Independence Day, 2008 (110 years)

On the 110th year of Philippine Independence, all roads lead to - Kawit, Cavite ... the City of Manila ... Malolos, Bulacan
... Pampanga ... Nueva Ecija ... Tarlac ... Laguna ... AND Batangas provinces! ;-)

"... its eight rays (of the sun on the National flag) symbolizes the eight provinces (as listed above) ... which were declared in a state of war
almost as soon as the first revolutionary movement was initiated ..." (Act of Proclamation of Philippine Independence, 12 June 1898, Kawit, Cavite)

To get you even MORE in a nationalistic mood, here is the broadcast media adaptation of the Philippine National Anthem 'Lupang Hinirang'
(read: "Chosen Land") to commemorate the Philippine Centennial 'Kalayaan' (freedom) theme (1898-1998) as submitted by MonBC in YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRy18bp4njQ .
