YOU SAID IT WITH HONORS - TALK IS CHEAP

Subject: The World of Dr Fu Man Chu and Other "Doctors" we should try to know about


Mr Marasigan,

Lazir didn't go on holiday but spent Quality Time with his kids: sliding downhill and having snow ball battles last weekend! They're (his kids) well aware not just everybody Lazir's age go up and down the snowed hilltop, ca. 600 meters long! Many who are much younger simply stay on one spot, talk and/or drink coffee, content to be mere onlookers ("fence sitters?"), instead of taking the "bull by the horns" and getting into the fray with their children. Talk is cheap!

In this KOR, you are the EVIDENCE Lazir has been looking for! Thanks for confirming some of his well-founded fears/doubts about KOR (ever?) REFORMING itself for the 21st century, hell-bent to preserve its "STATUS QUO" a la Quiambao!

Canadian James Cameron's "Avatar" might be fiction today, but Jules Verne's writings were dismissed as "CRAP" also during his days!

Surprised?

You have the same "KGOR" like Alcoba, Paras, Guansing, Palomar, Plueckebaum, Nollas? You better find out who these European characters are because you have THE SAME rank and TITLE as they! Your KGOR perhaps came from hard work, but what about these others Lazir named?

Internet has reduced the globe to just a "village", you know that. Yet, how can you know or be CONCERNED with what's happening in Europe if you have a TUNNEL VIEW of what KOR/Rizalism truly stands for? Did Dr Jose Rizal have TUNNEL vision?

Ever heard of (KOR) REFORMS that the fightingest KOR Scarborough Chapter, Toronto, presented to Sir Jose Lina then to Sir Hilario Davide Jr?

Or are you IN DENIAL with occurrences in your own turf Canada (your SILENCE on the "Doctor" Collantes case), and in KOR IHQ (missing approx. Euro 5,000 which Sir Manny Bade, Canada, practically laid out for Lazir.and the latter took off from there, personally getting info from the "horse's mouth" CONFIRMING the Euro 5,000 donation!) as well?

Rizalism is BROADENING OF HORIZONS, not NARROW-MINDEDNESS to the "T"! IFKOR is global and international, while the KOR wants the "STATUS QUO"? Is it a Quiambao doctrine that a village must stay just like that, a village?

Esguerra was correct then (Is he the father of un-Rizalianism?) when he once aptly-titled his Open Letter to Sir Peter Eisele "How to be un-Rizalian".

The Supreme Council should amend the KOR Manual and require KGORs to BROADEN their HORIZONS or risk losing the title! This will then force FAKES to double time to keep their KGOR!

Being a Canadian high official and KGOR, you must be privy to details of some unflattering news that came out, where you've lived approx. 40 years, correct? Ergo, SILENCE on your part about the "Doctor" before the Collantes CONFIRMS his FAKE title, right? If not FAKE, what was his THESIS all about? Which institution conferred it to him?

Can you say something about the reported NBI/Philippine court cases of "Doctor" Collantes that reportedly made him a "WANTED" man in Manila? Or will you simply again take the path of LESS RESISTANCE by saying "let the court decide"?

Esguerra's LYING about his RACISM stand is FOUL because in about 3 months after he wrote his stand April 2007, he personally conferred the KGOR to racist Alcoba (even Sir Barry Bowman decided to take the "Sir" before Alcoba's name after an e-mail exchange where Alcoba used distorted info unacceptable to Sir Barry), Paris, July 2007!

Lazir speaking truthfully about how Canada negatively contributes to GLOBAL WARMING with its massive DEFORESTATION of Alberta as it extracts oil from sand, is not foul, or!

Dr Jose Rizal stood for the TRUTH. He never PRETENDED everything was fine when it was NOT SO. He NEVER HID behind mere technicalities like "let the court decide", when he knows it will only blemish his character.

While in Europe , Dr Rizal complained that his countrymen were more after "Fun, Fun, Fun", wine, women, song (plus card games?) than FIGHTING for REFORMS!

Ergo, Lazir's anti-Corruption campaign is Rizalian, while KEEPing the STATUS QUO in the KOR, with it's glaring imperfections (Quiambao's/Esguerra's UNDESERVING promotions that DO NOT CONFORM to what the KOR Manual prescribes) is un-Rizalian!

