Rotaract originally began as a Rotary International youth programme in 1968 and has now grown into a major Rotary-sponsored organisation of over 8,200 clubs spread around the world and 195,000 + members. [1] It is a service, leadership and community service organisation for young men and women between the ages 18–30. Rotaract focuses on the development of young adults as leaders in their communities and workplaces. Clubs around the world also take part in international service projects, in a global effort to bring peace and international understanding to the world. [2]
"Rotaract" stands for "Rotary in Action", [3] although the name originally comes from a combination of "Rotary" and "Interact" (International + Action), the high school level programme created by Rotary International in 1962.[4]
Most Rotaract activities take place at the club level. Rotaract clubs hold formal meetings, usually every two weeks, which feature speakers, special outings, social activities, discussions or visits to other clubs. Club members get together on designated days for service project work, social events, or professional/leadership development workshops. [5] [6]
The purpose of Rotaract is to provide an opportunity for young men and women to enhance the knowledge and skills that will assist them in personal development, to address the physical and social needs of their communities, and to promote better relations between all people worldwide through a framework of friendship and service. [7]
To be eligible for membership, prospective members must be 18–30 years of age, show that they are committed to Rotaract, and show that they are of good standing in the community. After being approved by the club, prospective members are 'inducted' to become members, also known as 'Rotaractors'. Clubs generally charge a small annual membership fee to cover costs. [8]

THE Mines and Geosciences Bureau has intensified its information campaign on how to cope with landslides and floods. “We are amplifying our information campaign in areas where landslides and episodes of flooding will most likely occur,” said MGB 7 Director Loreto Alburo.
“We should be very vigilant and alert at all times as we don’t know when heavy rains will occur, especially those communities that live near or at the foot of the mountains, as many geohazards are rain-induced,” Alburo said.
MGB 7 identified portions of mountain barangays of Cebu City, Balamban, Toledo City, Pinamungajan, Dumanjug, Ronda, Asturias, Catmon and Talisay City as prone to landslides. The geohazard mapping identifies possible settlement sites, properties and infrastructure that could be affected by landslides.
The activity also identified areas that are prone to floods, landslides, mudflows and other ground movements. Areas that are prone to landslides are sites of recent ground movements and those that have numerous and large tension cracks that would directly affect the community.
Landslides are also likely to occur in areas that are natural drainages or waterways and steep slopes.
These areas in Cebu City are Barangays Lusaran, Binaliw, Guba, Budlaan, Malubog, Buot-Taup, Busay, Sirao, Taptap, Tagbao, Tabunan, Pung-ol Sibugay, Sudlon II, Sudlon I, Sinsin, Buhisan, Pamutan, Sapangdaku, and Adlaon.
Also prone to landslides are Barangays Hingatmonan, Lamesa, Luca, Ginatilan, Cabasiangan, Matun-og, Canso-moroy, Gaas, Magsaysay, Cabagdalan, and Duangan in Balamban. Other landslide-prone areas are Tungkay, Pangamihan, Bagacay, Loay and Don Andres Sorian in Toledo City; Barangay Lamac in Pinamungajan; and Agbanga, Baye, Bairan, Kanluangan and Sak-sak in Asturias.
There are also 12 barangays in Catmon that are prone to landslides as well as all mountain barangays in Talisay City, Barangay Doldol Purok 3 in Dumanjug and Barangay Cansalonoy in Ronda town.

Every Filipino knows Jose Rizal. Or so we think. The best way to know what's in a man's heart is by finding out what's in his dinner plate.
Our hero's plate was always filled with the flavors, colors, and textures that reflect the rich Filipino culture and heritage. Was the palate of this extraordinary man any different from the ordinary Filipino?
Hosted by Cesar Montano, watch this first-ever food documentary about our beloved national hero entitled Piging Para Kay Pepe. Directed by Rico Gutierrez. Produced by GMA News and Public Affairs.

