chiang Kai Shek took over Formosa via the White Terror Era and renamed the island Taiwan when the United Nations was formed. (It was a founding member.) I'm not sure if membership was under ROC or Taiwan? He later rage-quit the UN when it voted to allow the People’s Republic to join. The US left Taiwan in 1980. And that's where we are now.

I don't see how indigenous people are mistreated in Taiwan, especially in the past three decades. They enjoy numerous welfare benefits that we Han people don't have. For example, in education, their college entrance exam scores are multiplied by up to 1.35, and there are scholarships specifically aimed at them. Additionally, the government provides subsidies for studying abroad and offers more financial support in other aspects of life. Despite 98% of Taiwanese being considered Han Chinese, many of us are mixed with the plains indigenous peoples, especially those whose ancestors arrived in Taiwan during or before the Qing dynasty. By blood, a lot of us will be considered as partial indegenous people but still we do not have the right to enjoys the welfare benefits(since the plains indigenous people were mostly assimilated with Han Chinese). While I understand their desire for more rights to protect their culture, they are definitely not being mistreated, as they have many welfare benefits that we can only dream of.

[@philiphema2678]

Let us not forget that China invaded another independent nation Tibet to counteract India's influence and military presence. Invading independent Taiwan solidifies China's claim to sovereignty over the whole of the South China Sea (or, as it is known by some countries, the Eastern Sea) and would effectively prevent the implementation of the Freedom of Navigation Act permitting international status of, and access through, the Taiwan Straits. Taiwan's independence MUST be guranteed. The indigenous people would disappear under Chinese rule.

The Out Of Taiwan theory has been debunked due to recent archeological evidence which already back up DNA and linguistic evidence that the Philippines are the Austronesian ground zero of human expansion into the Pacific, and the rest of South East Asia. We are the originators, and Hawai'iki! All Polynesians can trace their ancestry on their maternal side back to one single Igorot woman in the Philippines. Our tattoo tools can be carbon dated as far back as 4000 years ago, long before Polynesia was settled. All aboriginal tribes of Taiwan are closely related to our northern most tribes in Northern Philippines where they once migrated from in canoes. Naga of Nagaland East India are Austronesian, the Cham from Southern Vietnam are Austronesian, Imerina who 1st settled Madagascar in East Africa came from Borneo, and in turn the Malay and Indonesians migrated out from the Philippines. Then resettling Central Philippines through back-migration prior to colonization. Even Thai once sailed from Taiwan, their ancient homeland, before reaching mainland Asia/China, were their language changed from Austronesian and into Kadai after heavy influence from Sino Tibetan and Chinese. The Philippines was colonized for over 500 years. And it was a success, as no one knows anything about our pre colonial history and heritage, and calls us ''Asians'' due to a colonial mentality, religious brainwash, racism, and politics... time to decolonize, heal and revive!
