"Never forget the roots of your family"

A little serious of our mind:

 Try to imagine, that your grandchildren can´t speak with you in your language......

Learn your family the language of the roots, so your family - children can speak their language from childhood!

Learn your family the culture of the roots, so your family understand and respect the roots e.g. Mano Po!

1946 Philippine Proclamation of Independence

In 04 July 1946, US President Harry Truman through US High Commissioner to the Philippines Paul V. McNutt finally recognized independence of Philippine state. It ended almost forty years (since 1901) of American rule in the Philippines. Consequently, this recognition means that the United States' representative government Commonwealth of the Philippines has ended, which started in November of 1935. Prior to this event, however, the Filipinos conducted the last election under the Commonwealth, which elected Manuel Roxas as the president. After declaration of independence, Roxas established the Third Republic of the Philippines making him the first president of the said republic.
