PRESIDENT Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Saturday, November 30, 2024 urged Filipinos to honor the memory of Gat Andres Bonifacio by finding deeper meaning in his sacrifice for the motherland.
“Let us honor his memory by finding a deeper meaning in his sacrifice and doing our part in liberating our country from the shackles of hunger, corruption, criminality, and other ills of society,” President Marcos said in his message.

We owe them a debt of gratitude for awakening our nationalist consciousness, upholding our sense of identity, and rousing our spirit of self-determination,” the President said.
