Ruby Tuesday - The Philippine Flag

We were walking down while roaming around along the sidewalk of Opol, Misamis Oriental when we saw these Philippine Flags waving around the town.


It is because we are celebrating Independence Day which is a  national holiday observed every June 12, in commemorating the Philippine Declaration of Independence from Spain on June 12, 1898. It is the National Day of the Philippines.

President Diosdado Macapagal signed into law Republic Act No. 4166 designating June 12 as the country's Independence Day. June 12 had previously been observed as Flag Day.

This is my historical entry for Ruby Tuesday
