Well , first before that, Rizal in his essay expose the several issues that concern our country. the abuses of human rights, the lack of freedom of the press and the lack of representation in the Spanish Cortes.

Rizal notes several possibilities of what will be the Philippines after a century, first on top is: that the Philippines would stay Spanish colony provide its citizens receive not only the rights and privilige of the citizens of the Spanish crown, but also the inherent rights of a human being , second is: that the Philippines will inevitably rise in revolt against Spain if continously exploited and abused several historical events as example , and lastly: and that the Philippines may be conquered by other nations after Spains presence in the country is extinguised.

Well for me this are the factors that over view the predictions of Rizal in his work "The Philippines a Century Hence". Well this is my own perception of Rizal's work. History repeats itself, history may have repeated itself a hundred times now. But today's battle was not the same battle our forefathers were fighting before. It is now a message with an intention of giving a warning. The colonization by the Spaniards which started four centuries ago is now parallel to the colonization of foriegn minds of our own countrymen. Let us always use our minds for thinking what will be the result of what wrong-doing things done by the Spaniards to us.
