The Pearl of the Orient Seas has been freed

-


After more than 300 years under Spanish domination, the Pearl of the Orient Seas has been emancipated, and Independence Day Philippines is one of the most important festivities in the country.

Every June 12th, the Philippines celebrates its independence. Emilio Aguinaldo first raised the Philippine flag and declared independence in Kawit, Cavite, after hundreds of years under Spanish rule. This was also the place where  the Marcha Nacional Filipina, which became the music to the Philippines national anthem, was first heard.


The Philippines was under Spanish administration from the 16th through the 19th centuries. Filipinos attempted to break free in 1896, which ended in the Philippine Revolution.

On June 12, 1898, Emilio Aguinaldo declared Philippine independence, despite the fact that the country lacked two key characteristics of statehood: territory and sovereignty. The area lacked the legitimacy that comes with international recognition. Aguinaldo's government lacked sovereignty because the Philippines were still under Spanish authority at the time.

When the Philippine Revolution ended in August 1898, the Philippine-American War broke out the following year, and America colonized the Philippines for the next 50 years. The Philippines obtained independence from the West on July 4, 1946. The Philippines formally became a state with people, territory, administration, and sovereignty at that time.

However, Araw ng Kalayaan date falls on June 12 because it was the day when Filipinos showed the world how much Filipinos value freedom and democracy, proving that we can stand on our own. Hence, the birth of the independence day PH.

It is now the final Quarter. Overall, this school year has been a fantastic learning experience. In our ICT class, I learned a lot throughout the school year. This quarter, we familiarized ourselves with the fundamental ideas of Microsoft FrontPage, such as the many parts of it and the significance of MS FrontPage. We do, however, continue to write and publish  blogs and make comments on them. Challenges and setbacks are a vital part of learning, therefore I had some difficulties in ICT this quarter, but I remained calm and determined to conquer them. As we approach the end of the school year in our ICT class, I am grateful and thankful to our Almighty God for allowing me to complete the last quarter of this school year despite the Covid-19 pandemic. All I have to do now is put those lessons into practice in my daily life since I know that  they are important and will always be relevant in my life as a student-person.

Fifteen years ago, a noble idea developed in the minds of a group of civic spirited Ilocanos who wanted to promote cultural awareness and preserve the rich historical and cultural heritage of Ilocos Norte. They wanted to rekindle in the youth and future generations the pride of their heritage. The magnificent idea developed and is now a living reality, KANNAWIDAN, the Iloko Foundation of Arts and Culture. Ilocos Sur has a rich heritage and unique culture that are to be preserved for the next generations because it is observed that many of these traditions, songs, dances and other Ilocano culture are not familiar to the younger generations already. Instead,children of today are paying more attention to the modern and novelty dances they seen on the television than the traditional ones. There is also a need to evaluate the different products of the different municipalities and the agricultural products and livestock of the farmers and fisher folks. Because of this, the ...
