The World Fire Knife Competition holds a record of being the grandest among the fire-knife dancers and Polynesian people. The fire-knife dance which was a form of a warfare had transformed into something beautiful in the name of performing arts and cultural heritage. It is the Superbowl of Polynesia. Since it started in 1993, the competition had always brought the…
Introducing, Wave, the newest Filipina super heroine armored with Kampilan, the weapon that Lapu Lapu triumphed with against Magellan! Yes! You read it right! Marvel is proud to announce that she is coming out on May 8 saving the Earth/Midgard. After I wrote a recent post, “The Women to Follow this 2019“, I felt a bit of regret for not…
