The use of KZbin to share insights on Philippine history and culture is not unheard of, but is not as widespread as it can be, particularly amidst the ongoing debate surrounding Jose Rizal's legacy as the national hero. Despite controversies surrounding Rizal's life, his enduring contributions to Filipino society remain invaluable and serve as a source of inspiration for generations to come.

[@user-ky1yb9xj7e]

Ang retraksyon ni Rizal ay isa sa mga mahahalagang aspeto ng kanyang buhay na patuloy na kiligin ng imahinasyon ng marami. Tunay nga na ito ay isang kontrobersyal na usapin, sapagkat mahirap paniwalaan na biglang bawiin ni Rizal ang lahat ng kanyang mga kritisismo sa simbahan, lalo na't kilala siya bilang isang taong may matibay na paninindigan sa laban para sa mga Pilipino.

Ganda thanks po

[@margaritadominiquebautista9126]

First and foremost, I genuinely appreciate Prof. Xiao's use of KZbin as a platform for disseminating information about Philippine history and culture. The fact that there are so many competing views regarding Jose Rizal's life and that people continue to question whether he deserves to be honored as the nation's national hero intrigues me. Despite the fact that he may have signed the agreement, none of his inspirational deeds for Filipinos can be undone. But his contributions, which continue to motivate Filipinos, will not go ignored.

[@margaritaellainevidallo4725]

Para sa akin, ang retraksyon ni Rizal ay isa sa mga nakakapukaw-interes na aspeto sa buhay niya. Napakakontrobersyal ng paksang ito, dahil ang hirap paniwalaan na binawi na lang ni Rizal ang lahat ng kanyang pambabatikos sa simbahan, mas lalo na't alam natin na siya ay walang takot na pinaglaban ang kapakanan ng mga Pilipino. Legitimate man o hindi, walang duda na malaki pa rin ang naging papel ni Rizal sa kalayaan at kamalayan ng mga Pilipino. Ang kanyang legacy ay hindi dapat nating maliitin.

[@user-qe1gf1vp5p]

Thank you Sir Xiao for this lecture, dahil dito ay mas lulalim pa ang interes ko sa diskurso tungkol sa retraction ni Rizal. Bilang isang mag-aaral, ang pagiging radikal at kritikal sa mga bagay ay mahalaga. Ito ang isang kaugalian na hindi masusukat ng kahit anong rubric at pagmamarka. Hindi maikakaila na malaki at napakahalaga ng naging kontribusyon ni Dr. Jose Rizal sa ating bansa. Ngunit dahil dito, napaisip ako sa kung anong prinsipyo ang mayroon si Rizal, lalo na sa naging sitwasyon niya.

[@purificacionkhielrozq.8886]

Kapag talagang hinimay, mas malinamnam ang impormasyon. Maraming Salamat Prof.Chua!

[@obi-wankenobi6017]

Ang pag-uusap tungkol sa retraksyon ni Rizal ay patuloy na nagbibigay ng interes at naglalagay ng ilang tanong sa ating mga isipan. Ang kontrobersiya na kaakibat nito ay nagpapakita ng kahalagahan ng pagiging kritikal at mapanuri sa ating pag-aaral ng kasaysayan at mga kilalang personalidad. Sa pag-aaral ng buhay ni Rizal, isa itong mahalagang bahagi na nagbibigay ng mga diskurso at pagninilay-nilay sa kanyang mga prinsipyo at paninindigan. Ang kanyang kontribusyon sa bansa ay hindi maaaring mabalewala, ngunit ang mga usapin tulad ng retraksyon ay nagpapahiwatig ng komplikasyon at ang mga aspetong hindi agad naipapaliwanag.

[@user-tf2ku1qi3c]

Whether he signed the retraction or not, it will not change the fact that Jose Protacio Mercado Rizal y Alonzo Realonda's works opened the minds of the Filipinos, boosted Nationalism and love of country! Thank you for the enlightenment, Prof. Chua.

[@DanaMichaelaSimon]

Ang retraksyon ni Rizal ay isang kontrobersyal na bahagi ng kanyang buhay kung saan inaamin niya ang kanyang mga pagkakasala laban sa Simbahan at nagpahayag ng pagmamalasakit sa mga Pilipinong Katoliko. Ito ay nagdulot ng malaking epekto sa kanyang pananaw at sa kanyang relasyon sa mga taong nakapaligid sa kanya. Ang retraksyon ay patuloy na pinag-aaralan at pinagtatalunan hanggang sa kasalukuyan, nagbibigay ng iba't ibang interpretasyon at opinyon mula sa mga dalubhasa at tagasunod ni Rizal. Marami paring mga perspektibo at opinyon ukol sa katotohanan ng Retraksyon mapahanggang sa ngayon. Ngunit, totoo man o hindi, para sa akin, hindi na importante ito sapagkat ang kaniyang kabayanihan ay hindi na dapat kinekwestyon sapagkat napakalaki ng naging epekto ni Rizal para sa paggamit ng kalayaan ng Pilipinas.

