    After many years, I finally made it down to ZAMBOANGA, a lovely town in the very South Western corner of the Philippines!
    Believe it or not, they speak SPANISH here! Well, it's not 100% Spanish, it's called Chabacano which is more of a Creole (mixed) dialect that developed when the Spaniards settled here almost 500 years ago.
    Not surprisingly, Zamboanga is dubbed "Asia's Latin Town" for its strong roots in Spanish culture that can be seen not only in the language but also in the cuisine and lifestyle.
    I've had a GREAT time here so far and I hope this video opens your eyes to a lesser-known part of the Philippines -- my favorite country in the world.

      The words: kotse (car), mesa (table), silya (chair), oras (time) ARE actually Tagalog words that were ingrained the last 400 years due to Spanish occupation. PERO (but) "uno, dos tres" WE DO not USE ALWAYS.
      Remember: if you ask for time, Filipinos answer with "ala/s una, dos etc" PERO they dont answer that way when you ask how many or how much. They revert to true Tagalog numbering which is isa (1), dalawa (2), tatlo (3) etc.

      Not totally incorrect because the spaniards brought workers from Mexico and S. America when they colonized the islands. In Zamboanga we count in spanish. We say 'coche', we also say 'quemao and otro lao' etc. We cook tamales with rice masa and use banana leaves like the cubans. As a matter of fact, I am more fluent in spanish than tagalog.

      La mayor parte de los colonizadores partían desde México, por aquel entonces Nueva España, en tiempos del galeón de Manila, que fue la primera ruta comercial global, Manila, Acapulco, Cádiz. Se habló español en Filipinas junto con el resto de lenguas nativas hasta que los Estados Unidos asesinó a más de un millón y medio de hispanohablantes y fue tratando de destruir todo lo relacionado con La Hispanidad. La constitución de Filipinas todavía se hizo en Español y fue idioma oficial hasta 1987 creo recordar.
