President MANUEL LUIS QUEZON: Message to the People of the Philippines | Circa 1920s

A PilipinasMabuhay100 exclusive: President MANUEL LUIS QUEZON, Second President of the Philippines (First President of the Philippine Commonwealth --- 1935-1944), in a speech broadcast to the Filipino People in the mid-1920s.
A RARE RECORDING:
According to President Quezon's grandson, Manuel "Manolo" L. Quezon III, Undersecretary for the Presidential Communications Operations Office under Philippine President Benigno Aquino III, this speech was delivered by Quezon, then serving both as Senator of the Philippines and President of the Senate, after he was diagnosed with tuberculosis and "assumed that he didn't have much longer to live".
Quezon first entered politics as a local councillor and Governor of the Province of Tayabas, eventually representing the 1st congressional district of Tayabas in the National Assembly (later known as the House of Representatives, of which he would be elected Majority Leader). He was appointed as one of the Philippines' two resident commissioners to the US House of Representatives, serving from 1909-16. Quezon would return to Manila to be elected as a member of the Senate, representing the 5th Senatorial District. He was then elected as the first President of the Senate of the Philippines.
Quezon won the Philippines' first national presidential election as the Nacionalista presidential nominee in 1935 --- he was elected in a landslide victory, garnering 68% of the popular vote, defeating Emilio Aguinaldo, who is considered the first president of the Philippines. He took his oath as the first President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines on 15 November 1935.
During his tenure, President Quezon led the Philippines on its first steps towards full independence. He painstakingly established a government-in-exile in the United States during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines and lifted up the morale of the Filipino People in the midst of war through his frequent radio broadcasts. Just as war was brewing, the Constitution of the Commonwealth of the Philippines was amended, changing the terms of president and vice president from six years to four years with the possibility of re-election. Quezon won a second term, again by a landslide, in the 1941 presidential election, garnering 82% of the popular vote. With Quezon and Osmeña winning every single province in the Philippines, the Nacionalistas captured all twenty-four seats in the Senate, the first and last time that the upper chamber of Congress was swept by a single political party. Bar three seats, all members of the House of Representatives were Nacionalistas.
As a result of the ongoing war, the US Congress extended both the terms of Quezon and Osmeña in 1943, four years after their historic re-election. His former colleague in the Senate, Jose Paciano Laurel, would be tasked by the occupying Japanese forces to form a separate government, assuming the top helm as president of the Japanese-sponsored administration --- the Philippines effectively had two presidents during the Second World War.
Quezon would never live to see the liberation of the country he dearly loved.
President Quezon died of tuberculosis in Saranac Lake, New York on 1 August 1944. Vice President Sergio S. Osmeña took his oath as President of the Commonwealth of the Philippines that same day.
In a historic landing on the shores of Leyte island, President Osmeña returned to the Philippines with General Douglas MacArthur and American and Filipino liberation forces two months later --- the Battle of the Philippines soon commenced, beginning the long, difficult war to free the country from Japanese control. By 15 August 1945, with the surrender of Japanese forces, the liberation of the Philippines was complete.
Two years later, Quezon's dream would be realized at last --- the Republic of the Philippines was finally inaugurated as a sovereign, independent and democratic nation on 4 July 1946, with Manuel Acuña Roxas as the newly-elected President of the Philippines.
"I would rather have a country run like hell by Filipinos than a country run like heaven by the Americans, because however bad a Filipino government might be, we can always change it."
----Manuel Luis Quezon | 1878 - 1944

    Hey..keep it down guys. A healthy discussion is much appreciated - pero dapat walang personalan. President Quezon, I'm sure, is an inspiration to all of us - his unwavering faith in the Filipino kept our morale high in the midst of war. He was one of the best Presidents we've ever had. Both America and Spain influenced our country in many ways - culture, religion, government - good or bad. You decide. The only thing that matters now is that we use those influences for the greater good. =)

    +Cisco De Leon I always have this kind of conversation with my Mexican friends. I'm American, but I grew up in the Philippines and was educated there, from elementary to university. I noticed Mexicans, and other Hispanics love their Spanish culture. We as Filipinos, we don't feel the same way. Our ancestors actually fought off and won against the first Spaniards who came to the Philippines. It was after that the Spanish army came back in full force and were able to take over the Phil. From there on the Spaniards changed our religion, language, culture, and even our genetics. Half-mixed meztiso/meztisa were considered of a higher class of people compared to the darker skinned, pure Filipinos. Then when Spain lost to the US, they leave and sell the PI to the US for $20 million. Filipinos have a better respect for Americans because although they controlled our politics, they never tried to change our culture or religion. So not all Filipinos feel the same way about Spain, no offense sir, just my observation.

    Please don't get me wrong, I'm not justifying the American's occupation of the Philippines, that wasn't my point. My point was, Filipinos don't share the same view the Mexicans, Venezuelans, Nicaraguans, or other Latin nations have of Spain. Filipinos don't think too highly of them hence we stopped using Spanish and English was the more modern, international language so we went with that. You are putting too much thought into this.

The Americans started to phase Spanish after the American conquest of the Philippines from Spain and the Tagalog elitists in Manila wanted control of the country and conspired withe americans to make tagalog(Filipino) the national Language alongside English.

