funny topic. I am Chinese as far as I know there were two times PH came so close to become a Chinese colony like Taiwan. I am not talking about the Chinese pirates invasion I am talking about massive sized Han Chinese migration. The first occasion was in 1662 , right after Zheng Chenggong（Koxinga）defeated the Dutch and occupied Taiwan. According to history records at that time there was a massacre against Chinese migrants in Manila by spanish colonizer. After hearing the massacre Zheng went mad and prepared his army for an invasion to destroy spanish in Manila and planned to set up a government there, but just before saling to conquer Manila a sex scandal about his eldest son exposed. Zheng went furious and sent order to Xiamen（his mainland base , where his elder son was）to execute his son. but generals in Xiamen disobeyed his order to kill his heir and then Zheng prepared to go back Xiamen to handle this personally but he got ill and died in Taiwan the following month. the second occasion was in 1683 when Qing navy defeated Taiwan navy（normally still loyal to Ming dynesty ）then the landing invasion of Taiwan was inevitable. Prince Zheng Keshuang（Koxinga‘s grandson）had a meeting with his generals. One option was to surrender； the other was to transfer armies and people to PH as a new base（like what KMT did when they lost civil war to communist in mainland then fled to Taiwan）. Sadly they chose to surrender.

[@rapidboots3615]

​@@phiberteknik5496 you missed the point

[@roff000]

Can you tell me more about this? Especially the migrations

[@HuwagSalangin]

This view really make sense. If the reason of the first invasion attempt of Chinese in Manila was because of the murder Chinese migrants that's already during the occupation of the ruthless Spaniards who took over the country. That precisely adds up to the story, this shows to proof the known trade partner and alliance between the Luzonese and Chinese. We have the oldest China Town in Manila were might be the descendants of the first Chinese who migrated to the country. What a colorful Asia would it be if westerns did not interfere with our ancestral kingdoms. I love history.

[@TarikSolimanX]

My guess, the Chinese would have treated the locals better than the Spaniards had they conquered the islands since they seemed to have gotten along better with the Luzonians anyway. The Spaniards didn't even want the "Indios" to learn their language which is a blessing really. Mexicans only speak Spanish today predominantly. Us Filipinos have so many languages that would have been wiped out had the Spanish treated us like Mexico or Cuba.

[@hanpol17]

your channel really help Filipinos relearn our forgotten history

[@octavia7408]

So, my summary is that; 1. It wasn't solely the Chinese invading the Philippines. It was a group of pirates hailing from different parts of East and Southeast Asia with a Chinese leader. 2. The Chinese dynasties have always acknowledged and respected the pre-hispanic kingdoms of the Philippines. (I'll get back to this point later on) 3. It also shows how divided we are even then as a people that one group of Filipinos (Pangasinan) welcomed the Pirates while another collaborated with their conquerors who recently just killed some royalties. Even on just one island, Luzon, everyone seems divided. My reaction: You brought up the topic of sovereignty at the end but it's funny because from what I read, no one cared about those areas before. The US did not care when the Vietnamese reclaimed some parts of it in the 70's. The 11-dash line was based on the US concession to China after WW2 that President Eisenhower even gave China a battleship for them to be able to patrol the South China Sea. This issue started to blow up when the US declared its Pivot to Asia. Now, it makes me wonder, are we collaborating again with our former colonizers, the US? Which has strong neocolonialism in the country evident by strong colonial mentality here? The South China Sea issue has the potential to not only divide the Philippines but divide this whole region and many people seeking this topic are here to either learn or confirm their biases of anti-China hate propaganda. It seems like again, we are more interested to collaborate and push the interests of our colonizers than listening to the side of a 5000-year-old Kingdom with whom we've had friendly relations longer than any western colonizers set foot in Asia.

[@alxsmrnda]

This comment! Yes agree. The Chinese empire didn't sanctioned this "invasion" it's just a group of pirates with different ethnicities. So the title of Chinese Invasion of the Ph even with a "?" is misleading

[@reybladen3068]

It's actually a pirate invasion not an invasion by the Chinese Empire. The issue of west Philippine sea is also a modern one. It's not about patriotism or history, it's about geopolitics. The West Philippine sea region is both a strategic position both military and economic wise that's why it's important for both China and other SEA nations to control it.

[@USAStrife]

I second this! The chinese never wanted to conquer us because its better for them to trade with us!

Request vid: Please do vid about Princess Urduja. The muslim traveller, Ibn Battuta, has chronicles describing a warrior princess and Philippine heroine (around 1345 to 1400 AD), Princess Urduja.

Limahon successfully attacked Shenquan in 1571, but was then defeated in 1572 at Chenghai, forcing him to flee to Luzon. The Chinese General Liu Yaohui sent a fleet that temporarily drove Limahon from his fortified trading base on Luzon, but by 1574, Limahon was pirating along the Chinese coast once again.

Very interesting! I always wonder what Pangasinan was specifically Lingayen before Spanish, American and Japanese. Attack of these conquerors always had the Lingayen beach footsteps, map shows its a very strategic shipping hub in Luzon. I wonder what's next for Lingayen. I also realized that we the natives of Pangasinan and Ilocos are the descendants of a pirate, that's why I love One Piece 😂

[@pyophyo8901]

I'm also from Pangasinan and have always wondered why some of my relatives have east Asian features. Me and some of my relatives have light skin despite the fact that my family from both my mother and father's side have no traces of possibly having a Hispanic ancestor at a certain point. Although my mother's last name sounds hispanic, it still does not mean they are of Hispanic descent but rather given a Hispanic surname. People of Austronesian descent may have genes for light skin(though not very common), but there is also the possibility that intermarriage between the locals and Chinese pirates/sailors/merchants happened and maybe that's how some people here in the north have traits derived from the Chinese. That's just my guess and maybe I'm wrong.

[@ran32delaria]

Often history is written from the viewpoint of the victors. In the case of the invasion of Limahong, it is from the Spanish conquistadors and not from the native pinoys. Could it be that not a written written document was taken down by our pinoy ancestors but an oral retelling of the story?

1574 predates the building of the Intramuros stone wall. The Infante Cloister to the north east of Manila was noted as "damaged by the Chinese pirates." In 1603 and the 1630's there were Chinese uprisings in Luzon. In 1600, Iesyu Tokugawa crucified Wokou pirates, either at Luzon or Ryukku. There were a lot of other attacks. Limohan (Spanish spelling by Wagner) was a coastal Wokou pirate lord, and they were attacking cities in China, and were partially expelled. Before the Spanish, there were Muslim sultanate Datus ruling Luzon, and further south Buddist temples.

The phonetic transcriptions of these Middle Chinese names by the Spaniards seem very inconsistent. Both Limahong and Vintoquián's last name were 林, which should have been pronounced Lîm. So it made absolute sense for 林鳳 Lîm Hōng to be transcribed as Limahong, possibly for a diminutive form Lîm A-hōng林阿鳳. It made a lot less sense for Lîm Tō-kiân 林道乾 to be transcribed as Vintoquian.
