Absolutely no sources for this information other than personal thought. Very vague. I am a Filipino myself and this is farfetched. Anyone who knows the history of The Philippines knows this is innacurate and misleading. Jandela 10:11, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Scholarly sources discuss the presence of Mexicans in the Philippines. See for example Holm, John A. (1989). Pidgins and Creoles. Cambridge University Press. pp. 319–320. ISBN 0521359406. According to that, a military garrison manned largely by Mexicans was established by the Spanish at Zamboanga City. The soldiers married local women; in 1870, about two-thirds of the people there could still speak Spanish, and even a century later, their Spanish-based creole language was still used in radio broadcasts, in schools as a medium of instruction, etc. Further sources in the Google Books search (most not viewable online) [1][2]. cab 11:28, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, anyone who knows the history of the Philippines knows that under Spanish rule the trade route to Mexico was of critical importance and migration is always a part of that. Quezon appealed to a "racial bond" on his first visit to Mexico, for instance. Vigan is a "Spanish-Mexican" city. And so forth. --Dhartung | Talk 18:02, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
