MANILA – President Rodrigo Duterte urged Filipinos to take inspiration from national heroes.
The Philippines celebrates the National Heroes’ Day today.
“We are forever grateful for their noble deeds and sacrifice,” Duterte said in a statement. “Let us honor them by upholding the rule of law, protecting our nation and fostering goodwill among ourselves.”
Each of the national heroes dedicated their lives to serve others so the future generations would have the right to a comfortable life, said the President.
“We will harness the same virtues as we continue to fight against lawlessness, criminality and poverty that hinder us from achieving our full potential,” he said.
Duterte also encouraged the young Filipinos to emulate and practice the national heroes’ examples.
“As we commemorate the life and work of our national heroes, we must continue to embrace their ways in our daily undertakings,” he said./PN
