Rizal was not an American-sponsored hero because it was the Filipinos who chose Rizal as our national hero not the Americans. It is true that the Americans suggested Rizal but they were not the one who chose him.
Jose Mercado (Rizal's real name) does not deserve to be the national hero. It was the Americans that propagated the myth of Rizal in order to control the mindset of the Filipinos at that time. It would have been detrimental to the Americans if they allowed the likes of El Supremo Andres Bonifacio, General Antonio Luna, General Artemio Ricarte, and all the other Philippine Revolutionary leaders to be the national hero. During the American occupation, even the Philippine flag was NOT allowed to be displayed anywhere. They erased Spanish as the language of the Filipinos since it was the language used by Rizal, Bonifacio, Luna, and all the other revolutionary leaders and unfortunately replaced it with English.
Because of Jose Rizal's literary woks that awaken the national consciousness and patriotism of the Filipinos...

Filipinos are able to speak different languages easily because the Philippines is a diverse country with multiple regional languages and dialects. Many Filipinos grow up being exposed to different languages from a young age, making it easier for them to pick up new languages quickly. Additionally, the Philippines has a history of colonization and trade with other countries, leading to the integration of various linguistic influences into the local culture.
The National Statistics Office projected that the Philippine population would be 90,457,200 in 2008.