Itinuturo rin ang wikang Kastila sa mga pamantasan hanggang mga taong 90s. Hindi ipinagbawal ng mga Amerikano ang paggamit ng wikang Kastila, sa halip binigyan ng mga Amerikano ang wikang Kastila ngunit ang mga sarili nating wika---HINDI. Heto ang sinabi at isinulat ni Quezon (iyong taong tinitignan mo sa itaas ng videong ito), "Neither Spanish nor English are native languages in the Philippines. There are millions of Filipinos who read and write their native dialects, but who do not read or write either Spanish or English, and they are unwisely, nay, unjustly, deprived of the franchise. To demand the capacity to read and write English or Spanish as a prerequisite to the use of the ballot is wholly unreasonable.”--- Hathitrust archived books @t The Filipino people ask justice [microform] : speech ... in the House of representatives February 13, 1913 Main Author: Quezon, Manuel Luis, 1878-1944.

One can only hope or dream that this may possibly put Spanish back into the public Filipino consciousness as a language of unity and recuperation and not that of pain and resentment towards the past. I always told my Latinx friends that although we are an Asian nation with predominant Hispanic influence, they're more likely to find a Filipino Hispanophone in the states than on the islands should they ever come to travel and visit.

    +impalabeeper They were thought by the Americans (with clear anti-Spanish agendas) that Spanish was irrelevant. Thanks to the American school system implemented in the Philippines, together with the mass emigration of the Spanish-speaking elite and the destruction of Spanish-speaking towns and cities during World War II, the Spanish language finally became irrelevant to modern Filipinos.

    impalabeeper There is no way that a language like Spanish could be irrelevant especially if it was a colony of Spain and at least 20 countries speak it especially in the US now. It became irrelevant when the people succumbed to it because many natives only knew their local dialects and they were not strong like the Puerto Ricans who the majority speak as their main language. If it was not for the Americans, all Filipinos would been speaking mainly Spanish. Instead most people speak English with Spanish last names. That is a little messed up now. Though it's never too late to reintroduce as equal to English.

    Joe R Records have been contentious however on how many Filipinos actually speak Spanish in 30's. Some say it is less than 10% but others say 60-70%. As an official language though, I think it is too late to classify Spanish as one. Modern Filipinos can't speak Spanish and most of our official text is either in English or Tagalog. If we try to revive Spanish use, I think it would be better to teach Spanish along with German, Italian, French and Japanese as part of mandatory curriculum to learn at least one foreign language. This is the system here in Ireland and it's working well to promote multilingualism in Ireland. But Irish and English are the official languages in everyday use even though not many speak Irish actually for everyday use.

She said that people there hate on Tagalog publicly spoken because they think it's just an imperialist tool from Manila. What's interesting to note is that English is considered equal to Bisaya over there. Unlike Manila, they do not consider English colonial and unpatriotic. And I'm from Manila, so I know.

    Well there are still some though very few that still speaks Spanish (The true Philippine Spanish Dialect a dialect which is somewhat a mix of Castilian and Mexican. e.g. Use of Castilian Spanish Patata over Mexican Spanish Papa which means potato. And vice versa use of Mexican Spanish Zacate over Castilian Spanish Césped which means grass. Also archaisms are used which are no longer in use in Modern Spanish such as : En denantes which means a while ago that is more known today as hace un tiempo though hace un tiempo is also used by younger generations , and the use of también no over tampoco which means neither. Also Uniquely Philippine Spanish like in Spain the familiar form such as Vosotros and Tú preferred over Formal form Ustedes and Usted which is only used for formalities such as addressing someone of higher ranking, or someone older, other than that Familiar form is almost always used. Philippine Spanish over Modern vs Latin American Spanish: Tagalog (Filipino): Asan ba kayo kanina? English: Where were you a while ago? Ph Spanish: ¿Dónde estabaís en denantes? Modern Spanish (Spain): ¿Dónde estabáis hace un tiempo? Modern Spanish (Latin America): ¿Dónde estaban hace un tiempo? Chabacano (Spanish Creole): Onde/Donde/Dondi ya kamó/vosotros/bujotro/vusos endenantes?

It was only after the war that the united states and all things stateside became popular, thus putting english on its pedestal as the officially language and later brushed spanish aside. Heck! It was never mentioned in the history books that over 60% of the filipino population spoke spanish after the spanish-american war. American brainwashing at its finest.

    It saddens me to know that the Dialecto Español de Filipinas is currently declared as "almost extinct", as there were only few filipinos who retained this dialect and most of the newer generation of speakers of spanish tend to follow either the Iberian(Castillian) or the Latinoamerican (notably Mexican) style of speech... Upon knowing this, I myself voluntarily restudied our own spanish dialect and gave up the iberian tongue... It was already depressing to discover that the chavacano zamboangueño is already on its way to dehispanization because of english prevalence, and that the other chavacano dialects are becoming extinct (ermitense's already extinct because of the WW2), and now this? Filipinos are not greatful to the language that united all of the different ehnic groups, creating the notion of "the filipino people"... Ever since the filipinos gave up the spanish language, we became so regionalistic that we also forgot how to become "just one nation"... Shame, shame, shame!

Whereas, we are always hoping and asking help or aide from foreign nations who colonizes us and taking it as they're obligation unto us. It is somehow planting a seed unto our mentality that someone will come to help us, and this mentality was carried on from generation to generation. Can't you see why our streets are now slowly becoming a home of the indigenous people? Yes they are our brothers and sisters in our lands, but they are supposed to have there own lands that is enough to give them food, yet they still risking they're lives on the busy streets asking for alms and food. Because they believe that a stranger can gave them what they need? they are suppose to provide there families food that are plowed from there own lands. Is there any difference between them and us? Too much generosity and democracy are sometimes too selfish. No one is to blame, but doing nothing is all our accountability.

The leaders of our independence movement back in the 30's and 40's knew that we had to be under a single language which Filipinos can use to communicate with fellow Pinoys who come from different provinces. Tagalog was chosen because it is the language spoken in the national capital, Manila.
