Yes and no. Yes, because Filipinos immigrated to Hawaii. No, because Filipinos are not Hawaiians, even the Filipino people don't consider themselves as such. The Filipinos who came to Hawaii were either recruited or migrated there in search of opportunities. So it's like taking a Rotuman person from Fiji and bringing them to New Zealand; they may have been from the same 'cultural group' but is not 'native.' In ancient times, Hawaiians began to migrate to Guam and the Philippines. In fact, Filipinos are remotely related to Hawaiians because there has been proof that Filipinos migrated from Hawaii. And it's possible that people of the same cultural group (Polynesians and Micronesians) migrated to different islands/countries. It's like the Samoan and Tongan peoples who live in New Zealand and Australia, their cultures are similar, but they aren't from the same country. They're related because people came from Tonga and Samoa, respectively, who formed communities in New Zealand and Australia. It's the same case with Filipinos in Hawaii.
