“Sa modernisasyon at kaunlarang kinakaharap ng ating lalawigan, nais kong ipinta sa mga puso’t isip ng bawat Bulakenyo ang kahalagahan ng araw ng pagkakatatag ng Unang Republika ng Pilipinas. Ito ay araw ng pagdakila sa ating mga ninuno na inilaban ang demokrasya; ito ay araw ng pagkilala sa lalawigan bilang mahalagang bahagi ng kasaysayan,” ,” the governor said.
