Bilang isang batang lumaki sa Mindanao, ramdam ko kung paanong natatabunan ng Filipino ang mga katutubong wika. Aminado ako, madalas akong mahumaling sa mga usong salita at mapabayaan ang aking bernakular. Halimbawa, mas ginagamit ko ang salitang “paldo” kaysa sa katumbas nitong Bisaya na itinuro sa akin ng aking mga magulang at lolo’t lola. Hindi ako nag-iisa. Sa dami ng kabataang mas bihasa sa Filipino o Ingles kaysa sa sariling wika, malinaw sa akin na may problema sa paraan ng ating selebrasyon. Ayon nga sa Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (KWF), higit sa 180 wika ang mayroon tayo. Kaya’t para sa akin, napakakitid kung sa Filipino lamang iikot ang ating kamalayan.

Kapag ipinagdiriwang ang Buwan ng Wika, napapansin ko na nakasentro ang lahat ng mga presentasyon sa Filipino: tula, awit, sanaysay, sayaw, maging mga makukulay na kasuotan. Totoo, nakaaaliw ang mga ito. Ngunit kapag tinatanong ko ang mga kaklase ko kung kaya ba nilang magsalin ng isa sa kanilang sariling wika, kadalasan ay hindi sila makasagot. Ang resulta? Isang selebrasyong maganda sa mata ngunit mababaw sa diwa. At para sa akin, dito nagsisimula ang maling paniniwala na mas mababa ang halaga ng mga nasa rehiyon—lalo na kaming mga Bisaya na madalas ituring na “laylayan” ng pambansang identidad.

Sa aking palagay, kapag Filipino lamang ang itinatampok, unti-unti nating binubura ang tradisyon, kasaysayan, at panitikan na nakapaloob sa ating mga katutubong wika. Isipin na lang ang Darangen ng Maranao, isang epikong kinilala ng UNESCO bilang obra ng sangkatauhan. Paano ito maisusulong kung nakapako lang tayo sa Filipino? Kung ganito rin lamang, mas tama sig**ong tawagin itong “Buwan ng Wikang Filipino” kaysa “Buwan ng Wika.”

Hindi sa isinasantabi ko ang halaga ng wikang Filipino. Para sa akin, ito ang nagsisilbing lingua franca o tulay na ginagamit sa paaralan, pamahalaan, at midya. Subalit hindi dapat maging dahilan ang tulay upang tabunan ang mga daang patungo sa ating pinagmulan. Ang Ilocano, Waray, Hiligaynon, Kapampangan, Cebuano at iba pang mga wika ay hindi lang mga salita; sila’y sisidlan ng ating mga alaala at kultura.

Personal kong nakikita ang kahalagahan ng paggamit ng sariling wika sa pakikipag-ugnayan. Kapag ginagamit ko ang Bisaya sa pakikipag-usap sa aking mga kapitbahay, mas nakikilala nila ako, at mas nakikibahagi ako sa kanilang kwento. Mas buo ang pakiramdam ng pagiging kabilang sa isang pamayanan. Sa tingin ko, dito nakaugat ang tunay na kapangyarihan ng wika—ang maglapit ng tao sa isa’t isa.

Kaya’t para sa akin, mawawalan ng saysay ang Buwan ng Wika kung Filipino lamang ang ating maririnig. Hinihikayat ko ang bawat g**o, magulang, at kapwa kabataan: gamitin natin muli ang sariling wika—sa tahanan, paaralan, at komunidad. Huwag nating hayaang manatiling anino ang mga salitang pamana ng ating mga ninuno. Sapagkat sa bawat paggamit natin ng sariling wika, lalo nating pinatitibay ang ating pagkatao at masisig**o ang pamana ng ating kultura para sa susunod na henerasyon—para sa batang tulad ko, at para rin sa batang tulad mo.

NATIONAL PRESS FREEDOM DAY|Honoring Del Pilar, Defending the Campus Press

Every 30th of August, we commemorate National Press Freedom Day in honor of Marcelo H. del Pilar, “Plaridel,” the father of Philippine journalism. He did not wield a sword or rifle against colonial oppression; instead, he fought with pen and paper, armed with a relentless desire for truth.

Through his writings, Del Pilar founded the first Filipino publication that fearlessly exposed injustice. His legacy lives on—not only in the bustling newsrooms of today’s media but also in the school publications where young journalists sharpen their voices and shape their convictions. From classroom desks to professional presses, the mission remains the same: to deliver truth without fear.

As José Rizal once said, “Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan.” Campus journalism is proof of this hope. Student journalists are trained not only in the craft of writing but in the values of integrity, courage, and accountability. They carry the duty to shed light on the issues that will shape the nation they are destined to inherit. To report with fairness, fearlessness, and fidelity to facts is not just their privilege—it is their vow to protect the democracy upon which their future depends.

But this noble duty is not without struggles. Like the national press, the campus press faces censorship, prior restraint from administrators, lack of funding, and even intimidation. These challenges silence voices and stifle the truth, denying the youth their rightful platform to speak on matters that affect them and the country they will one day lead.

The voices of the youth must not be muted. To strengthen campus journalism is to strengthen democracy itself. If we silence the young today, we weaken the defenders of truth tomorrow. Press freedom does not begin in the halls of Congress or the pages of national dailies—it begins in the classroom, wherever a student dares to write what must be said.

SA MGA LARAWAN | LARO NG LAHI SA BUWAN NG WIKA 2025

Bilang bahagi ng taunang selebrasyon ng Buwan ng Wika, isinagawa ng Mapúa Malayan Colleges Mindanao ang Laro ng Lahi noong Agosto 22, 2025 sa school play court.

Layunin ng aktibidad na ito na linangin at higit pang mapalalim ang pagpapahalaga ng mga mag-aaral sa kulturang Pilipino sa pamamagitan ng mga katutubong laro.

Tampok sa paligsahan ang mga larong Pilipino gaya ng karera ng sako, patintero, hula hoop relay, dampa, sipa, at batakan.

Dahil sa dami ng mga kalahok mula sa iba’t ibang antas, hinati ang paligsahan sa tatlong iskedyul upang matiyak ang kaayusan at pagiging patas ng laro para sa bawat grupo ng mag-aaral.

Nagsimula ang palaro para sa Junior High School (Baitang 7–10) mula 7:00 AM hanggang 10:00 AM, na agad sinundan ng Baitang 11 mula 10:00 AM hanggang 12:00 NN, at isinara ng mga mag-aaral mula sa Baitang 12 mula 1:00 PM hanggang 3:00 PM.

Makulay, masaya, at puno ng diwa ng pagkakaisa ang naging takbo ng Laro ng Lahi, hindi lamang nito muling inilapit sa kabataan ang mga tradisyunal na larong Pilipino, kundi nagsilbi rin itong pagpapamalas ng bayanihan, sportsmanship, at pagmamalasakit sa sariling kultura.
