Preparing to embrace globalization. We export workers and caregivers. Our graduates are in the call center. After World War I, parity rights were stifled and the ones who served as guards were military bases. Workers and farmers were buried in poverty and the people were buried in debt . Now that the military base is gone, the Thomasites are gone. But there is the VFA and the English speaking campaign and the schools that my mother was trained to serve in foreign capitals. My hometown is an English speaking zone. We were slaves then until now. We are exporting workers and caregivers. Our graduates are in the call center. And the Philippines, even though it is an agricultural country, has no food for its people. Our thoughts, words and actions are colonial. We are a race of slaves in our own country.

A native language is what will free the people from the shackles of slavery. We read Joel Costa Malabana's meaningful song titled Speak in English Zone. Let's move on to the song review questions and answer guide. First question, do you agree that the native language is what frees the people from the shackles of slavery? Here is what can be your guide answer. I wholeheartedly agree with this because a large part of a nation is its language, which can be freely used to express feelings and attitudes on all matters or events in the country. This is what binds every citizen together. Have an understanding for a great goal. Language is the means by which any misunderstanding and any event can be clarified and justified. Language is also the main identity of a country and an important part of culture to unite the people even though the cultural background is different for the development of a nation. Achieving peace is a complex issue, especially since our country is an island without a common language. But because of this, it became easier to live freely and peacefully. The relationship became strong even though they were far from each other. Second question, what is the message of the song? Here is what can be your guide answer. The song contains comments and criticisms about the situation in the Philippines. After several years of slavery by the Spanish, we were finally freed when America paid them 20 million as if we were their property . This is what I was sold on, the false help of style, the promise of education and freedom. is demonstrated to every Filipino. They have become so cunning in binding the mind that they can willingly make people obey and favor their agenda. They instilled a foreign spirit in the youth. Although a long time has passed since we were under American occupation, if we examine it, we are still not completely free. We still use their language in schools. Be the name of the agencies in our government. All of this is in Wikangkles, which is probably why Filipinos are more familiar with foreign languages than their own language. According to the song, the colonial education brought to the country by foreigners has remained until the present. In history, those who truly care about the country and are aware of the negative effects of fake foreign aid. were punished and suppressed so as not to damage their image shown to the country. When they left the country after World War I, it seemed that Filipinos still remained slaves of foreigners in their own country. There was even a campaign in schools that only English should be the language of instruction so that young people would be more educated. Filipinos enjoyed and embraced this change as a preparation for globalization or global change for the economic development of the country and its people. The language that the heroes fought for is now secondary when it should be the one that is foremost and enriched. You have just watched an important lesson again .
