  1. And who s acting like palengkera ngyn… mga sinungaling mahilig manira at kelan man di tumanggap ng pakatalo… hmmm… You will always b number 2…

  2. I believe we have great culture. I love Amaya for showing its richness. People who try to hurt others feeling with use of harsh faul words and lies are just losers…

  3. hay naku kawawa naman ang amaya hindi nanaman iprepremiere sa may 3o ! dahil nalaman nila na ang ending ng mara clara ay malapit na kaya siguro hintay nila matapos angmara clara !

    The BINUKOT TRADITION of the SULODNON / PANAY BUKIDNON people of the town of Tapaz in Capiz and the towns of Maasin, Janiuay, Lambunao and Calinog in Iloilo is getting a boost in GMA7′s “AMAYA” but sad to say, they are committing a big historical and cultural blunder for the wrong portrayal of a BINUKOT!

    A BINUKOT is a woman who is supposed to be living in isolation for her entire life. She dwells in a dark room devoid of sun exposure so that her skin will maintain its fair glow. She is given the best food, not allowed to work and she is carried in a hammock when she is moved from one place to another. She is only allowed to go out in veiled attire during the night prior to crop planting and cultivation to dance and chant for a good harvest. Binukots are healthwise frail and weak because of the lack of physical activity, a condition similar to having muscular atrophy. A certain Binukot claimed that her feet bled when she tried to walk for the first time and even with complete adaptation to physical activity, Binukot women cannot attain full muscular strenght and agility. These women also command a good dowry price for men interested to marry them and most importantly, the SULODNON / PANAY BUKIDNON CULTURE and BINUKOT TRADITION is only found in the mountains of WESTERN VISAYAS.

    AMAYA played by Marian Rivera portrays a Binukot but she is ironically a warrior princess fighting off with men and other nemesis in the TV production in broad daylight. The setting of Amaya is situated in pre-colonial Central Visayas which is far from reality since Binukots are women of WESTERN VISAYAS. GMA7 claimed to have conducted a research with UP-Diliman historians regarding Amaya’s plot but the question is: why is there such a big deviation from the original BINUKOT TRADITION of the SULODNONs / PANAY BUKIDNONs?

    The producers of AMAYA should set things straight and clarify issues once and for all. They should classify what kind of a TV production Amaya is: a fiction, a culture and history-based series, etc. If indeed Amaya is fiction then it should not in any way use any of the cultural traditions of the indigenous people because culture and history should never be played nor experimented with. If Amaya on the other hand is historically and culturally-based then it should stick to the facts of culture and history.

    Amaya should be one of the two and not a combination of the two…. for history and culture will never be a part of any fictional story.The characters maybe fictional thats acceptable but the details of culture and history should always be exact and specific. For if not, then we are only mocking our own culture and history as a Filipino.

    Lastly, I would like to clarify that the issue on the wrong portrayal of a Binukot woman in GMA7s AMAYA is just a minor issue because the Binukot’s evolution in becoming a slave and a warrior can very well be justified with the show’s storyline and script although it is very far from reality. The bigger issue here is that GMA7 did not give credit (in its press releases) to the source or inspiration of the Binukot concept. GMA should made it clear that the BINUKOT tradition was taken from the highlands of Capiz (Tapaz) and Iloilo (Maasin, Janiuay, Lambunao and Calinog) and not somewhere else.

    BINUKOT women are maidens who live in the MOUNTAINS of CENTRAL PANAY (Tapaz in Capiz; Maasin, Janiuay, Lambunao & Calinog in Iloilo). BINUKOT women are not SEASIDE WARRIORS from CENTRAL VISAYAS!

    GMA7 CLAIMS THAT THEY HAVE CONSULTED HISTORIANS FROM UP DILIMAN TO MAKE SURE THAT AMAYA IS HISTORICALLY-ADEPT….. BUT HISTORIANS ARE DIFFERENT FROM ANTHROPOLOGISTS! this is a clear manipulation of historical facts
