He started the revolution against the Spanish government to attain freedom and to gain control of the country. He was very motivated.\u201d \u2013 Raymond Segundo<br><br>\u201cI prefer Lapu-Lapu, the Datu or Chief of Mactan of the Visayas Island where I came from. Lapu-Lapu is the first to resist Imperial Spanish Colonization by vanquishing Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan at the Battle of Mactan.\u201d \u2013 Meranie Publar Gadiana Rahman<br><br>\u201cI like Andres Bonifacio because he is the leader of the revolution and the president of the Tagalog Republis. He is the founder and the leader of the nationalist \u201cKatipunan Society,\u201d known as the father of the Philippine Revolution against Spanish occupation.\u201d \u2013 Andres Tunac Jr.<br><br>\u201cI like Emilio Aguinaldo because after fighting with the Spaniards who colonized the Philippines for three centuries, he achieved independence from Spain and became the first president of the Philippines under the Malolos Congress.\u201d \u2013 Evangeline Andres<br><br>\u201cI like Gabriela Silang because she is the only female military leader and best known on her role as the female leader of the Ilocano Independence Movement from Spain. She took over the leadership after her husband Diego Silang\u2019s assassination for the Ilocos\u2019 freedom. She was a mother, a partner, a Filipina fearless leader and they called her \u201cHenerala.\u201d She strived to liberate all Filipino women and she was remembered as an empowered Filipina.\u201d \u2013 Aurora Ancheta Huggins<br><br>\u201cI prefer Gregorio del Pilar. He was the youngest general of the Philippine Revolution during the Philippine-American war. He is known as the \u201cHero of Tirad Pass.\u201d He fought and held back the strong invading Americans with only a handful of men; thus, giving time for General Emilio Aguinaldo to escape the invading enemies.\u201d \u2013 Joel Tolentino<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI like Dr. Jose Rizal because he is a reformist and his method to fight&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2227,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[4,11,7],"tags":[],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=1050%2C600&ssl=1",1050,600,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=150%2C150&ssl=1",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=300%2C171&ssl=1",300,171,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=640%2C366&ssl=1",640,366,true],"large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=640%2C366&ssl=1",640,366,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=1050%2C600&ssl=1",1050,600,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=1050%2C600&ssl=1",1050,600,true],"ultp_layout_landscape_large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=1050%2C600&ssl=1",1050,600,true],"ultp_layout_landscape":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=870%2C570&ssl=1",870,570,true],"ultp_layout_portrait":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=600%2C600&ssl=1",600,600,true],"ultp_layout_square":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=600%2C600&ssl=1",600,600,true],"covernews-slider-full":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=1050%2C600&ssl=1",1050,600,true],"covernews-slider-center":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=780%2C500&ssl=1",780,500,true],"covernews-featured":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?fit=1024%2C585&ssl=1",1024,585,true],"covernews-medium":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=540%2C285&ssl=1",540,285,true],"covernews-medium-square":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Untitled-design-2-1.jpg?resize=375%2C250&ssl=1",375,250,true]},"author_info":{"info":["admin"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/category\/features\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Features<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/category\/_news\/hawaii-filipino\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Hawaii -
