PHILIPPINE ARMY FOUNDING ANNIVERSARY
Assalamu Alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Madayaw ug maayong adlaw kaninyong tanan. Magandang araw sa inyong lahat.My warmest congratulations to the Philippine Army on your 129th Founding Anniversary.
Today, we honor a legacy defined by selfless service and the highest form of sacrifice.
Your unyielding courage is the reason our Republic remains sovereign, and our people remain free.
By dismantling the camps of the New People’s Army and neutralizing the threats of terrorism, you have given our communities the room to breathe, grow, and thrive.
Your victories against insurgency are not just tactical wins—they are the building blocks of a stable and prosperous nation.Beyond the battlefield, you are also the first to arrive in times of disaster—serving as a beacon of hope and a lifeline to our people during their darkest hours.
As you move forward, remain immovable in your integrity.
I count on you to stay steadfast as our pillar of hope, ensuring that no Filipino has to live in fear. Continue to be the shield that protects our democracy and the strength that guards our future.Isang pagsaludo sa Hukbong Katihan ng Pilipinas!
Mabuhay kayong lahat!
Mahalin natin ang Pilipinas—para sa Diyos, sa Bayan, at sa bawat Pamilyang Pilipino.
Shukran
SARA Z. DUTERTEVice President of the Philippines
