SYMBOL & SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PHILIPPINE FLAG

It is the flag that symbolizes freedom of ones sovereignty therefore we have to revere on it.

We must never bring the flag down every Friday afternoons and bring it back on Monday mornings because freedom is present and also sovereignty of the country is existing even after flag is brought down on Fridays and early mornings of Mondays.

Freedom and sovereignty of the country is 24 hours a day and 365days every year and all the years.

The flag must brought down immediately only when it is already torn, faded and tattered and change with a new one with special rites that follows.

The cost of flag is not the most essential thing to consider why we are putting it up the pole but it is because of our patriotism and loyalty to our country basing on the fact that many Filipinos sited their blood for flag.
