DILEMMA
OF THE
LAST
FILIPINO
BY: HILARION M.
HENARES,JR.
About the Author:
Dr. Hilarion M. Henares, Jr., Doctor of
Economics, will probably be known as the
Alexander Hamilton of the Philippines. As
Hamilton argued for his “Theory of
Manufactures” to point the way to the United
States’ emergence as an industrial power
against Thomas Jefferson’s advocacy of a
`pastoral economy,’ so did Henares argue for
Philippine Industrialization against American
policy to keep the Philippines agricultural.
Hilarion Henares
Hilarion M. Henares Jr., known as Larry Henares, Larry
Henares was born on April 10, 1924, in Manila, and studied at
the Ateneo de Manila, University of the Philippines and
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, an Eisenhower
Fellow, an engineer, economist, educator, big businessman,
writer of 35 books, civic leader , public servant, and hobbyist
(guns, books, amateur radio and electronics)
Carlos P. Romulo once said that Henares did not spend his
life climbing to the peak of one career. He jumped from peak
to peak in many different fields. Indeed, Henares is a modern
Renaissance Man whose breadth of knowledge, experience
and culture can only be surmised with the reading of his
essays and listening to his speeches, already well-known for
their literacy, perspicacity, wit, humor, Filipinism and deep
sense of humanity. Above all, he is a Nationalist in the great
tradition of Claro M. Recto and Jose Rizal, an indefatigable
champion of the nationalist cause, whose life and works will
show the way and the light for future generations of
Filipinos.
