BONIFACIO: FLAME OF FREEDOM

On November 30, 1863, a revolutionary hero was born—Andres Bonifacio, the Father of the Philippine Revolution and Supremo of Katipunan. His leadership ignited the flame of resistance that united Filipinos in the fight against colonial oppression.

Today, as we commemorate Bonifacio Day, let us honor his unwavering courage and the determination of every Filipino who stood beside him in the struggle for our nation’s freedom. May his patriotism inspire us to uphold our duties as Filipinos—to defend our liberties, nurture unity, and continue striving for a just and progressive Philippines.
