In celebration of National Heroes Day, President Rodrigo Duterte on Monday honored all the healthcare workers who are on the frontlines of battling the coronavirus disease.
“I join the entire nation as we celebrate this year’s National Heroes’ Day. Today we honor not only the valor of our forebears who fought for the motherland’s freedom but also the heroism of those who risk their lives fighting a different kind of enemy,” Duterte said in his message aired over PTV-4.
“Present-day challenges posed by the current public health crisis have given rise to modern-day heroes, the country’s Filipino frontliners, here and abroad who are battling the Covid-19 pandemic,” he said.
Duterte also called on the public to draw inspiration from the bravery of Filipino heroes to secure a future for themselves.
“I hope that the bravery of our Filipino heroes, past and present, will inspire us all to face and overcome evil in the most formidable situations. Together, let us become everyday heroes as we pursue a better future for everyone. Mabuhay ang bayaning Pilipino,” he concluded.
