NHCP Museo ni Miguel Malvar

In observance of the National Flag Days, the staff of the NHCP Museo ni Miguel Malvar together with the PNP Sto. Tomas conducted a simple yet meaningful flag-raising ceremony yesterday, 28 May 2026, in honor of the Philippine flag. 🇵🇭

More than a symbol of our nation, the Philippine flag stands as a reminder of the courage, unity, and sacrifices of the Filipinos who fought for our freedom. As we proudly raise our flag, may we continue to embody the values of patriotism, respect, and love for country that shape our identity as a people.

Isang tunay na 𝗞𝗮-𝗞𝗨𝗟𝗔𝗬-𝘀𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗻 ang handog ng National Historical Commission of the Philippines sa paglulunsad ng "𝐓𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐚 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐭: 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤" sa ika-8 ng Hunyo sa Metropolitan Theater!

Isa itong interaktibong aklat na may layuning itanim sa kabataan ang pagmamahal at paggalang sa pangunahing simbolo ng ating pagkabansa - ang Pambansang Watawat. Sa paggabay ni Yani, subukin ang ating pagkamalikhain sa pagtahak sa mga mapanghamong maze at pagbibigay-kulay sa iba't-ibang mga pahina! Mas kapana-panabik pa dahil bawat kopya ay may kalakip na kiddie mask para sa mga bata upang mailabas nila ang kanilang inner "Yani!"

🇵🇭 𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗦𝗘 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗚! 🇵🇭

𝗕𝗨𝗞𝗔𝗦 𝗡𝗔 ang simula ng National Flag Days, kaya nagdedekorasyon na ang mga museo at makasaysayang pook na nasa pangangalaga ng NHCP.

Nagsisimula ang National Flag Days sa 28 Mayo bilang paggunita sa anibersaryo ng Labanan ng Alapan, ang unang pangunahing tagumpay ng mga Pilipino nang magsimula muli ang Himagsikan. Dahil sa labis na galak, iwinagayway ni Heneral Emilio Aguinaldo ang Pambansang Watawat sa unang pagkakataon sa kaniyang himpilan sa kasalukuyang Lungsod ng Cavite.

Hinihikayat ang lahat na magsabit ng Pambansang Watawat sa kanilang mga tahanan, paaralan, at tanggapan hanggang Araw ng Kalayaan, 12 Hunyo.

The morning of 25 February found Manila preparing for two inaugurations. The people flocked to Club Filipino in San Juan to witness the start of a new era. All across the metro and in cities and towns across the country, from Baguio to Davao, the people joined in the last wave of People Power.

As the day went on, more and more of the military broke away to side with the people. Triumphal crowds gathered around Nagtahan and Mendiola, cutting up the barbed wire that once separated them to bring home as souvenirs. The people could feel that the a new page had turned in the story of our people; and that they were the driving force for that change. Whatever lay ahead in the future, they would be the ones who would write it. The whole world now knew that in the Philippines, Power was in the hands of the People.

"Bayan Ko" was a popular nationalistic song from the early 20th century. It signified one's longing for the country to be free from oppression and subjugation. As a symbol of our struggle for freedom, the song had become an unofficial 2nd national anthem and remains a staple for celebrations and protests. During the EDSA People Power Revolution, the song was often heard to rally the people during moments of intense pressure or crisis, with Radio Veritas intermittently playing it as part of their broadcast.
