HISTORY DOES REPEAT ITSELF!

Honorable Members of the KOR worldwide,

Think of the year 1896...!

Dr Jose Rizal all his life, worked hard to expose the ABUSIVE and CORRUPT Spanish colonizers (the Padre Damasos, Padre Salvis and their ilk) in the Philippines! Those who read the works and writings of/on Dr Jose Rizal know that the National Hero, aside from speaking truthfully, was correct in his observations! Yet in the end, it was he, not the Padre Damasos and the Padre Salvis, that was meted INJUSTICE! Devoid of convincing evidence to sentence him to death, the POWERFUL friars still got the death conviction for the 'Pride of the Malay Race!' Dr Jose Rizal was a victim of, in his own words, "a double-faced Goliath"--corrupt friars and bad government (part of last sentence transcribed from Wikipedia)!

Let us now look at years 2007-2008...!

For almost 2 years now Lazir has been writing in favor of Reforms, presenting proof of wrongdoings and asking IHQ for quick action to expel the CORRUPT and ABUSIVE members whose acts were INIMICAL to the very purpose and foundation of the illustrious KOR!

Among others, Lazir specifically reported about the

1. UNDESERVING exaltations to KGOR of Alcoba, Nollas and Guansing by Esguerra (this despite the fact that Alcoba as KCR in 2003 REFUSED to return El Filibusterismo Chapter items, records, ca. 3,000 + photos, documents, etc. belonging reportedly to El Filibusterismo Chapter, even ignoring the various e-mails, letters, instructions and the like coming from Sir Barry Bowman, Sir Klaus Hartung, and even from Quiambao himself!);

Lazir requested for IHQ records/Supreme Council documents or minutes of meetings approving these KGOR exaltations way back October 2007 of Alcoba, Nollas, Guansing, et. al. Soon it will be October 2008, but IHQ never shared any info. Hence, Lazir is correct in his accusation of Esguerra/Supreme Council complicity in SHAMING the KOR by exalting the UNDESERVING.

It is not the individual's ethnicity, color of skin or hair, race or gender that Lazir looks at in an individual. For Lazir, it is the individual's actions and his/her capability that counts!

2. the missing amount close to Euro 5,000 Esguerra said is not accounted for in the KOR accounting books (confirmed given by donor in a phone conversation with Lazir!);

Esguerra wrote of 4x Euro 500 donations, duly-receipted and accounted for, given by Mushake for the years 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 to the KOR. Esguerra was SILENT on the approximately Euro 5,000 donated by the same donor, reportedly during RY 1999-2000. A "souvenir program" for the European Assembly in London in Lazir's hands, indicated Quiambao as Supreme Commander for RY 1999-2000.

3. the plagiarized copy of Jose Baron Fernandez' Dr Jose Rizal, Filipino Doctor and Patriot which Paras claimed to have authored in his "Born to be a Hero";

Esguerra often reported about "ongoing-", "under investigation", "given to National Historical Institute" concerning the Paras plagiarism case. Why the long months?

Lazir needed less than five (5) minutes to conclude that Paras' "Born to be a Hero" is the same as the work of Jose Baron Fernandez!

Paras reportedly owns two (2) homes in Taytay, Rizal province. Esguerra reportedly also resides in Taytay, Rizal. In addition, Quiambao's son lived many months in Paras' Brussels home.

4. the derogatory, insulting and racistic e-mails Alcoba wrote addressed to Sir Barry Bowman, Sir Don Brennock, Sir Peter Eisele, Sir Lucien Spittael, etc.

Many have read those Alcoba tirades "below the belt!" Sir Barry even showed proof he did dine with QEII, not necessarily in Buckingham palace, but dined with her Majesty just the same. Alcoba didn't rebut and kept silent ever since, when Sir Barry complained to IHQ (Quiambao and Esguerra?).

Lazir is wondering though, 'Why is Alcoba not disciplined despite his racistic e-mails?' Your guess is as good as mine!


Lazir identified the cause of the SHAME in the illustrious KOR to be Leadership-driven! Esguerra's (and Quiambao's?) lousy and incompetent "leadership" that bred more self-serving members (judging from the KGORs Alcoba, Nollas and Guansing recently-promoted in Paris July 2007!) instead of gaining (read: keeping!) quality as well as honorable members that will bring pride to the illustrious KOR!

