OLONGAPO REMEMBERS LIBERATION DAY
The City of Olongapo is commemorating its Liberation Day with the theme “Kalayaang Ipinaglaban, Dapat na Ingatan” on May 29, 2009, in honor of the patriotism and heroism of the Filipino War Veterans who fought the Japanese invaders in World War II.
Vice Mayor Cynthia Cajudo again leads this year’s celebration with the Veterans Federation of the Philippines - Sons and Daughters Association, Inc.
Descendants off both living and deceased veterans are expected to attend the commemoration.
“It is but fitting that we remember the valor and bravery of our war veterans in Olongapo. Let us continue enjoying the freedom they once won and may we continue fighting to preserve and defend it,” Mayor James “Bong” Gordon, Jr. said in connection with the celebration.
Corollary to the celebration, the City Government, through the initiative of Mayor Gordon scheduled a Medical-Dental Mission on May 30, 2009, 8:00 am to 12:00 noon at Barangay Sta. Rita.
