Ag Hasa A

A few centuries ago, a man was sitting on a beach sharpening his bolo against a stone, when 3 strangers arrived in a boat. The men said to him something in a foreign language... but any fool could figure out they had asked, "What are you doing?" The man simply replied, "I'm sharpening it."

A few centuries ago, some Spanish missionaries were exploring the island of Mindanao when they came across a man on a beach sharpening his bolo. They walked up to the man and said, "Greetings and God be with you." The man said something in a foreign language... but any fool could figure out he had said, "Welcome to Jasaan."


(In case you didn't know... and you probably didn't since I've never told you before... "Jasaan" is pronounced "HAH-sah-ahn".)
