Today, we honor one of the greatest heroes of our nation’s history—Andrés Bonifacio, the “Father of the Philippine Revolution.” A symbol of bravery and patriotism, Bonifacio’s unwavering determination to fight for freedom continues to inspire generations of Filipinos.

The University of the Cordilleras – College of Hospitality and Tourism Management (UC-CHTM) stands in solidarity with the nation in commemorating this significant day. As future leaders and professionals in the hospitality and tourism industry, let us draw inspiration from Bonifacio’s values of courage, perseverance, and dedication to the greater good.

This Bonifacio Day, may we reflect on the sacrifices of our heroes and renew our commitment to nation-building. Just as Bonifacio dreamed of a free and united Philippines, let us work together to uphold the ideals of justice, unity, and progress in every aspect of our lives.

Let us also remember that patriotism begins in small acts of service—whether in our classrooms, our communities, or in the industry we aim to excel in. As we commemorate this day, let us be reminded to carry the same passion and love for country in everything we do.

Mabuhay ang alaala ni Gat Andres Bonifacio! Mabuhay ang ating lahing Pilipino!
