The event saw the Philippine Flag being raised in Kawit, Cavite, where the first reading of our country's Declaration of Independence was held. For those not familiar, the Philippine flag is a powerful symbol of the independence movement, with each of its colors carrying a significant meaning: blue represents truth and justice, red symbolizes patriotism, and white stands for equality. The three stars at the corner represent the three main regions of the Philippines - Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Meanwhile, the eight rays of the sun stands for the first eight provinces that went into battle against Spain. During this holiday, numerous parades are celebrated nationwide, including a police and military parade in the city of Manila. This specific event often culminates with a speech by the President, followed by a 21-gun salute. Thank you for your time.
