Here is the conclusion of the speech I gave at the graduation rites of St. Dominic College of Asia.
Sen. Edgardo Angara has called on today’s youth to build a strong middle class in a speech at the commencement exercises of the University of the Philippines (UP) in Diliman, Quezon City.
We can all be heroes in our own small way. In his valedictory address, Vincent Yu, one of this year’s 15 summa cum laude graduates from the University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman called on his peers to choose action over apathy to change lives and ultimately transform the country.
Everything was going right for 44-year-old Arturo Ong Jr. on Friday. He sat delightedly as friends and relatives dressed him in a crisp white shirt, a pair of black trousers and a white toga.
The lack of electricity after Typhoon “Pablo” brought down power lines in her community last December proved a blessing in disguise for 16-year-old Judy Ann Romano.
Jeneva Mendoza had to rush to the dressmaker. A sleeve of her toga got burned while she was ironing it, and it’s only three hours before the baccalaureate Mass.
The high school graduation of Candulawan National High School will continue as scheduled today even after a fire hit their school last Saturday afternoon.
There should be no repeat of the bloody Atimonan, Quezon, incident. President Aquino on Friday gave this marching order to the new graduates of the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) as he called on them to tread his policy of “tuwid na daan (straight path).”
President Aquino on Sunday confessed to graduating cadets of the Philippine Military Academy here that running the country, attended by countless problems like the still unresolved Sabah crisis, had caused him severe hair loss.
While some of his fellow Tausugs sailed to Sabah to “reclaim” the territory from Malaysia and rectify what they insist was a historical anomaly, Aiman Jumlani Kamlon silently etched his name in Philippine history.
SHAQUILLE Lyza Orillo had only a few days left to finish her requirements for graduation but last Sunday dawn’s fire at her home in barangay Sambag II changed all that.
A cadet from Davao del Sur has topped the graduating class of the Philippine Military Academy this year, PMA officials announced on Monday.
The Commission on Elections (Comelec) on Monday said it could not stop candidates from giving speeches at graduation ceremonies but that they should turn down these invitations as a matter of “delicadeza.”
