Hindi naman siguro masama ang hangarin n gating giobyerno na gamitin ang wikang Ingles sa pagtuturo sa paaralan,maaaring sinisimbolo n gating wika ang ating lahi bilang mga Filipino. Hindi ba’t maganda rin kung makikilala an gating lahi sa iba’t ibang bansa o sa buong mundo ngunit ang wikang Ingles ang pangunahing lenguwahe kung kaya’t kinakailangan din na ito’y ating bigyang pansin upang aralin at sanayin upang hindi naman tayo maging huli at tawaging mangmang ng ibang lahi. Ang wikang Filipino ay tatak ng pagka Filipino, kung kaya dapatnating i[pagdiwang ang Buwan ng Wika. Ito ang ating paraan at nakasanayan na bilang mga Filipino na sariain at kilalanng lubos ana ating sariling wika. Halimbawa ay sa paaralan, sa pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng Wika ay may mga patimpalak na isinasagawa rito tulad ng paggawa ng tula, mga slogan, sanaysay at iba pang ginagamitan n gating sariling wika. Tinutulungan nito ang mga estudyante na linangin ang kanilang mga talento sa pamamagitan ng mga pagsali sa mga contest na ito. Hindi ba’t mas maraming Filipino rin ang tumatangkilik ng mga palabas sa telibisyon at tapakinig ng radio na wikang Filipino ang ginagamit dahil mas lubos nila itong nauunawaan at madalas pang sumasalamin sa totoong buhay at pinagdadaanan ng tao. Ang paggamit ng wikang Ingles at iba pang banyagang mga salitaisa lamang senyales na ang mga Filipino ay matatalino at madaling matuto, sumusunod sa pagusbong ng makabagong panahon at pagtaas ng kalidad ng edukasyon at estado sa lipunan. Ang Wikang Filipino ay dapat gamitin ng kapwa Filipinosa mga pagbabalita sa telibisyon at radio ng sa gayon ay ang lahat ng Filipino ay makakaintindi at mauunawan ang mga nangyayaring nagaganap sa ating komunidad at paligid.Sinasangayunan ko rin naman ang hangarin ni ginoong Arao ng paggamit ng wikang Filipino sa mga tsismis at iskandalo maging sa mga kalaswaan sapagkat hinihila nitong pababa hindi lamang ang kalidad ng ating wika gayundin ang lahing ating pinagmulan.iminumungkahi ko na dapat ang ating sariling wika ang dapat na gamitin lalo na sa mga importanteng kaganapan sa ating bansa upang maipabatid natin sa lahat at magsimula ng pagkakaisa sa pagpapaunlad at paglinanng n gating wika. Ngunit hindi rin naman natin dapat isantabi ang pagpapalawak n gating kaalaman sa iba pang wika tulad ng Ingles sapagkat ito ay isa lamang sa ating paraan para paunlarin an gating mga sarili at nang maibahagi natin ito sa mga susunod pang henerasyon. Hindi lamang ang ating wika ang ating pinapaunlad sa paggamit nito kundi pati na rin ang ating mga kultura at tradis yon bilang mga Filipino kaya tungkulin nating paunlarin at pagyamanin at gamitin ang ating wika.Tulad ng sinabi n gating bayani na si Dr. Jose Rizal na “ang di magmahal sa sariling wika ay higit pa sa mabaho at malansang isda “,hindi makikilala ang mga Filipino kung dir in dahil sa ating wika sapagkat ang wikang Filipino ay para sa mga Filipino kaya dapat na ating ito ay gamitin at ipahayag ang ating mga saloobin upanng lubos nating maintindihan at maunawaan ang isa’t-isa.

How did our great country of the Philippines come about? Where do Filipinos really come from? Who really are our descendants? There are two main theories to help us find our answer to these questions. Beyer's "Migration Theory" and Jocano's "Evolution Theory". I believe Jocano's theory to be to more accurate as to Beyer's and will give you my reasons for believing so.
Noted Social Scientist, Henry Otley Beyer believed in his Migration Theory that filipinos descended from different groups that came from Southeast Asia in successive waves of migration. The different waves or groups were Dawn man, a cave-man similar to Java Man, Peking Man and other Asian homo sapiens of 250,000 years ago. The 2nd wave was the aboriginal pygmy group the Negritos who arrived between 25,000 and 30,000 years ago. The 3rd were the Indonesian group who used tools who arrived 5,000 to 6,000 years ago. And last the civilized Malays who brought the Iron Age culture and culture and were the real colonizers and dominant cultural group before pre Hispanic Philippines. Beyer believed the early migration waves came via land bridges that would occur when the sea level was very low and the latter groups via seagoing vessels such as the balangay. In fact our word barangay originates from the word balangay, which was the Austronesian word for "sailboat".
And while to this day Beyer's theory is still popular among many Filipinos, it has been questioned, doubted, and disputed by many anthropologists and historians of today. Many believe Beyer concluded everything on pure conjecture. Noting he used no specific formula how the years of the waves were calculated.Beyer also presented the past inhabitants with different and distinct physical attributes, yet we know it is impossible to determine or conclude the hair or complexion of skin from fossil evidence alone. A German scientest named Voss also studied the geology of the Philippines and concluded that the Philippines were never a part of mainland China thus questioning the validity of Beyer's land bridges. So unfortunately for Beyer, he lacks definite evidence, either historical or archaeological to support his theory. Without concrete proof, it would almost be like theorizing the world is flat like so many believed back then

continuation....
To me, renowned Filipino anthropologist Felipe Landa Jocano's "Evolution Theory" seems more accurate to what truly occurred. He theorized our country was first inhabited by the products of long process of evolution and migration. His research indicated the people of Southeast Asia shared the same culture, beliefs and practices and even similar tools and implements before eventually going their seperate ways to migrate to the Philippines, New Guinea, Java and Borneo. He stated there was no way to determine if they were Negritos at all like Beyer had earlier concluded.
In 1962, a skull cap and a portion of a jaw, presumed to be a human being was found in the Tabon Cave in Palawan Province. This proved there were inhabitants as early as 21,000 or 22,000 years ago. They indicated that they were hunter-gatherers and used stone flake tools. This finding was dubbed the "Tabon Man" and said to resemble Java Man and Peking Man. This discovery helps us realize that the first inhabitants of the Philippines did not come from the Malay Penninsula. Because of this, Jocano believes it is not correct to characterize the Filipino culture as Malayan in orientation.
Also through Jocano's research, he found that the prehistoric islands of Southeast Asia were actually the same population as the combination of human evolution that occurred in that area about 1.9 million years ago. Proof he said can be found in the fossils discovered in different parts of Southeast Asia and in the recorded migrations of other peoples from the Asian mainland.
There are more research being done today as we speak, but the information being discovered supports more Jocano's Theory rather than Beyer's. That is why I believe without a shadow of a doubt, that Jocano's "Evolution Theory" to be a more precise account of what truly happened and what we can credit to what helped create the first Filipino.