In line with the celebration of the 150th birth anniversary of our National Hero, Jose Rizal, the Philippine Postal Corporation is coming up with the Jose Rizal@150 stamps which will be issued on June 19, 2011. It is classified as a “Commemorative” kind of issue with a denomination of P 7.00 and a quantity of 70,000 pieces each for two se-tenant pairs. Also available is a souvenir sheet with a denomination of P 150.00 and a quantity of 6,000 pieces.
Moreover, Philpost launched an exhibit of stamps and other memorabilia dubbed as “ Rizaliana Collection on Stamps Exhibit by Jorge Cuyugan and Philatelic friends” last Monday, June 13 at the lobby of the historic Manila Central Post Office Building in Liwasang Bonifacio, Manila. The exhibit will run until the 30th of June.
The opening of the exhibit were attended by Commission on Information and Communications Technology (CICT) Secretary Ivan John E., former Senator Nikki Coseteng, NHCP representative Carminda Arevalo and Atty. Ramoncita Reyes, a member of Rizal Family.
On display are complete sets of Rizal stamps issued by PhilPost including winning artworks of the Jose Rizal stamp design contest conducted by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP). Three Fine Arts students from the Far Eastern University (FEU) won the contest that aims to promote Rizal’s greatness and contribution to our nation.
The exhibit contains an almost complete collection of Rizalian stamps and other philatelic items limited to his self portrait, monuments and works from the very first issue of 1906 to the latest issues of Rizal stamps on June 19 which are presented in chronological order with introductory texts for each issue.
The exhibit will feature all original items never before featured or shown in any exhibits for viewers to fully appreciate. Visitors and students will also have the chance to view special related trivia’s, pictures and Rizalian collections.
The winning stamp designs which are included in the exhibit will be used by the Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost) in launching the special limited stamps of Rizal @ 150 on June 19, the national hero’s birth anniversary.
Marc Aran Reyes, Deanne Fernandez, and Lex Kempho Lacar won the student category in the contest.The young artists created the stamp designs based on their interpretation of Rizal’s ideals.
Fernandez’s stamp design uses the oft-used black and white drawing of Rizal, along with the cover of Rizal’s first novel “Noli Me Tangere.” An oil lamp, which was typically used as evening light, symbolized enlightenment and reason.
For Reyes, Rizal is seen with a white dove beside him, the dove symbolizing freedom from Spanish rule that the Laguna native wished for the Philippines.
The designs of Fernandez and Reyes will be used as stamps while Lacar’s design will be for the cachet of the First Day Cover Envelope that will be issued on June 19.

The designs of Fernandez and Reyes will be used as stamps while Lacar’s design will be for the cachet of the First Day Cover Envelope that will be issued on June 19.

Father's Day is a celebration of fathers inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting. Father's Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, special dinners to fathers, and family-oriented activities.
The first observance of Father's Day actually took place in Fairmont, West Virginia on July 5, 1908. It was organized by Mrs. Grace Golden Clayton, who wanted to celebrate the lives of the 210 fathers who had been lost in the Monongah Mining disaster several months earlier in Monongah, West Virginia, on December 6, 1907. It is possible that Clayton was influenced by the first celebration of Mother's Day that same year, just a few miles away. Clayton chose the Sunday nearest to the birthday of her recently deceased father.
Unfortunately, the day was overshadowed by other events in the city, West Virginia did not officially register the holiday, and it was not celebrated again. Instead, credit for Father's Day went to Sonora Dodd from Spokane, who invented independently her own celebration of Father's Day just two years later, also influenced by Jarvis' Mother's Day.
Clayton's celebration was forgotten until 1972, when one of the attendants to the celebration saw Nixon's proclamation of Father's Day, and worked to recover its legacy. The celebration is now held every year in the Central United Methodist Church, as the Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was torn down in 1922. Fairmont is now promoted as the "Home of the First Father's Day Service".

