Ever wondered why there's a Rizal boundary marker in Muntinlupa? As we commemorate the birth anniversary of Dr. Jose Rizal today, let's once again take a look at the might province of Rizal in the 1930s.
In the early 20th century, Rizal once covered a vast area stretching from the slopes of Sierra Madre to the shores of Manila Bay, surrounding the City of Manila.
On June 11, 1901, the Province of Rizal was officially created through Act No. 137 of the First Philippine Commission. It was named after Dr. Jose Rizal.
The province was formed from 32 municipalities taken from the former Province of Manila and the Politico-Military District of Morong. Pasig served as the provincial capital, although San Felipe Neri (now Mandaluyong) briefly became the seat of government in 1904.
Over the years, Rizalโs boundaries changed as municipalities were merged, transferred, or reorganized. Some towns, such as Bosoboso and Novaliches, were absorbed by neighboring municipalities, while Muntinlupa temporarily became part of Laguna before returning to Rizal.
A major milestone came in 1939 with the establishment of Quezon City, which incorporated portions of Caloocan, Marikina, Pasig, and San Juan.
Rizal underwent its most significant transformation on November 7, 1975, when Metropolitan Manila was created through Presidential Decree No. 824. Several municipalities and cities were separated to form the new region.
The remaining towns continued as the Province of Rizal, shaping the province we know today. #Rizal

Yung P1,000-1,500 namin dati, naglalaro na sa P2,000-P2,500 ngayon. Same kWh 'yun ah. Wala kaming aircon. Ref, washing machine, TV, phone charging, electric fan ang pangunahing gamit namin ever since.
MAHIMATAY NAMAN AKO DITO!

THE PHILIPPINE SENATE in 28 days under Alan Peter Cayetano:
Estimated Cost - P700M. Output - chaos, gunfire, Batoโs escape despite ICC-issued warrant while under its โprotective custodyโ, session boycott, failed destabilization attempt, unauthorized committee hearings highlighted by one not presided nor attended by a single senator.
WHAT A WASTE OF TAXPAYERSโ MONEY!
Rep. Marcos has a point.
Media should stop he-said, she-said reporting. This is how fake news has been institutionalized precisely because the media has failed to challenge and independently validate claims.
'HINDI NATIN PONDO 'YANG DSWD-AICS NA 'YAN. HINDI DAPAT GINAGAMIT NG MGA POLITIKO 'YAN'
WATCH: Sen. Erwin Tulfo expressed disappointment over the postponement of the ratification of the Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situations (AICS) bill because their counterpart at the lower house refused to sign the bill and asked for time to "study" it due to concerns on some provisions
Tulfo said the lower house did not particularly agree with the bill's "Anti-Epal" section, which states that the AICS or "ayuda" should not be credited to politicians but to the Department of Social Welfare and Development, noting that the money comes from taxpayers, not from politicians.
