1. What government position do you think Rizal would occupy for the
benefit of the Filipinos? Why?

- Department of Justice. Because Rizal always practice practices

self-discipline wherever he is. He is a citizen who really
wants justice for all the Filipinos who are being deprived and
undergo oppression. As he really want to state in his novel El
Filibusterismo. Rizal was inspired and a raging fire for justice
was ignited in him.

2. What virtues of Rizal could be best emulated by:

a. Youth of today

 His nationalism, because some of the youth of today they don’t

care about their motherland. His eagerness in his academics.
Being industrious and his love to his family.

b. Government officials

 Leadership. His patriotism, optimism, and undying love for

his country his belief in his countrymen which set him apart.

c. People seeking for change

 His desire to possess happiness. His ability to think,

aspire and strive to rise; and the proper use of hearth,
brain and spirit-all of these combining to enhance the
intricacies, beauty and values of human nature.
