Mexico has always been a part of the Philippines, historically and culturally. In the colonial period, the gallon trade is from Mexico to the Philippines and both are just provinces of Spain hence the Philippines is just a part of Mexico then so both cultures are inter twined now according to the interview conducted by www.diaryongtagalog.net with Mexican Ambassador H.E Julio Camarena in the above video while both the French and Indonesian Envoys admire the works of Filipino artists now living in Mexico like Artist Manny Baldemor  and several others.///michael balaguer
