@jim.yamamoto: OLD PHILIPPINES (1959) In 1959, the Philippines was in a period of transition, marked by President Carlos P. Garcia’s nationalist policies that strained US-Philippine relations and a midterm senatorial election. The country also saw the official adoption of the name "Pilipino" for the national language, the early days of television alongside a popular radio scene, and the continuation of a booming cinema industry. #fyp #foryoupage #philippines