[@annelimsico9232]

Many say that Rizal really has signed the retraction, but many also believed that he didn’t due to lack of evidence. Whether or not he signed the retraction, I believe that his works did have a big contribution or impact to everyone as his works still continue to inspire today’s youth.

[@wilbertletriro6437]

Thank you so much Professor Xiao Chua! It's Xiao Time.

[@reinachii9035]

The authencity of Rizal's retraction will always be a controversial issue in Rizal's life. Throughout the years, multiple debates and discussions have been sparked by this controversy, but regardless if his retraction was genuine or not, Rizal's legacy in Philippine History will remain unforgotten for generations to come.

[@jayarpante1003]

Thank you po naunawaan ko po ng malinaw yung pag kakaiba tala ng Cuerpo de Vigilancia sa pahayag ni Padre Balaguer. God bless

"What Rizal did in that night (or day), will not erase Rizal's greatness." (Xiao Chua about José Rizal's Retraction Webinar)

[@litodelara]

I BELIEVE THAT RIZAL KNEW THAT WHATEVER RETRACTION HE DID THAT DAY WILL NOT MATTER . BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO EXCHANGE HIS LIFE JUST FOR A WEDDING AND DEATH AS A CATHOLIC, I BELIEVE THERE IS A MORE WORTHWHILE DEAL. WHICH IS A FAKE EXECUTION,

[@juanpunch8473]

Salamat prof,,,hirap intindihin yung nasa module eh ahaha

[@user-jt3ih3sl5d]

good afternoon prof.Xiao chua I am Rey John Panglilingan a history teacher thanks for the lecture regarding the rizal's retraction and now its very clear to my mind that our national hero done the retraction in exchange of favor to married Josephine bracken. it is very difficult to teach the history where together with my students confusing the context of the history and one of that is the retraction of rizal.

[@rocelmolina9013]

Thank you so much Prof. Chua! It was indeed an informative talk!

[@vanxillacream]

Kasiya-siyang tuklasin ang mga perspektibo at teorya tungkol sa retraksiyon ni Rizal na naging medyo kontrobersyal na paksa. Nagustuhan ko ang pinakapangunahing punto ng panayam ni Sir Chua na iisa lamang ang katotohanan, pero marami ang kasaysayan depende sa paningin at gustong paniwalaan ng tao. Para sa iba kasi ay may epekto ito sa mga motibasyon ni Rizal para sa mga nagawa niya, lalo na kasi pwedeng may pagtatanggi ito sa kanyang pagiging "tunay" na bayani. Ngunit ang katotohanan ay hindi pa rin natin pwedeng ipagwalang-bahala ang kanyang mga tulong at sakripisyo para sa Inang Bayan kahit naging Katoliko man siya o hindi sa huli.

[@avymajfermin7541]

It's very interesting how Rizal's Retraction continues to spark intense debates and research regarding its authenticity. This controversy has even prompted disputes over whether the Retraction was voluntary or coercive in nature. Nevertheless, despite arguments over this issue, it doesn't change the fact that Rizal inspired and contributed to the independence of the Philippines from Spain's colonization. His ideas, works, and projects provide enduring insights that are still relevant in the present society.

[@faithdanielleangcao6209]

Grabe, sobrang na-amaze ako sa ating kasaysayan at kung paano mo ito ipinaliwanag! Maraming salamat po!

[@josiahdelima3965]

Thank you, Sir Chua, for using your platform to make some point about Rizal's retraction. I believe this video helped me better understand Rizal's goals and how he truly deserved his status as our national hero.

[@khrizostomeloyola1408]

This Retraction Theory made me have seconds thoughts on what principles do Rizal uphold. However, I still believe that, he made a huge contribution to the Philippine Revolution.

[@kylefrancheskabelardo1775]

Napakahusay niyo po talaga sir Ciao. Sa bawat discussion niyo po ay marami ako nababaon na bagong mga kaalaman.

