Raise Your Flag

-

     Independence Day is one of the most important anniversaries in Philippine history because it commemorates the country's independence from Spanish domination on June 12, 1898. The Filipinos commemorate it every year on June 12th. On August 4, 1964, former President Diosdado Macapagal signed Republic Act No. 4166, which established the annual June 12 commemoration of Philippine Independence Day. This Act made the holiday legitimate, which commemorates General Emilio Aguinaldo's and Filipino revolutionary forces' declaration of independence from Spanish domination on June 12, 1898.



 In 1898, the Philippine flag was flown for the first time, and the national song was played for the first time. The statement was not recognized by Spain or the United States, hence liberty was short-lived. The Treaty of Paris, signed in 1898, put an end to the conflict between Spain and the United States. The Philippines' whole archipelago was handed up to the United States by Spain. In 1899, the Philippines revolted against the United States, and the Treaty of Manila granted them national sovereignty on July 4, 1946.



 Independence Day was officially observed on July 4 until August 4, 1964, when Republic Act No. 4166 was passed, relocating the holiday to June 12. The Republic of the Philippines' Flag, which represents the country, is comprised of the following elements: Peace, honesty, and justice are symbolized by the royal blue field. Patriotism and valor are symbolized by the scarlet crimson field. Equality and brotherhood are symbolized by the white triangle. The three main geographical regions of the country, namely Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, are represented by three stars on the triangle's corners. The sun in the triangle's center features eight rays, each signifying one of the eight Philippine provinces that led the uprising against Spain. During the Philippines' Independence Day celebrations, the flag can be seen in a variety of locations around the country's villages and cities.

It is not only the virus killing people but the poverty. In recovering a country, the people must work together. It may take a lot of time and hard work in resilient. People starts to recover themselves, then home, until it reaches the community. The Philippines can recover if the Filipino’s starts from themselves and stop ranting and blaming why the Philippines doesn’t have progress. In the end, we can make it through this pandemic caused. We just need to believe and have faith on each other. Let us work together toward a more resilient Philippines.

      Quality education during COVID-19 pandemic is not effective. It doesn’t make us students productive and enhance our knowledge. Especially this modular class modules doesn’t have complete descriptions and instructions. Our modules doesn’t provide a complete and full descriptions or discussions. There are a lot of task and activities to answer that is questionable and confusing. We need to search some questions on the internet to answer the task. We, students feels like it’s not learning anymore, it is about passing. Academic freeze is not the solution regarding to this topic. The modules and learning activity sheets just needs more discussion part than task or activities. We can solve this and have the desired quality education if we students and teachers cooperate.

  Dear Mr. President, The President of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte. Many Filipino hates him, especially now during this pandemic. The #OUSTDU30 was still trending on the internet. Being the president on a country that don’t follow the rules and all they do is rant and rally was really hard. Your own people are downing you. To our president, please stay strong and hold on to the people who believe on you. No president is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes, since we are humans. On this type of situation, the COVID-19 pandemic, please do better for our country. I believed we can be saved and have a better country. Work hard and do what you think is right with the voices of the Filipino’s. Do it for us and for the betterment of our country, Philippines. I’m not angry but I’m disappointed. There is still a chance that we can change this. We stand as one, we fight as one.
