President Marcos yesterday challenged Filipinos, especially the youth, to uphold Lapu-Lapu’s patriotism and rise against modern-day oppressors.
MANILA, Philippines —
“The challenge now for all, especially the youth, is to continue embracing ideals and the wealth of our heritage as we realize a ‘Bagong Pilipinas’ that is built on the foundations of the liberty and freedom that he and all our other heroes fought hard for,” the President said. On April 27, 1521, Lapu-Lapu, then Mactan’s chieftain, and his men defeated Spanish forces led by Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan. Lapu-Lapu killed Magellan during the battle, according to history books.
“Even before this line was written in Lupang Hinirang, this was already fulfilled by the people of Cebu,” he said.