Facebook, it turns out, isn't just a waste of time. People who use it have more close friends, get more social support and report being more politically engaged than those who don't, according to a new national study on Americans and social networks.
The report comes as Facebook, Twitter and even the buttoned-up, career-oriented LinkedIn continue to engrain themselves in our daily lives and change the way we interact with friends, co-workers and long-lost high school buddies. Released Thursday by the Pew Internet and American Life Project, the report also found that Facebook users are more trusting than their non-networked counterparts.
When accounting for all other factors — such as age, education level or race — Facebook users were 43 percent more likely than other Internet users to say that "most people can be trusted." Compared with people who don't use the Internet at all, Facebook users were three times more trusting.
The reason for this is not entirely clear. One possible explanation: People on social networks are more willing to trust others because they interact with a larger number of people in a more diverse setting, said Keith Hampton, the main author of the study and a communications professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
When all else is equal, people who use Facebook also have 9 percent more close ties in their overall social network than other Internet users. This backs an earlier report from Pew that, contrary to studies done earlier in the decade, the Internet is not linked to social isolation. Rather, it can lead to larger, more diverse social networks.
Social-networking users also scored high in political engagement. Because LinkedIn users (older, male and more educated) fall into a demographic category that's more politically active than the general population, they were most likely to vote or attend political rallies. But after adjusting for those characteristics, Facebook users, especially those who use the site multiple times a day, turned out to be more politically involved than those who don't use it.
Overall, the average American has a little more than two close confidants, 2.16 to be exact, according to the report. This is up from an average of 1.93 close ties that Americans reported having in 2008. There are also fewer lonely people: 9 percent of respondents said they had no one with whom they could discuss important matters. That's down from 12 percent in 2008.
The report didn't try to dig into cause and effect, so it's not clear whether the widening use of social networks is causing less loneliness. But it did find that people who use the Internet are less socially isolated than those who don't. Those on social networks, even less so — just 5 percent said they had no one to talk to about important stuff.
The researchers also got numbers to back up what's in the mind of many Facebook users past a certain age: Yes, all your old high school classmates really are coming out of the woodwork and "friending" you. The average Facebook user has 56 friends on the site from high school. That's far more than any other social group, including extended family, co-workers or college classmates.
Facebook's settings let users add the high school they attended to their profile, along with the year they graduated. Other users can then search for their classmates and add them as friends for a virtual reunion.
In the past, when people went to college or got jobs and moved away from their home towns, they left those relationships behind, too. This was especially true in the 1960s, when women not in the work force would move to the suburbs with their husbands and face a great deal of isolation, Hampton said.
Now, with social networks, these ties are persistent. "Persistent and pervasive," Hampton said. "They stay with you forever." The survey was conducted among 2,255 adults from Oct. 20 to Nov. 28, 2010. The margin of error is plus or minus 2.3 percentage points for the full sample.

The June 15 lunar eclipse will be visible in the Philippines on Thursday, June 16, 2011. The eclipse will start at 1:24 a.m. and end at 7 a.m. But if you don’t have a telescope and you want to really see it, look at the moon at around 2:45 to 3 a.m. And by 4:12 a.m., the lunar eclipse would be total.
Here’s a more detailed summary of the different phases of the lunar eclipse on June 16, 2011 (Philippines):
Here’s a more detailed summary of the different phases of the lunar eclipse on June 16, 2011 (Philippines):
* Penumbral eclipse: starts at 1:24 AM
* Partial eclipse: starts at 2:22 AM
* Greatest eclipse: 4:12 AM
* Partial eclipse: ends at 6:02 AM
* Penumbral eclipse: ends at 7:00 AM
* Partial eclipse: starts at 2:22 AM
* Greatest eclipse: 4:12 AM
* Partial eclipse: ends at 6:02 AM
* Penumbral eclipse: ends at 7:00 AM
The first lunar eclipse of 2011 occurs at the Moon's ascending node in southern Ophiuchus about 7° west of the Lagoon Nebula (M8). The Moon passes deeply through Earth's umbral shadow during this rather long event. The total phase itself lasts 100 minutes. The last eclipse to exceed this duration was in July 2000. The Moon's contact times with Earth's umbral and penumbral shadows are listed below.
Penumbral Eclipse Begins: 17:24:34 UT
Partial Eclipse Begins: 18:22:56 UT
Total Eclipse Begins: 19:22:30 UT
Greatest Eclipse: 20:12:37 UT
Total Eclipse Ends: 21:02:42 UT
Partial Eclipse Ends: 22:02:15 UT
Penumbral Eclipse Ends: 23:00:45 UT
Partial Eclipse Begins: 18:22:56 UT
Total Eclipse Begins: 19:22:30 UT
Greatest Eclipse: 20:12:37 UT
Total Eclipse Ends: 21:02:42 UT
Partial Eclipse Ends: 22:02:15 UT
Penumbral Eclipse Ends: 23:00:45 UT
At the instant of greatest eclipse the umbral eclipse magnitude will reach 1.6998 as the Moon's centre passes within 5.3 arc-minutes of the shadow axis. The Moon's southern limb will lay 54.2 arc-minutes from the edge of the umbra while the northern limb will lay 22.3 arc-minutes from the umbra's edge.
Thus, the northern regions of the Moon will probably appear brighter than the southern regions that lie deeper in the shadow. Since the Moon samples a large range of umbral depths during totality, its appearance will change dramatically with time. It is difficult to predict the exact brightness distribution in the umbra so observers are encouraged to estimate the Danjon value at different times during totality.

