Here is a look at the Lagas Tapado system from Negros Occ. in the Philippines. Master Reynaldo, GM Wilbur "Kikok" Presno, and Instructor Florenico Martin Jr. of Lagas Tapado shows the center line attack/defense.

As you can see, this is a different system than the one Tuhon Gaje made for Eddie Jafri.
