of course the chinese. .

I agree. Dili ni joke ha... Pero long before the Spaniards arrived in the Philippines, sige na ug trade ang Chinese diri sa atoa, some even migrated.

pero si Magellan ang ga introduce sa Pilipinas to the Europe..sila baya gamhanan sa una.

I don't believe its the Chinese at all. If anything the early foreign settlers were heavily influenced by Hindu/Indian culture. Why do you think the large Pre-Spanish kingdoms were ruled in castes by rajahnates - rajahs and datus - which are Sanskrit terms.

even China discovered America in 1421

Gavin Menzies research is widely criticized and many of his claims have been and are continuously debunked.

Actually,Magellan never discovered the Philippines.He rediscovered the Philippines.

Pag abot sa mga Kastila nakit-an na nila na daghan influence ang mga natives. But I never heard of the Mongolian story, as far as I know Mongols are not seafarers they failed in invading Japan terribly because of the sea factor.

Whether it was the Hindu kingdoms, the Arabs, the Chinese you have to have documentations, and the Europeans understood how that worked. All else is left to be either discovered or are lost.
