Well the Arabs and Malays did contribute to the Filipino culture. But please understand, that Arabs are only a very distant and bare influence on Filipinos. But it is there. Some Filipinos, still bare their Arab names because the Philippines was an Islamic state prior to the arrival of Catholicism by the Spanish Empire. This is why, you will generally here this state, "Filipino culture is of Malay stock. With a sprinkle of Chinese, Spanish and Arabic." Filipino culture, is much more of Chinese/Spanish than it is Arabic. During the Santa Cruzan, a Catholic-influenced parade, where hundreds of thousands or even millions of Filipinos dress in costumes parade around a church or a city street; the Sultans are a costume. My dad claims he dressed up as a Sultan, with a sword. We are all Christians too. So yes, even though the Philippines is now a Catholic or Christian nation, Filipinos still somewhat honor their original Malay-Islamic past.
