    On The Indolence of The Filipinos

    Uploaded by

    Mark Anthony Tajon
    Rizal wrote this essay to analyze the perceived "indolence" of Filipinos under Spanish rule. He provides 10 causes for this indolence: 1) the hot climate, 2) forced labor systems, 3) trade monopolies, 4) wars and attacks, 5) a corrupt education system, 6) economic monopolies, 7) wrong religious doctrines, 8) gambling, 9) lack of government encouragement, and 10) negative attitudes towards manual labor. Rizal sought to explain the conditions that led to the characterization of Filipinos as "indolent" rather than lazy.

    climate.
