This document summarizes Republic Act 1425, also known as the Rizal Law, which mandated the inclusion of Jose Rizal's life, works, and writings in the curricula of all public and private schools, colleges, and universities in the Philippines. It provides context around the proposal of the law in 1956, which aimed to strengthen Filipino nationalism and patriotism by educating youth about Rizal. The bill faced opposition from Catholic senators and organizations who argued it would undermine religious beliefs. Senator Claro Recto was a key proponent and defended the bill, arguing it did not intend to attack religion but to develop civic values. After debates, the bill was revised and eventually passed, seeking to honor

What Exactly is Rizal Law?
Rizal Law or RA 1425 is a Philippine law that requires all schools in the Philippines, both public and private, to offer courses on the life, works, and writings of the Philippine national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal.
Why study him?
Why Study Rizal: From The Perspective of Lawmakers
Many Filipinos observed that the sense of Filipino identity was waning. Hmmmm. In response, nationalist policy-makers took action to redirect the nation back to its roots by emphasizing the importance of history as a foundation for national hope and pride.
On April 3, 1956, Senator Claro M. Recto proposed Senate Bill No. 438 and submitted it to the Senate Committee on Education.
“NOLI-FILI BILL”
Senate Bill No. 438, titled "An Act to Make Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo Compulsory Reading Matter in All Public and Private Colleges and Universities and For other Purposes,”
On April 17, 1956, Senator Jose P. Laurel, Sr., who was then the Chairman of the Committee on Education, sponsored the Noli-Fili Bill in the senate and presented it to the Upper House.
“Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo must be read by all Filipinos. They must be taken to heart, for in their pages we see ourselves as a mirror, our defects as well as our strength, our virtues as well as our vices. Only then would we become conscious as a people, and so learn to prepare ourselves for painful sacrifices that ultimately lead to self-reliance, self-respect and freedom.”
The Noli-Fili bill sounds good, right?
NO.
The Catholic Church's Opposition to the Noli-Fili Bill
According to them, the bill was an attempt to discredit the Catholic religion. Since Jose Rizal criticized the Catholic Church, the Noli-Fili bill was met with stiff opposition from the latter’s head and supporters.
According to them, the bill was an attempt to discredit the Catholic religion. Father Jesus Cavanna argued that Jose Rizal’ novels from the past should not be taught in schools because they do not accurately depict current conditions and may give a false impression of the country.
Here are some additional criticisms of the Catholic Church regarding the Noli-Fili Bill:
Among the 333 pages of Noli Me Tangere, only 25 passages are nationalistic while 120 passages are anti-Catholic. 170 lines from Noli Me Tangere and 50 lines in El Filibusterismo were offensive to the Catholic doctrine. The bill might divide the nation. Compulsion to read something against one’s faith impairs freedom of speech and religious freedom. Rizal admitted that he did not only attack the friars who acted deceptively on the Filipinos but also the Catholic faith itsel

CHAPTER III
Let us Explore
Jose Protasio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda was born on June 19, 1861 in Calamba, Laguna. The seventh of eleven children born to a relatively well-off family in a Dominican-owned tenant land in Calamba, Laguna. Jose Rizal lived and died during the Spanish colonial era in the Philippines
In his early childhood, Jose had mastered the alphabet and learned to write and read. His early readings included the Spanish version of the Vulgate Bible. At a young age, he already showed inclinations to the arts. He amazed his family by his pencil drawings, sketches, and moldings of clay. Later, in his childhood, he showed special talent in painting and sculpture, wrote a Tagalog play, which was presented at a town fiesta.
Jose’s father, Francisco Engracio Rizal Mercado, was a productive farmer from Binan, Laguna. He was an independent-minded, taciturn, but dynamic gentleman from whom Jose inherited his “free-soul”. Don Francisco became tiniente gobernadorcillo in their town and was thus nicknamed Teniente Kiko.
Don Francsico great grandfather was Domingo Lam-co, a learned pro-poor or maka-masa Chinese immigrant businessman who married a sophisticated Chinese mestiza. He was born on May 11, 1818 in Binan, Laguna. He was nonetheless educated as he took Latin and Philosophy at the College of San Jose at Manila, where he met and fell inlove with Teodora Alonso.
Jose’s mother, Teodora Alonso ( also spelled Alonzo) was an educated and highly cultured woman of Sta Cruz, Manila. She was also known as “Lolay”, was born on November 8, 1826 and baptized at the Sta Cruz Church.
Dona Lolay was educated at the College of Santa

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.

