                      Filipino-Japanese siblings Roque Go, 80, Pacita Torres, 84, and Estodi Go, 77, from the southern Philippine province of Davao Occidental on Mindanao island, attend an interview on May 24, 2016, in Davao City conducted by the Philippine Nikkei-jin Legal Support Center, Nippon Foundation, and the Japanese Embassy in Manila in preparation for an appeal of an earlier decision by a Japanese court dismissing their petition to be recognized as Japanese nationals. The siblings were among five children of a Japanese national they identify from memory as "Mashimura Maramoto," who, they claim, arrived in Davao before World War II and got married to a local tribal woman but failed to register his family with the Japanese government.
