"Kalayaan, tagumpay ng Bayan", this year's theme for the 112th Philippine Independence Day celebration, aptly captures the essence of this year's commemoration of every Filipinos' much treasured freedom.

In honor of this historical moment, the University of Northeastern Philippines ' Center for Culture and the Arts ((UNEP-CCA) rendered a soul-warming interpretation of "Lupang Hinirang" through their dance and magnificent movements.

Atty. Remelisa Alfelor-Moraleda, UNEP President said that this day indeed marked the fulfilment of every sacrifice that our heroes have done, just to give this precious liberty to the next generations.

"On this day, our first President, Emilio Aguinaldo, proclaimed the freedom of every Filipino. That proclamation also symbolizes our sovereignty and the university would like to impart the importance of this celebration, especially to our students through our active participation in every endeavor related to it," Moraleda added.

Moraleda said that the historic journey of our heroes should not be put to waste.  "Let this serve as a reminder of how our great grandfathers had risked their lives just to put this glorious date in the map of our history."

After the morning event in Iriga City , the UNEP CCA also joined SM City Naga's celebration in the afternoon on the same date.  The group was invited to execute an interpretative dance depicting the joy and appreciation of the freedom that every Filipino now proudly savors.

It was in June 12, 1898 when President Emilio Aguinaldo hoisted the Philippine National Flag while our national anthem is being played. Since then, the day is being honored and celebrated annually as our way of saying thank you to our heroes who died for our freedom.

In her parting words, Mrs. Del Alfelor-Tibi, UNEP Executive Vice President, reiterated the significance of the event's celebration.  "Let us then be thankful that we have this day to celebrate. This is when we, Filipinos have broken the chains of slavery and walked as a freeman."
