For Malaysia and for the Philippines. So, Nico will be asking me questions on Malaysia. And I will be asking you about the Philippines. So, let's see how well we know our history. Oh, hence the traditional wear. Oh, right, right. Pose! This isn't even my foundation. This is just some upside-down white shirt. Because it had print. I couldn't find my long-sleeve white shirt for this. Oh, you need to wear a white shirt? Yeah, inside. So... Yeah! I hope you guys enjoy this video. Don't forget to like and subscribe. And let's... Jump right into the... Oh, oh, oh. Fun fact, Hazzy. About this thing. It's... If you can see, it's a bit see-through. Basically, kind of like the... Spanish designed it. And they designed it so that, you know... If we go into, like, events... We can't really hide weapons. Oh... So, we can't really conceal weapons over here. Basically, kind of like that. Anyway. Go on. Let's, uh... You wanna start? Alright! Let's go! So, who's gonna start first? Uh... Okay. Rock, paper, scissors, shoot! Yay! Okay. You know, I never win, um... Rock, paper, scissors. What is the name of the empire from Sumatra... That took control of a large part of Malaysia in the 7th century? Is it Majapahit? Nope. Sriwijaya? Yeah. It's one of the two! I don't know which was the biggest one. Okay. So... The smallest social unit in the Philippines... Was called the barangay. Which means small village. Where did the word barangay come from? Easy. So, we used to have these boats called balangays. We would bring people to the boats. I don't like Niko. Ah, maybe my questions are easy. Dammit. So... It was a Sriwijaya empire, right? So... Which prince... Captured Malacca? And... Took over the empire and... Formed the Malacca empire. They founded the port of Malacca. And... They basically managed to trade... From India to China. Through the Malacca Strait. He's a prince? Do you want a hint? Yes. One of your cousins has this name. Skandar? Give me the full name. Skandar? Stop it! Take your time. Sultan Iskandar... II? Nope. It's Iskandar Shah. I'll give you... Maybe like half a point for that one. I'll give you another half. If you guess the century. 1800s? F**k. Dang. My thing is so easy. Nico can answer this question for sure. We'll see about that. I don't really know. A Spanish expedition that will go on to be the first to circumnavigate the planet which the Philippines in 1521. Who led the expedition? Magellan. And where is he from? Full name! Ferdinand Magellan. From Portugal. But he served Spain. My questions are easier than yours, Nico. Alfonso de Albuquerque captured Malacca in 1511. Where is he from? Portugal. Am I right? The Spanish came to the Philippines for spices. But at the end of the day, they were disappointed to learn that Philippines could only produce one of their coveted spices. What is the spice? Do you want an A, B, C, D? Okay, why not? But you're gonna get half point. Okay, I mean, why not? Alright. Let's go. Let's try. A. Lemongrass. That's a lot of those. B. Chili pepper. That's a lot of those as well. C. C for cinnamon. D for annatto seeds. I'm gonna go with annatto seeds. Am I wrong? Yes, you're wrong. Is it lemongrass? No. Oh, it's chili? No. Oh no, it's cinnamon? It's cinnamon! So the British East India Company seized the state of Penang in 1786. They named the capital of Penang, what? Georgetown. Yeah. This one should be easy. If you can't answer this, you should renounce your citizenship. In 1543, who renamed the islands Las Filipinas? Is that one point or half point? Because you don't get the full name. Is it? When was KL founded? Very, very long time ago. Yeah! No ----, Sherlock! You want multiple choices? Okay. 1856, 1857, or 1858, or 1859. I'm gonna go with 1856. Wrong. Whatever. It's 1857. Who led the longest revolt in the Philippines during the Spanish times? The longest revolt? It was 85 years from 1744 to 1882. Hard. Very, very difficult. Multiple choice or half points? Okay. I guess Francisco Dagoboy. There's a bonus question for this one if you want to redeem. Half point? Yeah. So, Francisco Dagoboy led the longest revolt. How did that happen? Apparently, a priest refused to give his brother, Sagarino, a Christian burial when he died in a duel. Oh, okay. So, in the 1940s, Blank intercepted a letter to General Popham in Malaysia. General who? General Popham in Malaysia that talked about the weakness of the Singapore base. This was given to the Japanese. Who intercepted the letter? German. Go on. Final answer. Multiple choice, please. Well, I mean... So, A. The Germans. B. The Japanese. C. The Italians. Their allies, I mean their group, their gang. Yeah, their gang. I would say the Japanese. Wrong. Yes, the Germans is it. Interestingly, I just found out that the British did seize Manila for a short while. What is the name of the war? The name? Yeah. Who names the wars? World War II? I don't know. I don't know. There's a name here. War of Manila Bay? Wrong. Why are you so happy? It's called the Seven Year War or the French and Indian War. Nobody remembers those things. So, since they know about the weakness of the Singaporean base, they decided to invade Malaysia in 1941-1942. Where did they enter? Kota Bharu. Okay. Can you guess one? There are two towns in Thai. In Thai? Yeah. Is it Bangkok? Wait, wait, no. Is it Hat Yai? Can I look at the map? No, it's Batani and Simora. La Solidaridad was an organization created in Spain on December 13, 1888. Who is the first editor of La Solidaridad? Oh, no. I'm blanking right now. I mean, I have multiple choices. Yes. A is Marcelo H. del Vila. I'm sorry if I butcher any of these names. B is Juan Lina. C is Graziano López Jaena. A is my section in Ateneo. D is Pedro Patim. I'm gonna go with Del Pilar. Final answer? Wrong! It's Graziano López Jaena. Oh, no. That's embarrassing. A is my section in Ateneo. That's embarrassing. Who is the first Malaysian Mian? Tar. Don't go out the wrong one. Oh, Tar. Wow. Okay. The Spanish lasted in the Philippines for 333 years. That's a long time. After signing a treaty which withdrew Spain from the Philippines, Guam, Cuba, and Puerto Rico. What is the name of the treaty? Versailles. Final answer? I'm gonna go with Treaty of Paris instead. Because they had it in Paris. You are right! Ah, yes! When was Singapore pushed out? 1963. It says 1965. So, remember when I said Spanish people didn't think that they could get much from the Philippines because of that one-spice thing? And then the Americans came and they wanted the Philippines for some reason. What do historians believe America was interested in the Philippines? I mean, there's a lot. There's the strategic position. You can stop there. Huh? You are correct already. Oh, okay, okay. How many different prime ministers have there been in Malaysia? Okay, so there's... There's Tar. There's Najib's dad. And then Najib's grandpa. And then Mahathir. And then dude after Mahathir. And then there's Najib. And then after Mahathir. So... Am I right? Again, again! There's Tar! This is gonna take a while. I counted eight. What was the first book published in the Philippines? The first book? The Bible? Or is it... What? What is it? It's the... It's the Doctrina Cristiana. It was published during the Spanish period and contains prayers and some religious acts and beliefs that all Catholics should follow. Man, I was almost right. The Bible? I think it's the Burong, you know? I think it's only... It's because I only have half of a Burong on. So maybe if I wore the full outfit, I'd get full points. Maybe because mine is like modern, you know, traditional wear. Yeah, and it's only half. So it only counts for like a third of the questions. So yeah, thank you for watching.