If Dr Rizal's broad mind/vision got him INVOLVED/CONCERNED even with the Spanish-American War where he volunteered his services to work in Cuba, his translation of Schiller's "William Tell", his going places learning other cultures and languages, you know now that you cannot truly claim to be a Rizalist when you claim NO KNOWLEDGE of European events!

Dr Jose Rizal learned a lot from Europe of the 1880s. And you don't care about Europe?

Thanks for your well-written reply. However, one can write a lot WITHOUT really saying anything, nothing SUBSTANTIAL.


In Dr Jose Rizal's beloved Philippines, POVERTY cannot be solved through "buddy-buddy" with crooks that do not positively contribute to an "even playing field"! The Great Malayan started it more than 100 years ago. Rizalists of all colors, shapes, ages, genders can only HELP indeed following his great example, including being aware/looking into other's lives if only to bring about POSITIVE CHANGE!


Fruthermore, and unfortunately, lack of SUBSTANCE and CHARACTER are the things that is wanting in this Quiambao-/Esguerra-led KOR!

Definitely, that's NOT Rizalism!


For country and people!

Lazir
- one Filipino Knight who refused promotion by Esguerra, who Lazir considers UNDESERVING to promote him!


P.S. - Sir Lino, with a glass of fresh milk, and Muesli as chaser, perhaps Lazir can swallow your Hennesy X.O.! hehehe

Thanks for SEEING the POSITIVE in the exchanges! A YES! to incompetence is idiotic, but definitely NOT Rizalism! Keep up your tree-planting projects, kind Sir and remember to keep your BP manageable!

Mr. Victoria:

Finally you said it with honors. TALK IS CHEAP! Right on the money. After your long five years of talking and sending signals of your frustrations, writing dark messages, innuendos, accusations and allegations, you have not moved an inch. You can pull together all the rumors, collect mistakes of others, criticizing people all over, gathering phrases that you have read but nothing in this world can succeed if you perceived talk, talk, talk can deliver your vision or your personal deed.

Even at this point, my colleagues and I are puzzled on what exactly is your motive and the kind of process that you'd expect to guide you to satisfy your goal. Projects and even personal endeavors must have a timetable and target dates, so at the end of the day, you can record and evaluate the progress that you made.

Surely, you cannot revolutionize the world by sitting tight in front of your computer and keep sending messages, involving people in the issues and convince them of your arguments. Change happens when individuals get off their butt and go out there in the field, attending conventions, assemblies and ultimately to the court to make their voices heard and defend their point. Virtual voices in virtual forums may produce virtual support but if you want to do something to reverse the direction to keep your case moving, get off the computer and get down into the muck to find out the fundamental truth. Otherwise, your problem will not be solved and the situation will not improved.

Remember my first email to you? Don't you think that it is time for you to sit down and assess what went wrong and re-think to find a better and logical solution to prove your case? I also did focus about human weaknesses that carelessness may prevail on how we behave and express ourselves? But instead you continued to go after your path and followed your old blueprint. But where are you at this stage? What have you accomplished? Have you done something significant to tell the world that you succeed? Not a thing.

You mentioned about finding the missing euros, amending the KOR constitution, requiring KGOR to broaden their horizons, silence on the Collantes Case, forcing fakes to double time to keep their KGOR (meaning what?), how Canada negatively contributes to global warming, solving poverty in the Philippines and others items in your shopping list but so far what kind of actions and progress have you made that you can be proud of?

In conclusion and in fairness, I am however sensing a good part of you for recognizing my hard work with the Knights of Rizal. In return, I would like to say that there are so many intelligent peace-loving Brother Knights out there both active and inactive and whether they are in Europe, in Canada, in USA, in Manila and all over the world who also deserved promotion, awards and genuine recognition. My admiration to all of them.

I look forward for a better tomorrow, working together in harmony and maintaining respect to one another for the good of the Order.

NON OMNIS MORIAR.


Respectfully yours in Rizal,

Sir Jimmy Marasigan
Canada Region
