Ambrosio Rianzares Bautista
Bautista solicited funds to finance a campaign for reforms in
the Philippines, later becoming a member of the La Liga
Filipina, Cuerpo de Compromisarios and La Propaganda. In
1896, the Spaniards arrested and imprisoned him at Fort
Santiago, as he was suspected of being involved in the
Philippine Revolution; Bautista elected to defend himself and
was later released from prison.
In 1898, Bautista became the first adviser to President Emilio
Aguinaldo and subsequently wrote the Declaration of
Philippine Independence.
Contrary to common belief, it was Bautista, and not Aguinaldo,
who waved the Philippine flag before the jubilant crowd on
June 12, 1898, during the Philippines Proclamation of
Independence in Cavite.
On July 14, 1899, Bautista was elected to the position of
president in Tarlac's Revolutionary Congress and was later
appointed judge of the Court of First Instance of the province
of Pangasinan.

“Taking into account the fact that the people of this
country are already tired of bearing the ominous joke
of Spanish domination, Because of arbitrary arrests
and abuses of the Civil Guards who cause deaths in
connivance with and even under the express orders of
their superior officers who at times would order the
shooting of those placed under arrest under the pretext
that they attempted to escape in violation of known
Rules and Regulations, which abuses were left
unpunished, and because of unjust deportations of
illustrious Filipinos, especially those decreed by
General Blanco at the instigation of the Archbishop
and friars interested in keeping them in ignorance for
egoistic and selfish ends, which deportations were
carried out through processes more execrable than
those of the Inquisition which nation repudiates as a
trial without hearing. every civilized”

The Philippine National Anthem

The Philippine national anthem, known as "Lupang

Hinirang" (Chosen Land), has its origins in a piece
of music composed by Julián Felipe in 1898. It was
commissioned by Emilio Aguinaldo, the leader of the
Philippine Revolution against Spain and the first
President of the Philippines, for the proclamation of
Philippine independence on June 12, 1898.
Originally titled "Marcha Nacional Filipina"
(Philippine National March), the instrumental
composition was later given lyrics to transform it into
the national anthem.

The Philippine National Anthem

The original Spanish lyrics were written by José

Palma in 1899, under the title "Filipinas." Over the
years, the anthem has been translated into Tagalog,
and the version most commonly sung today is
based on a 1956 adaptation by Felipe Padilla de
León, which closely aligns with Palma's original
Spanish verses.
