ASPECTS DESCRIPTION

The town of San CHAPTER 10: THE TOWN


Diego
Almost on the margin of the lake, in the midst of meadows
and paddy-fields, lies the town of San Diego. From it sugar,
rice, coffee, and fruits are either exported or sold for a small
part of their value to the Chinese, who exploit the simplicity
and vices of the native farmers.

The house of CHAPTER 1: A SOCIAL GATHERING


Capitan Tiago
Kapitan Tiyago's house was described as being in Daang
Anloague (Anloague Street) near one of the streaming
rivulets of Pasig River called Binundok River. The
description of the house could be likened to the status of
Philippine society under Spanish rule.

plazas are withered, the unpaved streets choke people
with dust on dry days and turn into slurry on rainy days,
and the architecture is uninspiring.

Pasig River CHAPTER 1: A SOCIAL GATHERING

It is a rather large building, in the style of many in the country,


and fronts upon the arm of the Pasig which is known to some
as the Binondo River, and which, like all the streams in
Manila, plays the varied rôles of bath, sewer, laundry, fishery,
means of transportation and communication, and even
drinking water if the Chinese water-carrier finds it convenient.

The Church and the CHAPTER 15: THE SACRISTAN


clergy
The clergy often conflate piety with riches.  The church
financially manipulates people to keep them in a state of
subservience and debt. The church authorities keep less
powerful members in a perpetual state of subordination.
