    What Makes a Person’s
    National Identity?
    - not only about one’s race, ethnicity, and physical
    characteristics

    - values and traits as important indicators


    Who is a Filipino?
    Under the 1987 Philippine Constitution, the following are citizens of
    the Philippines:

    - Those who are citizens of the Philippines at the time of the


    adoption of this Constitution;
    - Those whose fathers or mothers are citizens of the Philippines;
    - Those born before January 17, 1973, of Filipino mothers, who
    elect Philippine citizenship upon reaching the age of majority;
    and
    - Those who are naturalized in accordance of law
    However, citizenship is not the only marker
    of being Filipino. Culture and history have
    greatly influenced the manner Filipinos
    learn, live and behave to date.
