AT A GLANCE:
In Proclamation No. 28, former President Diosdado Macapagal declared June 12 as Philippine Independence Day.
Under Proclamation No. 28, the establishment of the Philippine Republic by the Revolutionary Government under General Emilio Aguinaldo on June 12, 1898, marked our people’s declaration and exercise of their right to self-determination, liberty, and independence.
Such a historic and inspiring action was a legitimate assertion by the Filipino nation of their natural and inalienable claim to freedom and independence, which is an inherent right of every people not dependent upon the will and discretion of another.
The transcendental importance of the event demands that it be observed throughout the land with fitting ceremonies to the end that it will be cherished forever in the hearts of the Filipino people and inspire them and posterity to greater dedication and endeavor for the welfare of the country and well-being of man-kind.
In the same proclamation, former president Diosdado Macapagal declared June 12 as a day to commemorate the Filipino’s declaration of their inherent and inalienable right to freedom and independence.
He urged all national, provincial, city and municipal officials throughout the country to make arrangements in their respective localities for the appropriate celebration of the occasion as Philippine Independence Day.