[@alduouzconde580]

Napakaganda ng punto ni sir Chua na ang retraksyon ni Rizal ay hindi nakakaapeekto sa kadakilaan ni Rizal. Ang kanyang pagsulat at posibleng pagpirma nito ay hindi patungkol sa kanyang pagiging bayani kundi sa posibleng pagpaslang sa kanya ng simbahang Katoliko sa mga panahong iyon.

[@adriandominicsamson462]

Thank you sir for this very informative video! I was able to learn more about the details of the Retraction of Dr. Jose Rizal and helped me able to understand every single detail of his retraction, which is essential in learning our history, specifically our national heroes.

[@michae1ga1ang]

It is fascinating to learn about all the meticulous details behind Rizal's retraction. Experts extensively studied the situation, which was covered correctly in this video. Although he did sign the contract, all his works and all he has done for the country that continues inspiring Filipinos cannot be undone.

[@robindagala7471]

Wide and comprehensive presentation with critical analysis of the text are very important to arrive the larger truth. History shapes our society. It can't be ignored.

[@grainneong6758]

It is interesting to learn about all the meticulous details surrounding Rizal’s retraction. The case was thoroughly investigated by experts and reported well by this video. Although he may have signed that document, all his works that continuously inspire Filipinos can not be reversed. Indeed, this will not undo everything Rizal has done for this nation.

[@kaellalag]

Thank you for very informative topic. I'm using your videos in my lesson in Araling Panlipunan that really helps me to convey the history effectively.

[@hennrycai6070]

I didn't know before that Jose Rizal wrote a letter of retraction and have learned a lot from this video. It is amusing to learn the details surrounding this retraction letter such as it being written in the first place was so that Jose Rizal can marry Josephine Bracken in a Catholic setting. Anyways, I have to agree with the others that said regardless whether the retraction letter is real or not; it does not change the fact that Jose Rizal has done so much for the Philippines.

[@latriciafayebriguera2911]

I find it interesting that there are a lot of theories about the history of Jose Rizal and there are stills doubts whether he should be the country’s national hero. Hanggang ngayon ay usap-usapan pa rin ang retraction ni Rizal, ngunit naniniwala akong hindi na mahalaga kung tunay ba ang retraction ni Rizal dahil kaya naman siya naging bayani dahil sa kanyang mga nagawa na. Hindi niya na mababawi ang kanyang pagbibigay inspirasyon sa mga Pilipino.

[@stephanieaseron]

Ang galing nito! Maraming salamat po sa pagbabahagi!

[@angelamikaellaferrer3762]

Ipinakita at ipinaliwanag sa diskusyong ito ang iba’t ibang mga panig, impormasyon, at detalye ukol sa kontrobersyal na retraskyon ni Rizal. Bagamat maraming mga haka-haka at opinyon ang nakapalibot rito, naniniwala ako na kahit nilagdaan man ni Rizal ang dokyumentong iyon ay hindi na nito mababago ang kanyang mga naunang naisulat at naisawalat ukol sa maalipustang pamamalakad ng mga Espanyol at mga prayle sa Pilipinas.

[@pacardolouelynmae]

Ginagamit ko din po ang mga video materials po ninyo Sir Xiao sa pagtuturo sa kolehiyo. Malaking tulong po sa pagmulat ng kamalayan ng mga studyante ngayon tungkol sa kasaysayan.

[@ClaudetteYzabelUy]

As one of the most renowned national heroes of the Philippines. We might only know of the romanticizations of them. This gave me a fresh perspective of Jose Rizal, as it shows his struggles for criticizing friars in the books he authored. However, this retraction of Jose Rizal may have different opinions and perspectives and may seem controversial doe to its authenticity.

[@romantikodon9073]

malaking tulong po ang mga videos nio sa board exam ko maraming salamat po Sir Xiao Chua

[@ianramos7971]

Ang galing. Sobra. Walang kumpas lahat ng ebidensya

[@patricefernandez6799]

Ang pagbawi ni Rizal ay nananatiling isang kontrobersyal na isyu sa kanyang buhay, na pumukaw ng mga debate sa paglipas ng mga taon. Gayunpaman, totoo man o hindi, ang kanyang pamana sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas ay hindi malilimutan sa mga henerasyon.

[@jay-arguyena4170]

Thank you, sir Chua! Indeed, there are many speculations about the retraction of Rizal against his religion of Catholicism. There were beliefs that Rizal did not sign the letter he wrote saying that he will be (like) a newly born Catholic. However, some also say that Rizal signs the letter because the dates did not match the writing. Despite this, I believe that Rizal is firm in his decisions and beliefs and he would not sign the letter himself. However, viewing the letter for his technical marriage proposal for his beloved lover, I think they could've sworn their love of each other despite the formal marriage contract they wouldn't be able to avail.

