Objectives (Comparison)

because they desire
different powers and
commodities.
Apart from that, United
States wanted to spread
Protestantism while
Japan wanted to use
the Philippines for
strategic purposes.
Objectives (Conclusion)
• The United States seemed
to have long-term plans
for the Philippines ever
since the time they
colonized it.
• Overtime, dependence on
the United States started
to develop within the
hearts and minds of the
Filipinos.
Rhetoric
1. White man’s burden
2. Benevolent
Assimilation
Proclamation
Rhetoric
• Greater East-Asia Coprosperity Sphere
Rhetoric (Comparison)
• Both wanted to impose
their own ideals,
therefore replacing
the impression that has
been left by the
previous colonizer.
• In their own ways, they
wanted the Philippines
to abide to their rules
and ways of life.
Rhetoric (Conclusion)

was a victim of

• Creation of Japanese
Military administration
• Tydings-McDuffie Law
Politics (Comparison)
• They are not similar.
•
• They have imposed
different sets of laws
though both seemed to
have the same
intentions and that is to
remodel current
Philippine government
and promise
independence.
Politics (Conclusion)
• The Americans wanted to
control the Philippines by
implementing laws, while the
Japanese wanted control using
brute force
• Most of the laws that they
established was to have more
power from us.
• As the Philippines were
recovering from the Spanish
regime, in creation of their new
government, colonizers took
advantage on giving the country
“aid” in the form of promising
laws and acts that falsely
ensures freedom.
Economic
• Payne-Aldrich Act
• Underwood-Simmons
Act
• Homestead
• Free Patent
• Selling of Friar Lands
• Infrastructure projects
like Baguio
Economic
• Black Market and buy and sell
through selling of cable wires and
electric wires to the japanese
• Philippine financial institutions were
crippled, isolated and denied of
hard currency
• Inflation due to lack of hard
currency
• Introdution of Mickey Mouse
Money
• High demand but there was no
supply of goods
• Hoarding of basic commodities
• Cotton and copra was assigned in
the Philippines to be planted
Economic (Comparison)
• With regards to the
economics, it is evident that
both are different. The
Americans provided laws in
relations to tarrifs, lands,
imports, exports and this
improved the economy of
the Philippines while the
Japanese used Philippine
resources as much as they
can and this caused caused
the economy to decline.
Cultural (Conclusion)
• Both colonizers took advantage
of our national resources.
• More products are offered to us
but then we lost more than what
we gained
• The motives of both colonizers
can be seen clearly here though
the American economic
strategy can be considered as
a cover for their initial plan to
take advantage on exporting
goods. The Japanese was clear in
torturing the Filipinos by
starving them.

Socio-cultural
Religious-Educational (Comparison)
• These show and teach American
and Japanese culture to Filipinos
• Not similar because we gained
so much from the Americans like
industrialization and
modernization but for the
Japanese, we lost so much.
• No as the Japanese showed
negative impact on the culture
of the Philippines including
censorship and restrictions while
the American period helped
flourish the country’s culture by
imparting their own
Socio-cultural
Religious-Educational (Conclusion)
• They are different in such as way
that even though they spread
part of the culture, it has caused
several unpredictable effects to
that of the Filipinos.
• The Americans was able to
introduce public school systems,
change names of public places,
and flourish newspapers and
magazines.
• On the other hand, the Japanese
censored newspapers and media
and every single thing was under
the Japanese rule.

Filipino Response
(Comparison)
• They believe that befriending
the Americans would bring them
independence or that it would
be better if we were a state of
America.
• Similar because these people
resided to the US and the
Japanese people
• No as some of the pro-American
people were just forced to sign
peace treaties and some served
as political instruments during
both eras. MAKAPILI on the
other hand was delegated by the
gov't.
Filipino Response (Conclusion)
• Some Filipinos had
their own reasons for
siding with the
country's colonizers;
and some were also
forced.