An interesting article came out 1/20/11 on the Malaya Business Insight website about a proposed P150 Jose Rizal bill to celebrate his 150th birthday.
There is a proposal submitted to the Governor of the Banko Sentral ng Pilipinas for a 150-peso bill carrying the portrait of Jose Rizal as the central feature in the front portion. The intent is to promote the 150th birth anniversary of the Philippine national hero.
The photo above has some interesting elements like the Angono Petroglyphs featuring the theory of Baybayin numerals. Also featured is the Taklobo and “Republika ng Pilipinas” in modified/modern Baybayin.

Can Osmeña Boulevard be declared car-free every Sunday?
That’s what ecology advocates asked Cebu City officials after last Sunday’s “Road Revolution” left the boulevard free for pedestrians in order to advocate a redesign of public roads to add bicycle lanes and wide sidewalks, and to shift to the use of environment-friendly transportation.
Vice Mayor Joy Augustus Young said they will study the proposal of environmental lawyer Antonio Oposa Jr. “Despite the complaints of the motorists, it went well but to close it every Sunday is a different matter. We have to study that,” Young said.
He said if ever the plan is approved, the road would be closed only after 4 p.m. until midnight on Sundays. “Based on last Sunday’s experience, the influx of people happens after 4 p.m. when the sun is about to set,” the vice mayor said.
Oposa, a Ramon Magsaysay awardee for his environment crusade, and several supporters yesterday submitted to the Cebu City Council a petition to overhaul the city’s road use system to prioritize pedestrians and bicycle riders. Their proposal calls for devoting 30 percent of the road for sidewalks, 30 percent for bicycle lanes, 30 percent for mass transport that is “Filipino-made” and pollution-free, and 10 percent for a greenbelt of gardens and trees.
Oposa later appeared in a Provincial Board (PB) session to promote the establishment of a bamboo railway system and solar energy “train.” Oposa gathered 20,000 signatures for the petition that seeks a pollution-free transportation system in Cebu. “Our mode of transportation is totally wrong. We need to change it,” Oposa said in last Sunday’s opening program of the Road Revolution, which was timed for Independence Day.

What do a poet, general, and woman warrior have in common, other than being the pride of the Philippines? The revolutionaries, both peaceful and fierce, are part of the sponsorship roster for Kalayaan 2011, the 113th Philippine Independence Day celebration set for June 11th.
Kalayaan 2011 sponsors will memorialize José Protacio Mercado Rizal Alonso y Realonda, Emilio Aguinaldo y Famy, and Maria Josefa Gabriela Cariño Silang, three of the Philippines’ top nationalists. Dr. Jose Rizal, Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo and Mrs. Diego Silang embody the cry for anti-colonialist freedom.
Revolutionary Diego Silang and his wife Josefa, known as the “Joan of Arc of Ilocandia,” began an insurgent movement against Spain in the 1700s. Rizal’s writing, civic organizing and firing-squad execution in the late 1800s rallied those of the Katipunan Movement, led by Aguinaldo, to continue to fight for independence.
This year is the sesquicentennial anniversary of Dr.Jose Rizal’s 150th birthday. In his honor, the theme of Kalayaan 2011 is “Rizal: Haligi ng Bayan” or “Rizal: Pillar of the Nation.”

