Have you ever wondered what another countries

army is like? Well I can tell you about the

Philippines! The first will be about Philippines

training. The second thing will be about when the

U.S gave the Philippines independence. The last

thing will be about the U.S and the Philippines

relationship. Well let’s get started!

Now we start with where the Philippines train. The

training school has been in Baguio City for one

hundred years. The Philippines training school

started on October 25,1898. On September 8th,

1926 the training school was renamed to Philippine

Constabulary Acadamy. So that’s the Philippine

training school information.

Now I’m going to talk about the Philippines

independence. In 1901, when the Philippines lost the

war verses the U.S, then the U.S took over the

Philippines. Then years later the U.S gave them

independence. When the Philippines got their

independence the president was Ferdinand E Marcos.

Well now that that’s done so now onto the U.S and

Philippines relationship.

Now we are onto the Philippines, U.S relationship.

After the Philippines lost the war versus the U.S the

U.S took over the Philippines. During the war all the

way to now the Philippines army is called Hukbong

Katinar ng Pilipinias. In WWII the Philippine

military was incorporated in U.S Army Forces Far

East. Now that’s it for the U.S Philippines

relationship.

Have you wondered about how foods flavor the

dishes we eat? For example, Saba makes some

dishes taste like you’ve found your perfect day

companion. Saba is nice and sweet. Calabasas

makes dishes taste sweet also. So, Calabasas is

sweet and soft. Gabi taste like acid. So Gabi

might taste sour. Different foods make dishes

taste different.

The Philippines

In the Philippines money is called “peso”. In this section you

will find topics such as. Money facts in the Philippines. Ranges

of money and what they are worth. Food in the Philippines .

Quick facts about the Philippines.

http://food.wowphilippines.com/

http://photo-dictionary.com/phrase/9639/Philippine-money.html

Money in the Philippines, in the Philippines they call money

“peso”. The name of money is similar to the Mexican name

which is also “peso”. The coins range from 1-5-10-25, their

range of coins is very similar to our coins except we have a 50

cent coin and a dollar coin. Their money ranges from 1-1000

pesos.

http://pinakabago.blogspot.com/2010/12/philippine-moneys-new-look.html

What money is worth in the Philippines . Just a euro is worth

60 pesos in the Philippines. But a dollar in U.S money is worth

less! The American dollar is actually only worth 44 pesos. Also

the newest series of bank notes was released in 2002.

http://guides.wikinut.com/img/2xu5zbqlpjbq0zqk/New-Philippine-Banknotes

Food in the Philippines. In the Philippines they have food such

as batsoy and buckayo. Batsoy is very gross sounding in my

opinion, it is made of pork organs in broth. But that may

sound gross but buckayo is made of sweet coconut and has

either brown or white sugar. In the Philippines rice is a very

common dish and is a staple food.

The Philippines base most of their sports in the water because

they live on a long string of islands and have lots of coral

reefs. Their climate is also very warm their yearly average

temperature is 80 degrees. Most of the reefs are dying and

are losing their natural beauty, because of the over fishing

and all of the pollution.

In the 1950’s, the Philippines

Games gold medal in 1951. In 2000 PBA (Philippines Basketball

Association) celebrated its 25th anniversary. In 2001 Kobe

Bryant went to the Philippines as a player coach. Also

basketball has been in their culture for many years before
