🇵🇭 "Our Seas. Our Rights. Our Future." 🌊
BARANGAY ADVOCACY TEAM FOR WEST PHILIPPINE SEA!
A significant step towards strengthening patriotism and community awareness was taken as the Barangay Advocacy Team para sa West Philippine Sea was officially launched in the Municipality of San Fabian, Pangasinan.
Organized through the initiative of the The Charlie (Crusaders) Company, 71st Infantry (Kaibigan) Battalion, 7th Infantry Division, Philippine Army, the event was held at the San Fabian Public Auditorium. The activity gathered barangay representatives, local officials, and community leaders to discuss ways of expanding public awareness on the importance of protecting the West Philippine Sea and preserving the Philippines' sovereign maritime rights.
The forum emphasized that safeguarding our seas is not solely the responsibility of our uniformed personnel and government agencies—it is a shared responsibility of every Filipino. By promoting education, civic engagement, and national pride, communities become active partners in protecting our country's territorial integrity and preserving our marine resources for future generations.
Representing Barangay Binday in this meaningful gathering were Hon. John Michael Biado, GYGC President and SK Kagawad; Hon. Mark Vincent Salinas, SK Kagawad; Hon. Salvador Juguilon, Barangay Kagawad; Hon. Neva Prado, Barangay Secretary; together with the members of the Barangay Binday Council. Their participation reflects the barangay's commitment to promoting informed citizenship, community resilience, and love for our nation.
This gathering reminded us that patriotism is not measured only in words, but through our willingness to learn, participate, and stand together in protecting what rightfully belongs to the Filipino people. As citizens, we all have a role in preserving our nation's heritage, defending our rights, and ensuring that the next generation inherits a country whose seas remain protected and whose sovereignty remains respected.
Together, let us continue to foster awareness, strengthen unity, and inspire every Filipino to become a responsible steward of our nation's land and seas.
🇵🇭 Our Seas. Our Rights. Our Future.