AS A testament to the growing number of bikers in Cebu, more than 100 participants are expected to join the folding bike competition of the Road Revolution, as part of the Independence Day celebration this Sunday at 10 a.m. in front of the Cebu Doctor’s University Hospital (CDUH) at Osmeña Blvd.
The road from Capitol to Plaza Independencia will be closed the whole day. The event is spearheaded by the Tindak Bisdak Cebu Folding Society. After the starting gun, the participants, who are 20 meters away will run towards their folded bikes and race the 600-meter distance from CDUH towards Fuente Osmeña.
They will have four divisions based on the sizes of the bikes. The event is part of Road Revoltion Philippines’ campaign for sidewalks, bike lanes and collective transportation system in Cebu. Aside from cycling, there will also be a freedom walk from Cebu Provincial Capitol to the Plaza Independencia, a running event and a skating competition.
“We are tired of the chaos, accidents, air pollution and injustice that prevails in the road system of the Philippines... We, the Filipino People, hereby initiate this petition to promulgate a local ordinance to reform the existing road system. We ask that an ordinance be passed to convert all existing roads within our city to favor people instead of favoring motor vehicles. After all, towns and cities were made for people, not for motor vehicles,” the group said in a petition at roadrevolution.ph.

A PEOPLE’S PETITION TO REFORM THE ROAD SYSTEM
“Those who have less in wheels must have more in road.”[1]
We, Children and Registered Voters of the City of Cebu, hereby declare that that we are tired of the chaos, accidents, air pollution and injustice that prevails in the road system of the Philippines. The bias of the present road system for individualized motorized vehicles has caused and will continue to cause tremendous road congestion, serious air pollution, deadly accidents, waste of space, fuel, water, and public space for the convenience of a few, at a great cost to all.
It is time to turn this around.
For this purpose, we, the Filipino People, hereby initiate this Petition to promulgate a local ordinance to reform the existing road system. We ask that an ordinance be passed to convert all existing roads within our City to favor people instead of favoring motor vehicles. After all, towns and cities were made for people, not for motor vehicles.
For this purpose, we respectfully request that the existing roads be divided longitudinally into four parts: All-weather side-walks and pathways — 30%; Bicycle lanes — 30%; Filipino-made collective and non-pollutive transportation systems — 30%; Greenbelts for edible gardens — 10%.
An efficient and effective transportation system will provide the constituents of our good City with a healthy and orderly alternative to the existing transportation system.
To support this initiative for local legislation, we hereby submit to your good Office the signatures of the voters of our good City pursuant to Law. We are joined by our children and grandchildren — many of whom will soon be of voting age – who are the most vulnerable to the dangerous conditions of the roads and to the worsening quality of the Air.
This People’s Petition is hereby submitted pursuant to Sec. 120 to 127 of the Local Government Code (Republic Act 7160).[2] Further, Executive Order 712 (2008)[3] and Executive Order 774 (2008)[4] call for the reformation of the road system to favor non-motorized, environment-friendly, and collective transportation systems.
Thank you in anticipation of your kind and expeditious action on the matter within the period provided by Law.[5] We look forward to working with you, your planners, and legislators to flesh out the details of our proposal. We trust that this letter finds you in good health and spirits.

The profession of nursing has been around for centuries, but the development of nursing as a calling truly took off in the 19th Century with the work of Florence Nightingale. Nightingale saw the need to bring professionalism to nursing. She was instrumental in developing training the nurses need as well as the uniform which helped give them a professional look. Part of the uniform that was accepted was the nurse’s cap.
The nurse’s cap was designed after a nurse’s habit, as a way to pay homage to the work of nuns as the earliest nurses. The cap's original use of the nurse’s cap was to keep a female nurse's hair neatly in place and present a professional appearance. Over the course of time the nurse’s cap evolved into two styles. One is a long nurse’s cap which covers most of the nurse’s head and the other is a short nurse’s cap which sits on top of the head.
The nurse’s cap has also had a ceremonial purpose. For many years the nurse’s cap was used in a ceremony for new nurses. The capping ceremony was instituted as a way to present a nurses cap to students who have completed school work prior to beginning hospital training.
The nurse’s cap has undergone several changes throughout the years. The origin of the cap was the habit that nuns wore. Over the years, the nurse’s cap has evolved from a large cap, which virtually covered the entire head of a nurse to the current version which is just a small cap which sits on top of the nurses head.

