WELCOME REMARKS

Umalohokan Para sa Kaalaman, Kalikasan at Kinabukasan

April 13, 2025

Simbayanan ni Maria Community Foundation, Taguig City

Magandang araw sa inyong lahat!

Today is not just an ordinary gathering. This is a convergence of minds and hearts—of changemakers, truth-seekers, and guardians of our environment and future.

Welcome to Umalohokan Para sa Kaalaman, Kalikasan at Kinabukasan—isang pagtitipon na bumabalik sa diwa ng ating mga ninunong Umalohokan—ang mga tagapagbalita ng bayan, ang mga boses ng katotohanan noong panahon na wala pang internet, wala pang media—pero may tapang, may malasakit, at may layunin.

Today, we take up that torch.

We become the new Umalohokan—those who will not stay silent in the face of misinformation, ecological destruction, and apathy.

We rise with knowledge. We act with purpose. And we move together—as one voice, one community, one future.

This workshop is not just about listening and learning. It's about igniting something powerful—paninindigan, pakikilahok, at pagbabago.

Ngayong araw, let us allow our stories to spark action. Let our discussions lead to transformation. Let our unity give birth to a movement.

Because if not now—kailan pa?

If not us—sino pa?

So speak. Share. Be brave.

Dahil ang boses mo ay mahalaga.

Ang tinig mo ay may saysay.

At ang kwento mo ay pwedeng maging simula ng pagbabago.

Welcome, my fellow Umalohokan.

Let’s make this day unforgettable. Let’s make this day revolutionary.

Maraming salamat, at mabuhay tayong lahat!
