Rizal as Teacher



     Since boyhood Rizal knew the value of good education. He himself planned to established a modern college in Hong Kong for Filipino boys so that he could train them in modern pedagogical concepts, which were then unknown in the Philippines.

     In 1893 he established a school which existed until the end of his exile in July, 19896. It began with three pupils and in the course of time the enrollment increased to 16 and later to 21.

Family Reunion in HongKong



     Rizal's mother suffered so much from Spanish brutality and injustice. The year before 1890 she was arrested on the flimsy charge that she was not using her surname "Realonda" and, despite her advanced age and blindness, she was forced by a cruel Spanish officer of the Guardia Civil to walk from Calamba to Santa Cruz. Fortunately, the Spanish governor of Laguna, who happened to be a gallant cavalier, pitied her and kindly set her free.
