Philippine Independence Day

My default homepage for my Internet browser is google.

and i was very happy to see this Google homepage portraying the Philippine flag colors.

if you will try to click the image it will lead you to all sorts of information

regarding Philippine independence

and the history of the Philippines as a whole nation.

I am proud to be Filipino and blogging about my country

is just nothing compared to our ancestors who fought

for our freedom that we are enjoying now.

Happy

112th Philippine Independence Day Anniversary

to all the pinoys and pinays out there

all over the world.

It was Former President Emilio Aguinaldo who proclaimed the sovereignty and Independence of the Filipino people From the Spaniards. But it wasn't granted nor recognize by the United States and Spain (during the Spanish-american war)

as well as other Countries or nations.

Although unrecognized independence from other countries has been confusing of dates,

Filipinos still embraced June 12, 1898, as the glorious date in the history of the Filipino people.

Some historians would still argue with its dates and its proclamation year which is july 4, 1946,

but it doesn't matter anymore as We Filipinos in the world has truly felt the importance of being free and

we will still continue to fight.

One of the biggest Celebration of this year in New york is The Commemoration of The 112th Independence day of the Philippines. It was said to be unexpectedly Successful. The parade, float, programs and activities was very heartwarming.

This is believed as the largest festivity celebrating Independence day outside our Philippines.
