Why did the reform movement fail?
3 MAIN REASONS WHY THE REFORM MOVEMENT FAILED.

• First, the Spanish high officials in Spain were too busy with
their own problems and they did’nt enough time to listen to
the collective voice of the reformists.
• Second, the reformists in Spain and in the Philippines did not
have the necessary financial means which make their
campaigns ineffective.
• Third, the reformists themselves were not united.
(Agoncillo, 1960)
