  2. RECALL THAT: • There are a lot of events that happened not just in the Philippines but also in the other parts of the world.

  3. During the times of Rizal, the Filipino people agonized beneath the yoke of the Spanish misrule.

  4. 1. Instability of colonial administration- The political instability in Spain adversely affected Philippine affairs because it brought about periodic shifts in colonial policies and periodic rigodon of colonial officials.

  5. The frequent change in colonial officials hampered the political and economic development of the Philippines. • No chief executive, no matter how able and energetic he was, could accomplish much for the colony

  6. 2. Corrupt Colonial Officials • Many colonial officials became rich by illegal means or by marrying the heiresses of rich Filipino families. • Mostly ignorant and profligate, they conducted themselves with arrogance because of their alien white skin and tall noses.

  7. 3. Philippine Representation in Spanish Cortes Motive of Spain -gain the support of her overseas colonies

  8. However, it was abolished in 1837 and the Philippine conditions worsened because there was no means b which the Filipino people could expose the anomalies perpetrated by the colonial officials

  9. 4. Human rights denied to Filipinos • Filipinos did not enjoy the freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of association, and other human rights.

  10. 5. No Equality before the law • To the imperialist way of thinking, brown Filipinos and white Spaniards may be equal to God, but not before the law and certainly not in practice.

  11. 6. Maladministration of Justice- • The courts of justice in the Philippines during Rizal’s time is notoriously corrupt. • Justice was costly, partial, and slow. • Wealth, social prestige, and color of skin were predominant factors in winning a case in court.

  12. 7. Racial Discrimination- • During Rizal’s time a white skin, high nose and Castilian lineage were a badge of vaunted superiority.

  13. 8. Frailocracy- “ a government owned by friars” • The colonial authorities, from governor general down to the alcaldesmayores, were under control of the friars.

  14. 9.Forced Labor- known as polo; it was compulsory labor imposed by the Spanish colonial authorities on adult Filipino males in the construction of churches, schools, hospitals, and etc. • Originally : 16-60, 40 days a year • Later: 18-60, 15 days

  15. 10. Haciendas owned by friars- During Rizal’s times the Spanish friars were the richest landlords, for they owned the best haciendas. • The rural folks (including Rizal’s family) who have been living in the haciendas and cultivating them generation after generation became tenants.

  16. 11. The Guardia Civil- • Role: Maintaining internal peace and order in the Philippines • They become infamous for their rampant abuses.

  17. Recall that: • Unlike Bonifacio and Aguinaldo, Rizal waged a non-violent crusade against the oppressors and proved that, “Pen is mightier than the sword.” Not even the armies of Spain and America can stop the Ideas Rizal fought and died for.

  18. Aside from the park being built in Australia, he said there are monuments in Rizal’s honor in Madrid, Spain; Wilhelmsfeld, Germany; Jinjiang, Fujian, China; Cherry Hill Township, New Jersey; San Diego, California; and Seattle, Washington; Reforma Avenue in Mexico City, Mexico; La Molina in Lima, Peru; Litomerice, Czech Republic; and Singapore. Source:globalnation.inquirer.net/
