served as a lasting inspiration for the Filipino nation to remain
united and determined in preserving our morality and emancipation,
which Rizal has conquered dauntlessly in the field of Bagumbayan.
In his earnest desire for liberty, he admoonished that by means
of education and of labor, we could gain a personality and character
of our own that ensue genuine redemption.
Once and for all injustice has been defeated and no longer shall
we allow, any form of threat or adversity to dominate us, rather,
let us initiate succesful and beneficial reforms that flow from
the Divine Power above. His cognizance of a perfect dwelling where
faith abounds and the God reigns, inspirits us to exalt and honor
God in our land trusting that He alone has the ultimate power to
bless or destroy a nation.
I am hopeful that this 107th commemoration of the martyrdom of
Dr. Jose P. Rizal develop in us a deeper sense of nationalism and
that justice among our people shall rule, may the banner of liberty
continue to fly high and free, imbued with the ideals of peace and
harmony so that we shall move onwards triumphantly for the progress
of Filipino nation.
Mabuhay!
