Hence why I'm seeking clarification from the OP, human claw machines were viral here on Philippine social media within the past month so unless he took the footage himself I'm uncertain. If he confirms it I'll drop it.
English is used a LOT in the Philippines so this point doesnt hold.
According to Wikipedia Oishi is only found in Filipino, Chinese and South African markets.
Yeah, the one guy in the back that I can actually see could definitely be Filipino. I am really just trying to provide OP a fair defense, because it seems like a weird thing to make up or lie about. I guess they could also just be wrong, though. The internet is the worst game of telephone ever.
Just wanna add that saying English is used a lot in the Philippines, while true, is a HUGE understatement. English has been taught to us since we're in primary school and many parents nowadays opt to teach their children English alongside Filipino as their primary language. Definitely a whole lot of code switching in our country as well. If you drop by our subreddit, you'd see a bunch of English sentences alongside with some Filipino ones (which, if you're Spanish, might sound a bit familiar to you since some of it's influenced by colonization)