Lazir did not assail the integrity nor reputation of the Order! Lazir proved beyond reasonable doubt though that Paras, Esguerra, Quiambao, et.al., COMMITTED ACTS that are inimical to the honorable interests of the Illustrious Order!

If Lazir's e-mails are unfounded, why can't Esguerra nor Quiambao (Paras here in Europe) DISPROVE Lazir's allegations???

If Esguerra, et.al are right, why is Resolution No. 006, series of 2008 only filed AFTER Lazir kept reporting about Esguerra, et.al. wrongdoings, NOT BEFORE???

And why are the signatories the same Alcoba, Nollas, Guansing (the Group of the UNDESERVING) that Lazir has been questioning all these weeks and months?

Also, where are the SPECIFIC CHARGES that Esguerra and Quiambao (or Palomar
and Lacuna) throw against Lazir? Why only sweeping generalizations about "lies, false charges, and innuendos by (Lazir), attached hereto and made as integral part of this Resolution"...?

IHQ supposedly is teeming with jurists, lawyers, judges. Quiambao is himself a lawyer. Esguerra is reportedly Rizal provincial administrator.

Lazir asks, please write your SPECIFIC CHARGES, numbered, so that Lazir can answer them one-by-one! Present convincing proof or evidence of Lazir's wrongdoing!

(To borrow the words of Esguerra) "NAKAKAHIYA!" PO KAYO ... Esguerra and Quiambao!

You are supposed to be examples of a MORALLY-UPRIGHT KNIGHT, OFFICIAL, FILIPINO!

The KOR General membership put you up there not to exalt the UNDESERVING NOR KEEP THE PLAGIARIST AND THE RACIST in the KOR! You are to serve public interest and not ONLY your private interests!

Think, act, write, plan, execute, work for the common good!

For country and people!

Lazir

P.S. - Writing Resolutions like 006, series of 2008 may not be illegal. But
at least remember that what is legal should yield to what is moral or
acceptable to a civilized standard of right and wrong!

OPEN LETTER TO SIR ESGUERRA, IF HE IS REALLY A FOLLOWER OF DR JOSE RIZAL


Knowing yourself, what you committed, ommitted, failed or refused to do, what you neglected during your time, despite the numerous VALID & SPECIFIC charges raised against your failed "leadership" (from as far away as Europe and North America, and even back home in the Philippines!) that continously pull the Illustrious KOR to shame and filth, please RESIGN for the sake of delicadeza!

Lazir once more furnishes one of his numerous e-mail charges below, so you have a chance to reply, line-by-line!

Those in the know are aware of the dictum, "innocent until proven guilty!" That applies to you, yes of course!

Yet, the same individuals in the know also understand that silence over time on your part, is implied admission of guilt! If not incompetence, pure and simple! Or both?

Since you are the acting Supreme Commander and accused at the same time, who refuses to step down (at least to preserve the honorrable position!...keep it free from malice for the next Supreme Commander!), you could influence the jury selection/formation and subsequent deliberations of the case at bar -- yours!

Even Dr Jose Rizal, whom you profess to be an ardent follower of, would never ever sit tight nor cling (kapit-tuko!) upon a position, high or low, where there's but the smallest taint of anomaly upon his name and honor! Such was the National Hero that many readers here dearly treasure and are familiar with.

Character-wise, and despite your avid use of Rizalian quotes and verses, you are too far to be near the National Hero's mold!, an ignominious day for the KOR indeed!

In the almost two years you sat as acting Supreme Commander, you never did and still do not possess (not even show!) the Honesty, Integrity, Honor, Principles, etc. etc., Dr Jose Rizal all had in his (well-guarded by the National Hero in his) entire lifetime!

Sir Virgilio Esguerra, please resign without delay, because your actions have been proven by Lazir beyond reasonable doubt, to be contradictory (in thoughts, in words, and in deeds!) and strange to the Rizalian teachings you speak most often of..., TOTALLY INIMICAL TO THE INTERESTS of the Illustrious KOR!

To use your own words: "Nakakahiya" po kayo Sir Esguerra! Tinimbang po namin kayo, subali't talagang kulang!


For Country, KOR and people!

:)
Lazir
(...nothing personal against Sir Esguerra... let's not pretend to be what we are not... "yun lang po!")