The earliest badges were given to members of the Knights of the Order of the Hospital of St. John the Baptist, a religious order who tended to the ill and wounded Crusaders in the 12th Century.
The tradition of the nursing pin and the ceremonial pinning we know today, actually originated in the 1860's at the Nightingale School of Nursing at St. Thomas Hospital in London.
Having been recently awarded The Red Cross of St. George for her selfless service to the injured and dying in the Crimean War, Florence chose to extend this honor to her most outstanding graduate nurses by presenting each of them with a medal for excellence.
The Wolverton Royal Hospital in England initiated the tradition of presenting all graduates with a badge. The first pin was presented to the graduating class of 1880 at the Bellevue Hospital of Nursing in New York City.

When the nursing pinning ceremony was first initiated in the 1860's, the lamp was a symbol of the care and devotion the nurse administers to the sick and injured in the practice of nursing. After nurses were pinned, Nightingale would light a lamp and pass the flame to each nurse as they say the Nightingale's Pledge.
Original Nightingale Pledge
"I solemnly pledge myself before God and in the presence of this assembly:
To pass my life in purity and to practice my profession faithfully;
I will abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous and will not take
or knowingly administer any harmful drug;
I will do all in my power to maintain and elevate the standard of my profession
and will hold in confidence all personal matters committed to my keeping and all
family affairs coming to my knowledge in the practice of my calling;
With loyalty will I endeavor to aid the physician in his work and devote myself
to the welfare of those committed to my care."

"Lord, You are the preserver of men, and the keeper of our lives. We commit ourselves to Your perfect care on the days that awaits us. We pray for a safe and auspicious journey. Give Your angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. Let no evil befall us, nor any harm come to our home that we leave behind. Although we are uncertain of what the days may bring, may we be prepared for any event or delay, and greet such with patience and understanding. Bless us oh Lord, that we may complete our day safely and successfully under Your ever watchful care... AMEN."
The road to success is not straight
There is a curve called Failure,
a loop called confusion,
speed bumps called Friends,
red lights called Enemies, and
caution lights called Family
But if you have a spare called Determination,
an engine called Perseverance,
insurance called Faith, and
a driver called Jesus,
you will make it to a place called Success!

Live believing
Dreams are for weaving

Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I
Souls in the wind
Must learn how to bend
Seek out a star
Hold on to the end
Valley, mountain
There is a fountain
Washes our tears all away
Words are swaying
Someone is praying
Please let us come home to stay
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and I
When we are out there in the dark
We'll dream about the sun
In the dark we'll feel the light
Warm our hearts, everyone

Life is a lot of work. What is it that gives us the strength to continue when we are tired and burned out? Sometimes an inspirational idea can help us renew ourselves and be filled with strength to fulfill our life's purpose.
Inspiration comes in many forms. However, the root of all inspiration is the idea that our lives are meaningful. Inspiration is knowing that what I do matters deeply to the universe.
When you have the feeling that your actions are meaningful, you will become filled with strength and vigor to fulfill your life's purpose.

The graduate nurses of University of Cebu (Banilad) College of Nursing, University of Cebu (Lapu-lapu Mandaue) College of Nursing, and sister school College of Technological Sciences (CTS) College of Nursing, who are on a closely-guarded Intensive In-House Review session in Seminaryo Mayor and Seminary College had the privilege of being lectured by Board of Nursing Marco Antonio Sto. Tomas on the Test Framework of the Philippine Nurses Licensure Examination.
It is hoped that the very privileged encounter will help the graduate nurses better prepare for the upcoming licensure examination this coming July 2 and 3, 2011.

Followers and readers are asking if June 13, 2011 will be declared a holiday in the Philippines. Previously, during the Arroyo administration, Filipinos are used to long weekends because holidays are being moved on a Friday or a Monday, depending on which day the actual holiday falls.
However, during the Aquino presidency, the Filipinos started to bid goodbye for long weekends, except if a holiday actually falls on a Friday or a Monday. In previous instances like the May 1, 2011 Labor Day holiday which fell on a Sunday, the Filipinos hoped for a long weekend – that the holiday be moved on a Monday, May 2. But it did not happen.
Given the case as above, it will not be of remote possibility that the June 12, 2011, which will be the 113th Celebration of Philippine Independence Day, falling on a Sunday will be celebrated as is. But we still has to wait for any proclamation from Malacanang Palace. We do hope so that it will be moved on the 13th. Who does not love long weekends, right?
