Did you agree with the differentiation between the West and the East? Where can you find the
Philippines in distinction? What are the factors that makes the Philippines similar or different from its
Asian neighbors? Is there also a difference between regions or ethnolinguistic groups in the
Philippines?
As an individual living in the Eastern part of the world, I do agree with the differentiation cited about
between the West and the East. Between the distinction above, I can see that the Philippines belong to
the eastern part. What makes the Philippines similar from its Asian neighbors is the culture and its
geographical features. Philippines is mixed in cultures, languages and religions, every region has its own
language besides Tagalog, there are also different culture from every different ethnic groups and we
also have different religious belief.
