Solution to war is not more war-FMJ
By Nidz Godino
“Valor is not solely about strength and resolve in face of adversity, but also about small acts of compassion, generosity and kindness that create meaningful ripples of positive change in our communities,” in his speech delivered at Mount Samat Shrine in Pilar, Bataan, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. hopes nations learned from painful lessons of World War II to attain and maintain peace.
“Solution to war is not more war,” and peace can only be achieved if collectively recognized by conflicting parties, lessons we learned are that solution to war is not more war, and that the solution to war is only peace… honorable peace arrived at by different parties involved and having hand and voice in achieving that peace, peace cannot be attained by one person, by one country alone…and that we have to bring together all parties involved… lessons that we hope to have learned, President Marcos said as the nation commemorated 83rd Araw ng Kagitingan.
Marcos, however, lamented many nations have yet to learn lessons from Second World War.
“We are little bit disappointed to see the world parts of the world, and many countries in the world have yet to learn that lesson…and we hope that peace will be brought to us soon,” he said.
In separate statement, Marcos called on Filipinos to follow example of World War II heroes by advancing causes that improve Filipinos’ lives.
He said through acts of genuine service and self-sacrifice to the nation, Filipinos can prove they are rightful heirs of their ancestors’ heroic legacy.
Marcos also ordered all concerned government agencies to speed up processing of benefits for members of uniformed services killed in action as he noted complaints that process was taking too long and is too complicated.
“I think that if we are to honor our fallen comrades, we must keep our promise to them and we always say that no matter what happens, we will take care of their families, we will not abandon them,” Marcos said.
For his part, Speaker Martin Romualdez said Araw ng Kagitingan is not only about looking back but also about honoring enduring spirit of service and sacrifice that continues to define Filipino people.
“Eighty-three years ago in Bataan, thousands of Filipinos stood their ground…they were tired… hungry. ..outnumbered…but they kept on fighting not because they knew they’d win, but because they couldn’t give up their dignity as Filipinos,” he said.
Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro Jr. said celebrating Araw ng Kagitingan also calls upon each Filipino to rise to challenge of nation building and to contribute to continued progress, peace and security of the country.
“In these uncertain times, may we draw strength from their veterans’ legacy and stand united in purpose and resolve,” he said.
Meanwhile, Bagong Alyansang Makabayan said Araw ng Kagitingan should serve as reminder to Filipinos to resist foreign military intervention as Bayan secretary general Raymond Palatino referred to “incessant meddling of United States in the Philippines’ internal affairs.”
Bayan, along with other progressive groups, attempted to stage rally in front of US embassy to protest Visiting Forces Agreement and Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement as well as Balikatan military exercises with American troops.
However, they were blocked by Manila Police District and instead held their program in front of Museo Pambata.
