I'm sure I don't need to bring out the photos to show you how vastly different Cambodians and Vietnamese, the Viet Kinh, not those mixed with Khmer in Southern VN look.
I know what you means, that modern Viet/kinh in the north are hybird Chinese, while Viet/kinh in the south are hybird of Khmer/Cham.

But how about the real Viet/Kinh that didn't mix nethier Chinese or Khmer/Cham ??
I mean the one that originally from "Red river delta" even before the Chinese invaded the Namviet kingdom?

The Viet civilisation is centered in the Red River delta, but most scholars believed they came from Southern China probably about 2,500 BC at the earliest. The ORIGINAL Vietnamese, as in the ethnic Viet Kinh, are most similar to Southern Chinese. Those Southern Vietnamese were mixed with Khmer and Cham who are non-Vietnamese people. They are not ethnically Viet, in the same way the Dai are not ethnically Han Chinese. So the 'original Vietnamese' you talk about are a people that probably came from Southern China, although you could say the natives of northern Vietnam were incorporated.

Alright, I got you for theory of Vietnamese.

How about the Cambodian, are they also came from Southern of China or no, or they originally belong to the Southeast Asia?
If they came from China then how long ago?
Could it be about the same time as Vietnamese which is 4500 years ago?

malay looking is from malay elements from indonesia and malaysia that is not bornean in origin
And Cebu is the center of all things Visayan. It's in the heart of the Visayas. Dont say that Manila has typical Tagalogs if you cant accept that Cebu has typical Visayans.

And why would Borneans somehow be more East Asian-looking? Do they have ancestry that's different from other Malaysians and Indonesians? And how would Cebu specifically attract those types of people? I think you make things up as you go.

wrong there


western visayan center is Iloilo, Bacolod, Dumaguete

eastern visayan center is Tacloban

central visayan center is Bohol and Cebu

but all visayans see each other as brothers/sisters....wether one looks malay or east asian....the bond is strong

Ejay said that I hated Cambodian, but he is nothing better than me at all.
Since he is also deeply hated Tagalog/Negrito and maybe whatever ethnic in the Philipine that he doesn't like the looks.

I love your answer. You have no problem with them because of how they look. You have problems with ugly Tagalogs because they don't look how you want them too. You have a problem man. Get help before you commit a genocide.

Lol, do you realize how stupid you just sounded. You just said that Cebu was the center of the Central Visayans. So how is it not the center of the Visayas??? That's like saying Nashville is the center of Central Tennessee but it's not the center of Tennessee.



Do you see Cebu? It's in the damn center of the region, and the largest city by far. So why are we not allowed to compare Manila to Cebu? You said Manila is center of the Tagalog region. So Cebu isn't the center of the Visayan region? You say that Manila has typical Tagalogs, but Cebu doesnt have typical Visayans. Why the hell not?

And answer me, why are Borneans supposedly different from "Malays" What makes them look more East Asian?