P.S. - Please also quantify/qualify your allegations against Lazir per Memo 006, series of 2008! For the sake of fairness, kindly make them specific, so Lazir can reply to them one-by-one!

Who do we follow, Esguerra/Quiambao or Dr Jose Rizal...?

Allcon,

Sorry to dampen the spirits of some, but who amongst us outside the Philippines (or perhaps even Manila) really had a chance to cast a valid vote that did matter, or bring change?

Talking about elections, who really amongst us wanted "the same procedure as last year?" (Ms Sophie's 90th with James!)

"ELECTED" is relative..."ceteris parebus". Was there a level playing field before, during (elections) and as votes were getting counted?

Why, if Lazir may ask, is electronic balloting not put in place? (Every January foreign chapter dues! But when election time comes, "the foreign Knights abroad cannot vote!" Ooops!)

History is full of names of leaders past who also always got "re-elected" (achieving mostly 95-99% of total votes counted!): Iraq's Saddam, Cuba's Castro, North Korea's Kim, China's Mao, East Germany's Honecker, Rumania's Caeucescu, just to name some!

Nothing really spectacular, as it was public knowledge, their institutions (that ought to conduct 'Checks and Balances') were mere "rubber stamps"! (Who appointed or handpicked the KOR Election Committee members?)

Will RY 2008-2010's Supreme Council or Council of Elders be a "rubber stamp" of the Esguerra-Quiambao tandem? Will their deliberations on "Exaltations to KCRs/KGORs/KGCRs" be transparent, e-mailed to the General Membership, domestic and foreign? Or will we see continuation of further Exaltations of the UNDESERVING (Aug-Sep 2008 meet in Canada)?

Lazir didn't write R.A. 646 nor the KOR By-Laws. But Esguerra should, if the Council of Elders of 2007/2008 would do their job and investigate, be required to reimburse the KOR all funds spent for his July 2007 Paris, France trip, now that we know he as acting Supreme Commander, exalted the UNDESERVING! (If Council of Elders won't do it, perhaps the Supreme Council?)

Someone asked Lazir why he writes non-STOP!

Lazir's answer is simple:

1. UPHOLDING Dr Jose Rizal LEGACY is a duty of a real Filipino and a true Knight of (Dr Jose P.) Rizal!
2. Who should defend the country's patrimony, if not us Filipinos?
3. Before we ask any neighbor to help clean our house (of corruption and corrupt practices!), we have to first do our own "housecleaning" ourselves!
4. Didn't Dr Jose Rizal address his work (writings) to the Filipino youth, to the women, to Filipino priests, to us all?
5. If in his youth Lazir was busy putting his life in order, had no time, now he can HEED the National Hero's call!

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is as simple as those above!

It's the word of Esguerra and Quiambao against the word and LEGACY of Dr Jose Rizal!

For those who misuse/abuse Dr Jose Rizal's legacy and name, the "writings are on the wall!"

For all of us, the discerning readers, the lines have been drawn on the sand! Let us do it...!



For country and People!

:)
Lazir


A true Knight's duty it is to speak up for those who can't, won't! Rizalists cannot afford to pretend to be honorable, if there's NOTHING of value within. (Medals/Sashes are outside!) By singing praises to falsehood, we become one with FILTH/Moral Decay! Nothing Rizalian and honorable in FILTH/Moral Decay!

"The arrogant one is he who wants to be worshipped, who misleads others, and who wants his will to prevail over reason and justice." - Dr Jose P. Rizal - Message to the women of Malolos, February 1889

"My ambition is not to win honors or hold positions, but to see what is just, exact and suitable, is done in political matters." - Dr Jose P. Rizal

"No one will be corrupt if we don't let them." - Tony Meloto in his speech before Davao University graduates, 2007

"...Dare to cross boundaries in your minds and hearts! In your strength and courage! In the space inside and around you! Dare to be different! Dare what you never dared before! The highest thing that obliges you is your conscience. Act whatever good forces dictate! Then you are closer to Rizal's ideals than any policy or philosophy could ever be. What he can teach you, you will not understand without Kant's lessons..." - An excerpt of the speech Christoph S. Eberle delivered on Rizal Day in Hamburg, Dec. 2006.

IFKOR Membership (Maybe Change the Name to IFR or IFOR)

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, Sirs and Ladies, Brothers and Sisters, etc., etc:

Please bear with me as I try to explain a few things that are of interest to us all.

