Letter For The President


 Dear President Marcos,


I hope this letter finds you well. I write to you today with a heavy heart, as I reflect on the many challenges our country faces. It is not easy to lead a nation as diverse and complex as ours, and I want to acknowledge the immense responsibility that rests on your shoulders.


I can imagine the weight of expectations from so many sectors, the push and pull of different interests, and the desire to create meaningful change in the face of adversity. In light of this, I feel compelled to share some of my thoughts and concerns, not out of criticism, but in the spirit of collaboration and hope for a better future for all Filipinos.

 Reflection on 2024 National Children's Month, Climate Change and Resiliency, Indigenous Peoples Month, and Elpidio Quirino's Legacy National Children's Month (2024)            This year's observance of National Children's Month reminds us of the critical role that children play in shaping our future. As we reflect on the theme, it is clear that the world’s most vulnerable—our children—are increasingly exposed to global crises like climate change, poverty, and inequality. In 2024, we recognize that protecting the rights of children is not just about providing for their basic needs but also about ensuring their future.
