ALAM MO BA❓

Alam mo ba na ang Pilipinas ang unang nakaisip sa pangalang Malaysia?.

Tama, ito sana ang ipapalit sa kasalukuyang pangalan ng ating bansa noong 1960s na isinulong ni Senator Alonto.

Ngunit hindi ito naisakatuparan kaya't ginamit ito ng Malaya o dating tawag sa Malaysia, bilang bagong pangalan ng bansa nila pagkatapos nilang makalaya sa Britain.

Alam mo ba kung saan saan nagmula ang mga pagkaing nakamulatan na natin? karamihan kasi sa mga pagkaing Pilipino ay bunga ng pananakop ng mga dayuhan o pakikipagkalakalan.
