honor the noble sacrifices of our ancestors who fought to liberate our
country and establish the thriving democracy that we have today. As we
overcome the COVID19 pandemic, let us honor our modern-day heroes, our
medical front liners, and our essential workers who sacrificed [their]
lives, comfort, and security to secure our fellow Filipinos,” he said.
Representing the President was Executive Secretary
Salvador Medialdea who led the flag-raising and wreath-laying ceremonies

bravely fought for independence and the present-day Filipino heroes who
risked their lives for the peace and safety of the nation.
“May we all learn from the valiant examples of the past
and present heroes and build on them to achieve a stronger future for
all,” added President Duterte.#
