We celebrate Independence Day as it is the day that marks the end of the Spaniards ruling over the Philippines. For more than 300 years, we Filipinos were treated s second class in their own country, and suffered from cruelty and injustice form the hands of the Spaniards.
Independence Day is annually celebrated on June 12, and is commonly called the "Araw ng Kalayaan". It is the anniversary of the declaration of Independence from the Spanish rule in 1989.
One of the most significant events in the Philippines is the "Araw ng Kalayaan". We celebrate it every 12th of June. Where we commemorate our forefathers for sacrificing and fighting for our freedom.
Nowadays, Filipinos are enjoying priceless liberties such as freedom of speech, freedom of expressions, freedom to choose belief and freedom to use social media where unlike before the Spanish regime, Filipinos today can say whatever they want to our government without fearing harm.
