Take Note!
Spanish- Reign for 300 years
American- 50 years
Japanese- about four years
It is thus not surprising that despite the measure

in transforming the values and attitudes of the
people in line with their vision of the NEW ORDER.
A contributory factor was widely reported
brutalities that ushered in the Japanese occupation
that the filipinos did not experience with the same
degree during the American period
