IN PHOTOS: Rizal monuments around the world
MovePH, Rappler's civic engageme nt arm, asks netizens to take the #RapplerChallenge by sharing photos of Rizal monuments around the world

MANILA, Philippines – The Philippines commemorated the 119th death anniversary of Jose Rizal on Wednesday, December 30, 

President Benigno Aquino III graced the flag-raising and wreath-laying ceremonies at the Rizal Park in Manila on Wednesday.

“Dr Jose Rizal worked hard to pursue our independence, serving as a catalyst for change; his works remain relevant to this day, a reminder of a past when freedom seemed beyond our reach. Let us remember him on this occasion, along with other heroes who shared their strength and vision to make the Philippines the nation it is today,” Aquino said. 

To remind the youth about the hero’s legacy, MovePH asked netizens to take the #RapplerChallenge by posting on social media photos of Rizal monuments around the world.

Below are the images taken from different countries. Check them out here:
