Do Filipinos still have negative views towards the Spanish?
Generally no. At least not towards actual Spaniards from Spain.Reason is, is that most people who grew up during the Spanish era are dead.We gained a lot of Spanish culture via language, customs, and religion from them and not to mention they were the catalyst to the formation of a unified “Filipino” identity. so we begrudgingly acknowledge that part.The only place where I know there is still some tension between Filipinos and Spaniards is via the Catholic Church itself where Filipino priests and Castillian priests (that have been there since the colonization) have their disagreements in leadership but that's a whole new story.If ever, we have BIGGER anti sentiments towards America, Japan, and China.America b/c they are condecending towards the Filipino government and also their betrayal during the Spanish-Filipino War where they promised our independence then colonized us and raped/murdered many in mindanao.Also we kinda partially blame them for making us poor via corruption and politic involvment (treating us like a submissive puppet state). This is a big issue the Duterte administration is highlighting.We dislike the Japanese b/c of their wartime atrocities rape/murder that they ferverently deny.We also dislike the Chinese because of the South China Sea dispute, they are a big source of our illegal drug imports, and that a lot of Chinese people in the Philippines tend to be the rich business owners while Filipinos stay in the low class jobs. And also Chinese people tend to be a bit racist or “picky” b/c of their idea of marrying Chinese blood only. But again, this is not absolute.But nonetheless, No matter what nationality you are, as long as you are not arrogant, a jerk, and you show appreciation for the culture and people we will like you.Filipinos are a gentle, friendly, and forgiving people so we generally don't harbor hatred towards the Japanese, Spanish, Americans, or Chinese.These opinions are only small and inconsequential and we don't generally think about it.So Mabuhay, Bienvenidos, よこそう, 欢迎, Welcome.
What are the negative effects of Japanese invasion in the Philippines?
There were no positive aspects of the invasion. The occupation of the Philippines followed the usual WWII Japanese pattern of exploitation of resources, forced labor , harsh penalties for infractions of military law , brutalization of prisoners of war and collective punishment for villages suspected of harboring guerrilla forces.The Japanese literally provided nothing of value to the Phillipino people.
What are the positive and negative effects of culture?
Positives: social harmony (in the sense of getting along with one another), a sense of identity and belongingness, a system of order, the very process of widespread and context/people-specific meaning-making that allows members of a culture to interpret things one way and incorporate both traditions and changes into their lives.Negatives: anomie or the feeling of being left out and not properly integrated into a culture which can lead to perceived morally negative actions like suicide, possible loss of a good grasp of individual identity, intense interpellation or forcing of an identity into a person which may lead one to what some may call being brainwashed, excusing and justifying actions and beliefs that may be harmful to others because “this is how my culture is”, stringently structural perceptions which may make one believe that they have lost all agency.I think these are a few positives and negatives of culture which I have mostly repeated from my basic social theory classes.
How do Filipino people feel about Japanese?
I grew up knowing how brutal the Japanese army were during the war. My grandmother who survived the war told us pretty vivid stories about how her family escaped with bullets whizzing inches above her head. Many, if not all of the people I know grew up hearing stories like this or are very aware of the atrocities during WWII through history classes. However, I do know that the Japanese of today were not the ones who invaded the Philippines.I guess what I’m trying to say is, at least in my generation, our first impression of the Japanese were not very good. But as we mature, learning more about people in other countries, including Japan of today, those views gradually change. I for one have grown to admire Japanese culture a lot. Its very rich, very deep and very intact even to this day. If not only for the crazy work environment in Japan, moving there would be a definite goal of mine.(I’m trying to not be biased as much as possible because personally I do admire Japan a lot.)Nowadays, Filipinos view Japan as country who values “quality”, meaning the products that they produce have far better quality than products made in other countries. Filipinos know Japanese to be very strict and very rigid. In the arts, most Filipinos I know, including myself, admire Japanese creativity, whether in design, music or film.So to sum it up, I would say Filipinos of today, though having the thought of WWII in the back of their minds, have a very positive view towards Japan and the Japanese.
Can a Pure Filipino Be an Astronaut?
I think the nationality may be the biggest problem, since the Philippines do not have a space program. You could try to become a naturalised American, but you're up against a lot of competition. Try to get a PhD, preferably in geology or aeronautics or something similar that NASA is looking for. Getting it from an American university would be an advantage, but could be expensive. Stay physically fit throughout. Get your vaccine shots. And if you do apply to NASA, remember this: Very rarely do astronauts get a "fair chance" at going into space. They have to grab it, to put themselves where they'd be the logical choice for a mission. If the mission is sending up a satellite, become the expert on it. If it's going to perform a complicated docking, be the ace at that thing. Write the manual on the procedures. Become the trainer for the rest - all astronauts have to know the basics of the whole mission, but the one that the others go to for answers is the logical choice to send up. Me, I'm a Swede. We got our only astronaut up recently, but he had to wait 14 years for the opportunity. And we're involved with ISS via ESA...
Some says that filipinos aren't that welcome in japan.?
It's very hard for Filipinos to get a visa for Japan now because many of them overstayed in the past. It's nothing to do with WW2. How they will treat you in Japan, depends on each person. If you get a proper visa, you will be welcomed.
