That opening tune is still used today in dance performances here in the Philippines. I got hit with a wave of nostalgia from when I had to learn the steps to so many native dances in highschool, and all to that tune.

Thanks for showing us our life in the 50's. Mom/Dad were just in their 30's. Now they're gone in the 90's. May we not forget the examples they left behind... hardwork/ perseverance and love of family.

Thank you for sharing this mate. It's interesting to see where my Father's heritage originates from, he would've been 9 years old in 1957! I hope you're able to find and upload more clips in the future : ) Power & respect from Melbourne Australia ✌

OH! My thank you so much for this Sir. i reminisce what my grand mother told me during those times. the way they lived it really showed here so beautiful Country our beloved . btw i loved the music background of our traditional folk song so lovely to my ears.

[@mikedfelix]

Amazing. Thanks for sharing this video. Unfortunately my country is still stuck in the past we never made much progress.

[@roldanreal2534]

mikedfelix Sad but true. The capital Manila has remained stagnant. The people in Romblon where we get marble still are poor. The industries are not developed well to benefit the poor. I don’t know what happened along the way but clearly the country was mismanaged.

Napakasipag ng mga pilipino noon. Ang dami pa nilang napagkakakitaan pero sad to say, mahirap pa rin ang buhay ng mga pilipino ngayon at piniling mangibang bansa na lang...

[@jessicac.8059]

Thank you for sharing. It was great getting a view of what my mom's upbringing may have been like, and life for the grandmother and great-grandmother I never knew. It's always fascinating for those of us who have grown up abroad, in new home cultures, to learn what life was like for our ancestors. - From Canada

"Only one big city, Manila" That big city is now a huge city that is home to 12 million people. The urban sprawl emanating from this city is growing farther and farther into what was once rural provinces. The NCR and its urban sprawl dubbed "Mega Manila" has as many as 35 million people. China's Pearl River Delta is even bigger with a population of around 120 million.

The first Asians to reach the Americas were Filipinos who landed in 1587 in what is now California. Some say as early as 1565 through the Manila galleon trade route. Filipinos beat other Asians, Africans, Middle Eastern and most European to the new world.

Then Marcos happened in 1965 through 1986.

[@alteffour872]

no, it's the conflicts, civil wars, revolts, terrorism, Communism, and at last, the worst, EDSA REVOLT.

You should read more about history with objective POV. You will see that Marcos' reign is more prosperous than our democracy today.

[@unknownph537]