• Sa bisa ng R. A. 1425 (Batas Rizal), mahigit
55 taon nang kinukuha ng mga mag-aaral sa
kolehiyo ang kursong tumatalakay sa buhay
at mga akda ni Jose Rizal.
• Mahalagang balikan ang konteksto ng
pagpapanukala at ang mga naging kaakibat
na isyu sa pagsusulong nito.
9. Ang Pilipinas Matapos ang
Ikalawang Digmaang Pandaigdig
1. Nagpatuloy ang dominasyon
ng Estados Unidos sa Pilipinas
partikular na sa aspetong
pampulitika, pangmilitar at
pang ekonomiya.
2. Patuloy na pakikibaka ng mga
Pilipino para sa tunay at ganap
na pagbabagong Panlipunan
10. Si Recto at ang Batas
Rizal
• Sa gitna ng mga panlipunang
suliraning ito, isang makabayang
Pilipino ang pumagitna at
naghain ng akmang solusyon.
• Itinuturing si Sen. Claro M. Recto
na mahigpit na oposisyon sa mga
polisiyang isinulong nina Pang.
Elpidio Quirino at Pang. Ramon
Magsaysay.
11. • Maalam sa mga akda at buhay ni Rizal,
naniniwala si Claro M. Recto na integral sa
pagmamahal sa bayan ang pag-aaral sa mga
dakilang gawa ng ating Pambansang Bayani.
“…the reading of Rizal’s novels would strengthen the Filipinism of
the youth and foster patriotism”.
- C. M. Recto
• Sa layuning ito, kanyang isinulong ang
sapilitang pag-aaral sa buhay at mga sinulat ni
Dr. Jose Rizal sa mga mag-aaral ng kolehiyo.
12. “We, too, can prosper, as
other nations which have
become free and have
known how to rely on
themselves with dignity and
self-respect have prospered.
Our people deserve a better
fate, a destiny realized in
happiness and freedom…”
- Claro M. Recto
13. Ang Batas Rizal (R.A. 1425)
• Inihapag sa Senado ni Sen. Jose P.
Laurel ang isang panukalang batas
(Senate Bill 438) na naglalayong
pag-aralan ang buhay at mga akda ni
Jose Rizal noong Abril 17, 1956.
• Si Sen. Laurel bilang Tagapangulo
ng Senate Committee on Education
ang naghapag nito, subalit ang
orihinal na panukala ay inakda ni
Sen. Claro M. Recto.
14. Senate Bill 438
• An Act to make Noli Me
Tangere and El
Filibusterismo
compulsory reading
matter in all public and
private colleges and
universities and for
other purposes.
Ang panukalang
ito ay tumanggap
ng maraming mga
pagbatikos mula
sa mga
Katolikong
Senador.
15. • Ilan sa mga ito ay sina:
Sen. Decoroso Rosales
Sen. Mariano Cuenco
Sen. Francisco Rodrigo
• Ang mga pagbatikos ng mga senador na ito ang
nagbigay-daan para sa mga debate sa pagitan
ng mga laban at pumapabor dito.
• Si Claro M. Recto bilang orihinal na may-akda ng
panukala ang siyang buong-giting na
nagdepensa sa kahalagahan ng panukala para
sa mas malalim na pagkakilala sa pagiging
Pilipino at pagmamahal sa bayan.
16. • Maliban sa mga nabanggit na Senador, ang
Catholic Action of Manila (CAM) ang isa sa
mga pangunahing organisasyon na
naglunsad ng mga kampanya laban sa
panukala:
(1) ang kanilang opisyal na pahayagan, Sentinel ay
inilabas na araw-araw sa halip na isang beses
lamang sa isang linggo at;
(2) hinikayat ang mga Katoliko na sumulat sa mga
Senador at Kongresman na ibasura ang Batas
Rizal
17. Mga Pahayag Laban sa
Panukalang Batas Rizal
• “Compulsion to read something against
one’s religious convictions was no different
from a requirement to salute the flag, which
according to the latest decision on the matter by
the US Supreme Court, was an impairment
both of freedom of speech and freedom of
religion.”
- Principal argument of Senators Rodrigo, Rosales
and Cuenco
18. “A vast majority of our people are at the same
time Catholics and Filipino citizens. As such, they
have two great loves: their country and their faith.
These two loves are not conflicting loves. They
are harmonious affections, like the love of a child
for his father and for his mother.
“This is the basis of my stand. Let us not
create a conflict between nationalism and religion;
between the government and the church.”
- Senator Francisco Rodrigo
19. Rizal’s novels “belong to the past” and it would be
“harmful” to read them because they presented a
“false picture” of conditions in the country at that time.
Noli Me Tangere is an “attack on the clergy” and its
object was to “put to ridicule the Catholic faith.”
The novel was not really patriotic because out of
333 pages, only 25 contained patriotic passages while
