XIAMEN 04 July 2018 – Consul General Julius Caesar A. Flores led the flag-raising ceremony at the Philippine Consulate General’s grounds on 11 June 2018, as part of its commemoration of the 120th anniversary of the proclamation of Philippine independence with the theme “Pagbabagong Ipinaglaban, Alay sa Masaganang Kinabukasan”.

In his message, Consul General Flores underscored that with this year’s Independence Day theme, the event was an opportunity for the Filipinos in Fujian Province in China to renew their spirit of patriotism, and called on the Filipinos to be united and work together with the aim of contributing to the Philippine Government’s thrusts towards national development and progress.