First of all, let me state that there can be as many ideas on Rizalism, on being a Rizalist or on the concept of a Rizalist organization as there are people who care about anything and everything associated with the man Rizal.

However, as far as IFKOR is concerned, just to put things in proper perspective I am certain we in this group are aware that the International Federation of Knights of Rizal is not just another Rizalist organization with perhaps a new idea on how to advance the cause of Rizalism. Its establishment is in truth and in fact a direct reaction to the failings of the Manila-based Order of the Knights of Rizal.

The reaction is borne of (1) the realization by the founding members of IFKOR that such failings were symptomatic of an organization that did not evolve with the changing times as it should gradually have over the years; (2) the recognition that the mindset of many of those in the Philippines are neither ready nor willing to accept and welcome ideas from other cultures that are otherwise radically different from what is traditionally Filipino and 3) the determination that the only meaningful effort or the only way that will effectuate true and lasting positive change is one that comes from the grassroots level.

In other words, the Federation is in essence a revolutionary movement intended to instigate the replacement of the dysfunctional, archaic, incompetent and irrelevant colonial-type made-only-for-Filipinos-in-the-Philippines corporation with one that is both truly global in scope and universal in outreach. The foundational concept remains the same - that is, the upholding of the traditional intentions of the charter members of the 'Orden de Caballeros de Rizal' in 1911.

While IFKOR was founded only in March 17, 2008 its beginnings can actually be traced back to 2005 when the Scarborough Manifesto was issued. That document paved the way for the establishement of the Knights of Rizal Reform Movement (KRRM). The late Sir Peter Eisele of Germany was himself a staunch member of KRRM. When Sir Peter decided later on that the reform initiative was going nowhere or rather, that the fraternal organization as we know it is hopeless, both he and I exchanged ideas on which route to take: either to completely break away and start a completely different organization or take a different and more radical approach to bring about reformation within the existing brotherhood. The resulting 'La Liga Solidaridad' and 'IFKOR' are hence the expressions of our separate choices. IFKOR has indeed taken a completely new route: that of TRANSFORMATION, in place of reformation.

In March of 2008 when Sir Lino Reyes first excitedly joined the Federation, he agreed with the notion that IFKOR is the right vehicle that will rebuild the dilapidated house in Manila. But because of his misunderstanding of some legal ramifications such as the name "Knights of Rizal" he quickly backtracked and started to suggest that the Federation be changed into something completely different. Which is what some of us are inclined to suggest at this time, albeit for reasons other than those submitted by Sir Lino.

As I explained at length in many previous emails, if we merely wanted to create an organization that has no relation (historically or otherwise) with the Knights of Rizal or the 'Orden de Caballeros de Rizal', we would not have initiated the Federation at all. We could have simply joined 'La Liga', Rizal Society of Ontario, or come up with something else altogether. But that was not the plan and that was not the intention. They still are not.

However, within the Federation there are admittedly a number of issues that are worthy of consideration. For example the use of such titles as 'Sir', 'Lady', 'KOR', 'KCR', 'KGOR' and 'KGCR'. As a progressive organization IFKOR certainly should be open to suggestions, and it is - BUT only as IFKOR and not as another. To decide to make it different is to decide in essence to dissolve the corporation, sadly, just as it is taking its first steps.

Lastly, I should point out that while the purpose of the International Conference on Rizal in September is to determine what are 'Rizalian Principles' and in what practical applications can those principles be used, it is possible that as a result of the coming together of Rizalists in this event, an international association of many Rizalist organizations may by design be established. One that IFKOR can be a part of. That, I think, is the appropriate avenue where the new suggestions can be given due and full recognition.

I hope that I have shed some light on these matters. How I wish we have the luxury of time to exhaust all possibilities but really, with all due respect to everyone, we should concentrate at the moment on the preparations for the Conference. Let us see how things play out at that event or as a consequence of the same. I humbly ask for your patience and understanding. As the saying goes, "the world is not going to end tomorrow", or at least I have no reason to believe it will.

God bless us all!

Yours sincerely in Rizal,

Jun Zerrudo


HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO THE LAW AND ORDER IN THE PHILIPPINES?

I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU MY SON'S EXPERIENCE WITH THE MANILA POLICE LAST WEDNESDAY EVENING AT ABOUT 10PM.

