OLONGAPO CITY CELEBRATES LIBERATION DAY

The City of Olongapo will celebrate its Liberation Day on Tuesday, May 27 in commemoration of the patriotism and heroism of Olongapeños who fought the Japanese invaders in World War II. The venue of the celebration scheduled at nine o’clock in the morning will be Rizal Triangle where the Veterans Marker stands.

Veterans Federation of the Philippines- Sons and Daughters Association, Inc. led by Vice Mayor Cynthia Cajudo is the lead organization in organizing the celebration.

This year’s program theme is “Kapayapaan Susi sa Maunlad Na Bayan”.

The said celebration will be graced by the sons and daughters of both living and deceased veterans.

“I am glad that we still pursue the commemoration of the heros of Olongapo. I believe that as citizens of Olongapo we could be heroes in our own little ways,” Mayor James “Bong” Gordon said in connection with the celebration.

Former Olongapo Mayor and now Senator Richard Gordon is expected to grace and deliver a message during the occasion.

Meanwhile, as part of the Liberation Day celebration, the City Government, through the initiative of Mayor Gordon is going to conduct a Medical-Dental Mission on May 31, 2008 at James Gordon Integrated School, New Kababae.

The said Medical-Dental Mission aims to benefit residents of Brgy. New Banicain, New Kababae, New Ilalim and West Tapinac. by PAO/melai
