Marcos urges Filipinos to build a kind and united country

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Sunday urged Filipinos to create a compassionate and united nation as the Christian world celebrates Easter.

In his message, Marcos said Filipinos should "carry the light of Easter" in their everyday lives "not only in words, but in action."

“As a people known for our resilience and deep faith, let us carry the light of Easter into our daily lives not only in words, but in action. Let us always choose compassion over indifference, generosity over self-interest, and unity over division. For in every act of kindness, in every hand extended to help, we become instruments of renewal for our entire nation,” he said.

He called on Filipinos "to rise with a renewed purpose, unyielding hope, and a deep sense of responsibility for one another."

“Let us build a nation where kindness is instinct and unity is our strength. For when we stand together guided by faith, bound by love of country, and driven by a shared vision, there is no challenge we cannot overcome,” he added.  —VBL, GMA News