120 were devoted to anti-Catholic attack.
- Fr. Jesus Cavanna
(speaker on the symposium organized by CAM)
20. “Since some parts of the novels
had been declared “objectionable
matter” by the hierarchy, Catholics
had the right to refuse to read
them so as not to “endanger their
salvation.”
- Jesus Paredes
Radio commentator
21. “The bill was Recto’s revenge
against the Catholic voters who,
together with Magsaysay, were
responsible for his poor showing in
the 1955 senatorial elections.”
- Narciso Pimentel Jr.
Radio commentator
22. Laban sa Simbahang Katoliko
• Ang lahat ng pagbatikos sa panukalang batas na
ito ay bunga ng paniniwala ng mga Senador na
makakasira sa imahe ng Simbahan ang
pagbabasa sa mga nobela at maging sa
buhay ni Rizal.
• Sa isang pastoral letter na inilabas ng
Simbahang Katoliko, binabanggit na sa 333
pahinang edisyon ng nobela ni Rizal, 25 bahagi
lamang ang naglalaman ng makabayang
damdamin. 120 naman ay inilaan ni Rizal bilang
pang-atake sa Simbahang katoliko.
23. • Kasama rin sa nasabing pastoral letter
ang pagbanggit sa 170 bahagi mula sa
Noli at 50 bahagi mula sa Fili na
naglalayong sirain ang magandang
imahe ng Simbahang Katoliko.
• Sa pananalita ng isang Senador: “But I
cannot allow my son who is now 16 to
read the Noli Me Tangere and the El
Filibusterismo lest he lose his faith”.
– Sen. Rodrigo
24. • Hindi na lamang sa loob ng Senado ang
kontrobersiyang idinulot ng panukalang batas.
• Nakialam na rin ang Simbahang Katoliko
tungkol sa isyu.
• Binantaan ng Simbahan si Recto na ipapasara
nila ang lahat ng mga paaralang Katoliko sa
sandaling maipasa ang nasabing panukalang
batas.
25. Ang Tagapagtanggol
ng Panukalang Batas
• Sa gitna ng mainit na
debateng ibinunga ng
panukalang batas,
nanatiling hindi natitinag
ang nagpanukala nito- si
Sen. Claro M. Recto.
• Sa Senado, hindi
napigilan si Recto sa
pagtatanggol para sa
nasabing panukala
26. • Sa tatlong oras na talumpati
sa Senado, binatikos ni
Recto ang pastoral letter ng
Simbahang Katoliko. Ayon sa
kanya, dinaig pa ng pastoral
letter ang pagkundena ng
mga Dominikano sa mga
nobela na naging dahilan ng
pagbaril kay Rizal sa Luneta
noong ika-19 dantaon.
• Dagdag pa rito, binanggit ni
Recto na ang pagbabasa ng
nasabing pastoral letter
“should open the eyes of
the people to the real
enemies of Rizal and true
nationalism”
27. • Bilang tugon sa bantang
ipapasara ng Simbahan ang
mga paaralang Katoliko sa
sandaling maipasa ang batas,
nakita ni Recto na pabor ito
sa bansa upang
maisakatapuran na ang
nationalization ng mga
paaralan. Katulad ng Senate
Bill 438, hakbang din ito
upang mapalawak ang
nasyonalismo sa mga
Filipino.
• Ayon kay Recto, “They
(Catholic Church) are making
too much profit which they
can ill-afford to give up.”
28. • “Rizal did not pretend to teach religion
or theology when he wrote these books.
He aimed at inculcating
civic consciousness in
the Filipinos, national
dignity, personal pride,
and PATRIOTISM, and if
references were made by him in the
course of his narration to certain
religious practices in the Philippines in
those days and to the conduct and
behavior of erring ministers of the
church, it was because he portrayed
faithfully the general situation in the
Philippines as it then existed.”
- CM Recto
29. • “Noli Me Tangere and El
Filibusterismo must be read by all
Filipinos. They must be taken to
heart, for in their pages we see
ourselves as in a mirror: our
defects as well as our strength,
our virtues as well as our vices.
Only then would we become
conscious as a people, and so
learn to prepare ourselves for
painful sacrifices that ultimately
lead to self-reliance, self-respect
and freedom.”
-Senator Jose P. Laurel
30. • Dahil humigit na sa dalawang linggo ang
matindihang debate at tila walang
pinatutunguhang pag-uusap tungkol sa
panukala, nirebisa ni Sen. Laurel ang
panukala.
An Act to include in the curricula of all
public and private schools, colleges and
universities courses on the life, works and
writings of Jose Rizal, particularly his novels
Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo,
authorizing the printing and distribution,
thereof, and for other purposes.

