Dr. Jose Rizal</A> known as a Philippine national hero was a very
<A HREF="http://www.i-manila.com.ph/centennial/rzluniv.html">multi talented
man</A>. The saying ' the pen is mightier than the sword ' can certainly
be applied to his wrtings, which were often critical of the governing Spanish
officials and friars of his era. In fact his written work frightened and
angered them so that he was charged with sedition. He was found guilty and
sentenced to death by firing squad. On December 30, 1896 a man who only wanted
more for his beloved country and people became a martyr.
<P>
During his short life of 35 years, besides
becoming an opthalmologists, he wrote and published two books titled
<I>"<A HREF="http://www.aenet.org/cockf/cockpit.htm">Noli Me Tangere</A>"</I>
and <I>"<A HREF="http://www.sequel.net/~mannyv/cybrskul/fili01.htm">El
Filibusterismo</A>"</I>. He also wrote a significant amount of poems, articles
(for some papers) and plays. I will concentrate mainly on his poems
because to go over all he has written and do it justice would need more than
one person. Plus I'm so lazy and such a procrastinator it would take forever
to do it.
<P>
The theme of his poems were largely about his longing
for the Philippines since he traveled abroad for the most part of his adult
life. His poem <A HREF="http://pages.prodigy.com/LALA/rizal2.htm#traveler">The
Song Of The Traveler</A> expresses the loneliness he must have felt
while away from home and country. I have assembled a collection of his poems
in the original Spanish as well as translation in English and

know Rizal personally. What I know of him is gathered from what I've read
about him. People will have differing views about who he is and what he
represents. I want to show both sides or arguments about who Rizal is and
let you the reader judge for yourself.<BR>

MANILA, May 01 (PNA-OPS) -- Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim
and National Centennial Commission chairman Salvador Laurel today officially
launched the Dr. Jose P. Rizal Asian Fellowship Program aimed at disseminating
Rizal's ideas on human dignity, peace and freedom not only in Asia but throughout
the world. <BR>
<BR>
Chairman Laurel said the program will establish a continuing exchange of
scholars in the fields of history, culture and arts, politics, business,
economics and medicine within the Southeast Asian region. "We call upon all
the other Southeast Asian Nations to actively participate and support this
program," Laurel said. <BR>
<BR>
For his part, the Malaysian leader expressed his deep appreciation to the
Philippine government for inviting Malaysia to be the first to participate
in the Rizal Fellowship. "We give our assurance that we will honor the trust
given us to execute this noble venture and do justice to the memory of Dr.
Jose Rizal," Minister Anwar said. <BR>
<BR>
Minister Anwar attributed to Dr. Rizal, the Philippines'national hero, the
awakening of Asians. "Had it not been for Rizal, we might still be languishing
and groping in the darkness of colonial subjugation and domination. Thus,
Rizal is much, much more than a Filipino hero. The Great Malayan is in fact
the father of Modern Asia. He is the first man of the Asian Renaissance,"
Anwar said. <BR>
<BR>
Press Secretary Hector Villanueva revealed that Minister Anwar's fascination
with the teachings of Dr. Rizal began when he was 16 years old. <BR>
<BR>
Villanueva further said that Rizal's
"<A HREF="http://pages.prodigy.com/LALA/last.htm"> Mi Ultimo Adios </A> "
has been the guide of Minister Anwar since he was still a student. Thursday,
the Malaysian leader will be conferred a Doctor of Laws Degree in Public
Administration honoris causa, by the Ateneo de Manila University. (PNA-OPS)
