Malacanang joins in the celebration of World
Teacher’s Day
October 5, 2014
Malacanang on Sunday joins in the celebration of World Teacher’s Day
and the National Teachers’ Month and calls for everyone to give thanks
to their former teachers.
“Nananawagan po ang ating kalihim ng Kagawaran ng Edukasyon, Bro. Armin Luistro, na lahat tayo ay magpasalamat sa kahit isang naging guro natin na nagbahagi ng mahalagang aral sa atin at tumulong sa paghubog ng ating pagkatao sa panahon ng ating kabataan. Ang panawagan po niya, “write, text, tweet, call”—sulatan, mag-text, mag-tweet, at tawagan natin ang kahit isa sa ating naging guro, at sabihin natin sa kanya: “Maraming salamat po, mahal na guro,” said Presidential Communication Operations Office Secretary Herminio Coloma, Jr., in a radio interview over dzRB Radyo ng Bayan.
Coloma noted that the Philippines had the longest celebration that honor teachers, as President Benigno Aquino III signed Proclamation No. 242.
“Sa buong mundo ang Pilipinas ang bansang naglaan ng pinakamahabang panahon sa pagdiriwang ng kadakilaan ng mga guro na ating kinikilala dahil sa kanilang mahalagang ambag sa paghubog ng kamalayan at katauhan ng ating mga kabataan at mamamayan,” said Coloma.
Under Proclamation No. 242, the National Teachers’ Month will be celebrated every year from September 5 to October 5.
The proclamation also states that “it is essential to revitalize the image of teaching as a vocation by increasing public awareness on the value of teachers in Philippine society and national development.”
Coloma added that the Aquino administration has almost doubled the budget for education.
“Sa taong ito, aabot sa mahigit 309-bilyong piso ang gugugulin ng pamahalaan para sa sektor ng edukasyon, kumpara sa P174-billion noong 2010 bilang bahagi ng patuloy na pagsisikap na mapaunlad nang lubos ang sektor ng edukasyon na siyang susi sa paglinang ng kakayahan ng mga mamamayan, alinsunod na rin sa paniniwala ni Pangulong Aquino na ang taumbayan ang pinakamahalagang yaman ng Pilipinas,” said Coloma.
