immediately repair the Philippines’ status

11. Americans’ actions in establishing the first
formal education in the Philippines was something to
which we should be thankful for. The contents of the
Act No.74 of the Philippine commission was a proof
that we really had received a help from them. We
were given the chance to be educated. And since the
medium of instruction in public schools were in
English, Filipinos were given the chance to learn the
language of our occupants: Americans, the chance to
learn the universal language. Here, Filipinos were
very willing to learn and were glad that they were
given the chance.
12. Then during the Japanese
occupation, Filipinos has not much enthusiasm in
returning to school first because the Filipinos as a
whole were suspicious of the Japanese intension
and second, children focused on helping their
parents tide over the difficult times. Even though
the Japanese allowed to continue using English
as the medium of instruction in
teaching, Niponggo was later injected to be
studied in schools including elementary schools.
13. This abrupt transition of learning from
English to Niponggo caused damage in the sense
of national consciousness because the Filipinos
don’t have their own knowledge. They are
learning another countries’ language while
destroying the main variations of their country’s
languages. Instead of learning their own
language, Filipinos were forced to learn the
others’ that causes them to forget their own.
