Rizal should never go out of style. In fact, remembering Rizal is the call of our time. Let us re-introduce Rizal to
the youth of today; let us introduce him to ourselves again. His patriotic ideals can help save our nation from the moral abyss that we are
in.
As leaders, both in business and in government, and as Filipino citizens, let us imbue ourselves with Rizal's thoughts
and spread them around like sunshine, bringing hope to those we work with in this arduous task of rebuilding lives and communities in
affected areas.
