In celebrating his father’s 106th birth anniversary, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. vowed to honor his father’s memory through public service.
In a brief speech after a mass celebrating his late father’s birth anniversary, President Marcos said that his father served as his mentor and gave him guidance whenever things got tough.
“So as we remember and pay tribute to his memory, let this gathering serve as a testament to the unwavering pursuit of unity that he so passionately espoused for our people. In his memory, may our actions from this point on be directed by the desire to preserve and share the rich heritage of our province, of our nation,” he added.
President Marcos Sr. was born on Sept. 11, 1917, in Sarrat, Ilocos Norte. He served as the country’s 10th president from 1965 to 1986. Senator Imee Marcos, meanwhile, cited the need for the courage and intelligence of her late father, amid the crisis caused by the skyrocketing price of rice.
