Founding Anniversary of Liberal Party of the Philippines
President Benigno S. Aquino III led Friday the celebration of the Liberal Party’s (LP) 66th foundation anniversary, saying he’s a proud member of the party that spearheads reform in the country.
“Sa Liberal Party… hindi natin ipagkakanulo ang ating tungkulin, hindi tayo malilihis ng landas ng prinsipyo, at hindi natin pagtataksilan ang taumbayan,” the President said in his message during the anniversary celebration held at Liberal Party headquarters in Cubao, Quezon City.
“Ang boss natin ay ang mamayang Pilipino. Kinikilala natin ang biyayang kaloob nila sa atin. Ang biyaya ng pagkakataong maglingkod sa kanila. Hindi po tayo nakalilimot sa ating sinumpaang tungkulin at tuwid na tuwid po ang takbo ng bangka ng bayan,” he said.
President Aquino said that the country, under a president who is a Liberal Party member, started the New Year with good news as the government inaugurated many businesses and investments that opened more opportunities for Filipinos.
The reforms being initiated by the government started to take effect, according to the President, adding this was good for the country because it increased investors’ confidence in putting their businesses in the Philippines.
