  • THIS TIME OF YEAR, THE AGUSAN MARSH IS FLOODED.
    All 15,000 hectares of one of Mindanao's most ecologically important areas are covered by vast amounts of water coming from its wide watershed, as far away as Maragusan.
    Some Agusanon Manobo communities have adapted to life here, in the Philippines' Waterworld.
    They take care of the Marsh, and harvest its big freshwater fish.
    Let's take 48 hours to see more!

    Thank you Kumander for your documentary of the Augusan Marshland and the people. Again, as many documentaries you have done in the Island of Mindanao you have exemplified yourself by showing to the world the jewel of Mindanao, the indigenous peoples’ culture and tradition. I couldn’t be much prouder to be from Davao. God Bless you and guide you whatever you do.

    You remind me of the late Anthony Bourdain when he narrated his travels: you both sound very poetic in delivering your stories. Your university educational background really shows on how you explain your observations on people and their culture. You belong to the caliber of Discovery Channel documentary journalists.

    Kumander, you are a proper documentarian. Your video technique, cinematic style, narration, and editing are always so impressive! (When you offer your Master Class, I want to be the first to sign up.) You truly have a gift. I loved everything about this visit to the Agusan Marsh through your eyes, and your ability to get the best quotes from the people you encounter makes the video so much more enriching for us your viewers. "We can change the fish trap's position, but you can't change your wife."🤣 The Manobo are such an admirable people. They have such a beautiful view of life, their legacy, and their place in the world.
    Keep up the great work! This was more than worth the wait.🔥💯🏆 Aloha at Mabuhay!🤙

    Kumander, I think that you have found your calling. Your vlogs stand out from other expat vloggers in the Philippines in that your content about the people, their culture, and the topography, is very interesting and educational. Where others vloggers focus on themselves, your vlogs focus on others. You appear to be honing your skills as a producer of documentaries and hope you continue to do so. It's cool that you share your learning experiences about becoming an organic farmer. You have a lovely family and are no daot. Greetings from Canada, eh!

  • @GranByte
    @GranByte Před 4 měsíci +13

    Apart from the fact that this is one of your best videos in terms of quality and compassion for local culture, it is more importantly (to me at least) a demonstration of how sensible government environmental regulation can work with local communities to protect and preserve the environment. I was moved by how the Agusan locals understood, accepted and welcomed this type of governmental regulation and management for their own benefit. This is NOT what we see in more developed countries like the US where there is so much mistrust (perhaps deserved in some cases) that the people end up working against their own interests!!! GREAT JOB, Anselm. PS: get ready for the EURO 2024 pool in June, my friend!

    • @KumanderDaot
      @KumanderDaot  Před 4 měsíci +1

    Kudos to the community who is protecting this nature’s gift. Lets support them.

    I am also fortunate to spent a week in Agusan Marsh during the baha season last 2021. My favorite is their bulad and kohol, such a tasty treats. The people are lovely, inspiring, and admirable. I also love their sense of humor and their personal crocs, and aswang stories. Such a majestic place and not scary at all.
