Carabou

That’s the Philippine’s National animal - the Carabao. It’s the water buffalo. Notice the pronounciation of Carabao is similiar to the Malay equivalent - Kerbau ? The Philippines language has roots in Spanish, Malay, Indian language and a host of other languages.

Kiri, Kanan has the same meaning in Tagalog as it is in Malay. Useful when you are in a taxi giving directions. But then again, English is spoken here too.
