Rizal was ordered arrested by Governor General Eulogio Despujol primarily due to his perceived role in the growing nationalist sentiments and revolutionary movements in the Philippines. His writings, particularly "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo," were seen as inciting anti-colonial sentiments and undermining Spanish authority. Additionally, Rizal's involvement with the reform movement and his association with other nationalist leaders raised concerns among colonial authorities about potential uprisings. Ultimately, his arrest was part of a broader effort to suppress dissent and maintain colonial control.
While in Hong Kong, Rizal planned to establish a Filipino colony in Borneo under the protectorate of the North Borneo Company. The British Governor granted him permission to establish a settlement on a 190,000-acre property in North Borneo. However, the Spanish Governor General of the Philippines, Governor Eulogio Despujol, disapproved of the project, saying it was impractical for Filipinos to develop foreign territories when the Philippines itself needed development.