CHRISTIAN WENT TO THE CONDO AT THE CORNER OF VITO CRUZ AND TAFT AVE. TO RETURN HIS COUSIN'S LAPTOP. HE HANDED THE LAPTOP TO HIS COUSIN AND WENT BACK TO THE CAR. WHEN HE GOT TO THE CAR, THERE WAS A COP WHO ASKED HIM WHAT HE WAS DOING THERE; WHY HE WAS PARKED ON A NO PARKING AREA.

CHRISTIAN SAID, IF IT WERE A NO PARKING AREA WHY IS IT THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF CARS PARKED.

THE COP TOLD HIM TO OPEN HIS TRUNK AND CHRIS ASKED, WHY? DO YOU HAVE A WARRANT? ANYWAY, THE CAR DOORS AND WINDOWS WERE OPEN AND ANOTHER COP SEARCHED THE INTERIOR WHILE ANOTHER OPENED THE TRUNK. IN THE TOOLBOX THEY FOUND THE PLASTIC END OF SPARK PLUGS. THE COP SAID IT WAS A PARAPHARNALIA. THE SAME COP BROUGHT TO THE TRUNK USED PLASTIC SACHETS OF SHABU AND STARTED TO SHOUT "DRUGS 'TO!", "DRUGS!"

SO THEY TOOK CHRISTIAN, TO THE ATM OF BPI. THEY SAW HIS CARD AND ASKED HIM TO WITHDRAW ALL HIS MONEY. FORTUNATELY HE DOES NOT KEEP HIS MONEY THERE. ONLY HIS SALARY IS DEPOSITED THERE. SO THE COPS WE INSISTED THAT HE WAS A DRUG USER. AND MY SON WAS SAYING DO A TEST NOW SO THEY'LL SEE IF HE'S POSITIVE. HE SAID I CAN'T WORK IN MANDARIN AS A CHEF IF I'M A DRUG USER. HE SAID HE HAD TO GET POLICE, NBI, BARANGAY, COURT AND MEDICAL CLEARANCE BEFORE HE COULD START WORKING. THEN THE POLICE TOOK HIM TO POLICE HEAD-QUARTERS AT UN AVE. AND THERE FORCED HIM TO EAT SHABU.

IT TOOK A WHILE BEFORE HE ATE IT. SIX COPS WERE PUNCHING HIM AND SCARING HIM WITH THEIR GUNS UNTIL THE POOR GUY PEED IN HIS PANTS OUT OF FEAR. HE HAD TO SWALLOW THE DRUG. THEN THE COPS STARTED TO LAUGH. NOW WE'LL SEE IF YOU ARE NEGATIVE OF SHABU. "200,000PHP AND WE'LL LET YOU GO OR THIS WILL BE AT THE FISCALS OFFICE IN THE MORNING. CALL YOUR FRIENDS AND PARENTS. THIS ORDEAL STARTED AT 10PM. HE WAS ABLE TO CALL ME AT 5AM THE FOLLOWING DAY. POOR SON OF MINE WAS REALLY TRAUMATIZED. A FRIEND OF HIS CAME WITH TWENTY THOUSAND THE COPS GRABBED IT AND LET HIM GO AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED.

I WAS IN LIPA ALL THE TIME THIS WAS HAPPENING. CHRIS LATER FOUND OUT FROM HIS COUSIN THAT SEVEN OF HER FRIENDS WERE ALSO APPREHENDED BY THE SAME GROUP OF COPS AND ALSO TOOK THEM TO THEIR ATM'S. THEY GOT ALL THEIR MONEY IN THE ACCOUNT. THIS COP IS CAPT.MENDOZA OF THE MOBIL GROUP AND SARGENT GAVINO.

IF YOU GUYS KNOW INFLUENTIAL PEOPLE IN THE SERVICE, PLEASE LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THIS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE FOR THEM TO RETURN THE MONEY THEY TOOK FROM MY SON SO HE COULD GIVE IT BACK TO HIS FRIEND. THE MORE PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS SO CALLED POLICE OFFICERS THE BETTER.

THIS IS THE TYPE OF GOVERNMENT THAT WE HAVE NOW. DISARM THE POPULATION AND THIS TYPE OF ABUSE HAPPENS. THANKS AND PASS IT ON.
