PUGAD LAWIN

 Our side will stand to the placed Pugad Lawin, where the first cry of revolution
took place. The PugadLawin is located in barangay bahay-toro in the city of
Quezon. Sa lugar na ito pinaniniwalaang saby sabay na pinunit ng mga
katipunero ang kanilang sedula na sumisimbolo ng kanilang pagtalikod sa
pamamaraan ng espanyol. Sa tulong at gabay ng mga primaryang batis tulad ni
Dr. Pio Valenzuela at mga estulyador which agrees with the place of the
Pugadlawin where the first cry of rebellion took place. This event is divided into
three. Ang pagpapasya, pagpupunit at unang labanan. Ang pagpapasya ay ang
desisyon ng mga katipunero na labanan ang espanyol. Ang pagpupunit namn ay
noong punitin ng mga katipunero ang kanilang sedula sa bakuran ni Jose
Ramos. At ang unang labanan ay unang pagtagpo ng mga Filipino at Espanyol.
The first battle was the suppression of the katipuneros against the Spanish. It is
true that the incident took place in Balintawak but what we are talking about is
where the first cry occurred where they tore up their sedulas. Ang unang iyak ay
nakapaloob sa pagpapasya at pagpupunit ngunit hindi sa unang labanan. So
that’s why Balintawak cannot be the place of the first cry of the revolution. Na
sinang ayunan ni Teodoro Aguncillo na isang manunulat,at estulyador na kilala
sa kanyang libro na pinangalanang the Revolt of the Masses na pumapatungkol
kay Bonifacio at Katipunan.

 Ako ay naninindigan na sa PugadLawin naganap ang unang iyak ng himagsikan.

Allow me to add to the information previously stated by my group. Ayon kay Dr.
Pio Valenzuela na vise presidente ng katipunan at matalik na kaibigan ni Andres
Bonifacio. He says that it happened in the Pugadlawin because it happened in
the house and yard of Juan Ramos who is the son of the mother of the Katipunan
which is Melchora Aquino or Tandang Sora. Ito ay kung saan mayroong 1000 na
miyembro ng katipunan na nag wika at nag diskusyon ng isang revolution laban
sa espanyol. They decided that it would be held on August 29 1896. Teodoro
Plata was one of those who agreed to this revolution. Siya ay bayaw ni Andres
Bonifacio at ang iba pang kasama sa diskusyon na ito Sipreano, Pacheco,
Remedio, San Pedro. And here it is said that there are many witnesses that the
first cry took place in the hawk’s nest. After their discussion, they took their
sedula and tore it up and shouted long live the Philippines.

 Ang aming argumento at pahayag ay galing sa batis ng isang estulyador na si

Isagani Medina. According to Isagani Medina, this is also said to be the day of
the meeting where the cedulas were torn. Symbol of the slavery of the Indio sa
mga kastila o Espanyol. According to his study of the testimony of Pio
Valenzuela, the vice president of the katipunan, the first cry of revolution
happened and the tearing of the cedula took place on August 23, 1896 and
 August 26, 1896, the attack of the katipuneros on the Spaniards happened. Sa
pangangalap din ni Medina ng mga ebidensya nakuha niya ang isang sulat sa
bahay nina Juan Ramos na anak ni Melchora Aquino na nagsasabi na sa pugad
lawin naganap ang unang iyak. Publications by Medina and others in 1996
provided clearer information as to where the first cry of revolution actually
occurred. Pagkaraan ng limang taon noong 2001 ang Historical National Institute
ay muling pinag aralan ang mga ebidensya. Kasama sa mga nag aral ng mga ito
ay ay ang tatlong estulyador at isang opisyal sa korte suprema. Its members
have again reviewed the literature which contains information and human
statements that agree with it. In their study, the Historical National Institute
issued a statement that the first cry of revolution occurred in the Pugadlawin on
August 26, 1896. In 1963, president Macapagal ordered that the cry of
Balintawak shall be called cry of Pugad lawin. And it should be celebrated on
August 23 instead of August 26.