[@sapsalingpusacattalkmaykwe1556]

Watching this for our RPH.

[@noeljamestugay4382]

at 49:45 is very relatable for us students sir. As a student we need to verify and cite if the source we red was credible enough for it to be labeled as "true" or fact. Just like in correlation to the controversy of retraction of Rizal.

[@marcangelodelfonso4766]

The retraction of Rizal misaligned how we understood Rizal, fighting for the freedom of Filipino through his works and writings. This video specifies the details of the retraction of Rizal and brings out possible theories that may support each claim about the retraction letter. Somehow, this interests me in the way that theories were produced because of a certain action that Rizal has taken before his death.

[@peterpadrinao7564]

It is amazing to hear about all the painstaking details surrounding Rizal’s retraction. The matter was extensively researched by specialists and reported nicely by this video. Although he signed the contract, all of his efforts that continue to inspire Filipinos cannot be undone. Indeed, nothing Rizal has done for the country will be undone.

[@mjolninja9358]

It could have been true that Rizal wrote the retraction letter but the situation has turned Rizal’s mental state into mush, everyone can break for a moment. Even Jesus asked God why has God forsaken him. Maaaring ginawa nga iyon ni Rizal pero hindi ito totoo sa kanyang puso, kung ikukumpara mo ito sa kanyang mga sulatin mula sa kanyang mga Nobela o iyong mga gawa nila sa La Solidaridad bilang ilustrado. Kataka-takang luluhod si Rizal kay padre damaso.

Hindi man natin siguro malalaman na kung ang Retraction ni Rizal ay totoo o inde, dapat parin antin bigyang respeto ang mga naidulot ni Rizal sa ating bansa. Nakakatuwa na kahit matagal na hindi nasasagot ang issue na ito, ay madami pa rin ang nagsasaliksik at naghahanap ng katotohanan patungkol dito. Dahil sa video na ito ay mas marami pa akong nalaman tungkol sa Retraction ni Rizal.

[@ryanchan5426]

Kontrobersyal ang retraksyon ni Rizal sapagkat lumilitaw na binabawi niya ang lahat ng kanyang sinulat laban sa simbahang Katoliko na siyang naging batayan ng kanyang pagiging bayani. Sa gayon, may ilang mga tao na nagdududa sa lagda ni Rizal dahil bumababa ang kanyang kredibilidad bilang bayani. Subalit, mahalaga na ating maalala na napakarami ang ambag ni Rizal sa pagkamit ng kalayaan at hindi ito basta-basta na mawawala dahil sa kanyang retraksyon.

[@christelleong8426]

There are numerous theories regarding Rizal's retraction of his criticism of his religion in Catholicism. There are theories that Rizal did not sign the letter he composed in which he declared his intention to go back to the Catholic church. The dates did not line up with the wording. Nevertheless, some claim that Rizal signed the letters. I think Rizal is steadfast in his choices and convictions and would refuse to sign the letter himself. Although they couldn't obtain a formal marriage contract, based on the letter he wrote to his beloved as a technical marriage proposal, I believe they may have professed their love for one another.

Sa video na ito ko lamang nalaman ang tungkol sa isyung ito. Maaaring matukoy bilang isang kontrobersyal na paksa ng retraksyon ni Jose Rizal sapagkat maaaring magbago ang ating pagtingin sa kanyang mga likha, kinilos, at mga isinulat. Totoo man ang retraksyong ito o hindi, ang alam lamang natin ay malaki ang naging epekto ni Rizal sa kung paano umunlad ang ating bansa at hindi dapat maapektuhan ng isyung ito ang respeto at pagpapahalaga natin sa kanya.

[@klinchi2165]

That document just proves why and who killed Rizal. You can see the intention of the people behind it. haha. Rizal is so smart. Those people don't really have any reason to kill him aside from what he wrote in his books and letters. You just have to read Rizal books and letters to know him. If he retracts, why they still kill him?? haha. proof of crime toh haha. Kaya humarap si Rizal ng binaril sya dahil alam niyang wala siyang ginawang mali para patayin. Talagang nanggagaliiti lang sila sa mga sinulat ni Rizal.

[@user-iv5ex2hq5o]

[@miachua594]

Between the debates whether Rizal's retraction was true or not, this video have proven sources as whether it was really a legitimate thing. Despite all of that, only Rizal knows what his motive was when he did what he had to do. Even after that, we can not doubt what Rizal has done since after all, he did this for the freedom of our nation.
