[quote=AN]If a group of people are native to islands in the Pacific, are they not Pacific Islanders?[/quote]

By that definition, then Japanese are Pacific Islanders too since Japan is actually consists of islands in the Pacific.

[quote=AN][quote=bearishgurl]The GE requirements of the first two years of college can be obtained anywhere and the CC’s are much cheaper (and far less crowded) in these classes than universities. [/quote]
Although this is true, the one thing you’ll miss out is the college experience of the 1st two years, where you experience the dorm life and making new friends. I missed out on that and I will never be able to experience that. Money can be made later but certain experiences in life only come once.[/quote]

Freshman and sophomore year in the dorms were two of the best years of my life. Send your kid away! The friends I made are still, 15 years later, my closest.

The reason why Filipinos are considered separately is because of the history of them being a US territory. As such, they were considered to be different than other Asian/Pacific Islanders.

Even though they are no longer a US territory, this separation in statistics lives on.

Now as for what Filipinos really are.

They are part of the Malay race which basically includes Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia. The 3 nations are really one people, except they were colonized by different type of white folks. Therefore, they adopted different ways of romanizing their languages.

As for the Malays and their relations to the Pacific Islanders. The relationship is quite close. As Pacific Islanders originate in large part from the Malay people.

Are the Malays and other East Asians the same? Absolutely not. Completely different stock in term of origin.

Are Malays, East Asians, Pacific Islanders all counted into one single basket statistically? Yes, but excluding the Filipinos for reasons given earlier.