32. • Malinaw na tinanggal ni Sen. Laurel ang

• Marami pa rin ang umasa na hindi ito
maaprobahan (kabilang na si Cong.
Miguel Cuenco) ngunit nabigo ang mga
ito, sapagkat…

si Recto na ang pag-

damdaming makabayan
ng mga Pilipinong mag-
aaral.
36. • Taong 1956 nang ipasa at
ipatupad ang R.A. 1425.
Makalipas ang 55 taon,
nananatili pa rin ang mga
suliraning panlipunan;
nananatili pa rin ang
pangangailangan ng bansa
sa mga bayani; nananatili
pa rin ang bisa ng mga
sinulat ni Rizal.
• At nananatili pa rin ang
panawagan ni Rizal na
mahalin at paglingkuran
ang Inang Bayan.
37. • Sa panahon natin ngayon na puro
banyagang gamit, wika, kultura na lang
ang tinatangkilik natin hindi maiwasan na
mawala ang pagmamahal natin sa sarili
nating bayan o ang nasyonalismo na
nabaon na sa limot…
38. “Nasaan ang kabataang dapat mag-alay
ng kanyang kasariwaan, ng kanyang
mga panaginip at sigasig ukol sa
kabutihan ng kanyang Inang
Bayan?...Hinihintay namin kayo, o mga
kabataan! Halikayo sapagkat hinihintay
namin kayo!”
- Padre Florentino
El Filibusterismo
39. Thoughts to ponder…
• The most predominantly Catholic country in Asia and it
chooses a mason and anti-cleric to be its national
hero.
• Either the Filipino is a split personality or the greatest
practioner in the art of uniting opposites.
• What a nation!

3. Ang mga Pilipino ay
sentimental o maramdamin.
