MANILA — President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. has called upon Filipinos to contribute to the future of our beloved motherland in his New Year’s message for 2024.
“As we welcome 2024 with great optimism, I urge every Filipino from every corner of the world to contribute to the future of our beloved motherland. Let us embody the spirit of solidarity through acts of kindness, volunteerism, and compassion, recognizing that each of us is a catalyst for our country’s meaningful social transformation,” Marcos said.
“As a nation, we bid farewell to the challenges and triumphs of the past year and embrace a new dawn of opportunity and hope that heralds another fresh start for all. Indeed, every new beginning allows us to reflect on what we have accomplished, move forward with the lessons we have learned, and reinforce the unity we have forged as a people,” the Chief Executive added.
Marcos also expressed delight in welcoming the new year, committing to “strengthen bonds and chart a new roadmap for tomorrow.”
“Let the dream of a revitalized Philippines—a Bagong Pilipinas—guide our every endeavor as we bring forth peace, progress, and prosperity for all,” he said.
