Trivia
This was the only Hispanic telenovela dubbed in English & Cebuano version in the Philippines, played by Citynet Television & GMA Cebu and Davao.
In Citynet, it was dubbed in English through the trends of playing Japanese sci-fi TV series dubbed in English (in Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation). After Ka Ina ended in Citynet as the first English-dubbed Hispanic telenovela in the said country, Citynet never borrowed any telenovela to be dubbed in English.
Catalina Miranda and Maniña Yerichana are both beautiful and young women. The first is an assertive and independent engineer educated in Europe; the second, the most powerful and feared woman in the jungle, a legendary priestess born to a Dutch gold digger and a Yanomami Indian Princess.
