Are filipinos asian or pacific islander?
You know what they are their own race. If we start recognizing Filipinos as Pacific Islanders then we’ll have to tell the Japanese as well that they are Pacific Islanders too. & Apparently most American born Filipinos don’t like to be thought of being Asian – like they are ashamed or something.
JUST BE PROUD OF YOUR PINOY PRIDE DAMMIT!
Hi! We’ve already answered your question several times! Filipinos are ASIAN ISLANDERS, because they come from islands belonging to the continent of Asia. Though their culture and traditions are more similar to Pacific Islanders, geography triumphs – hence, since the Philippines is located in Asia, Filipinos are considered as ASIANS – specifically, ASIAN ISLANDERS.
