Vice President Sara Duterte called on Filipinos to march on and aim for a better life in 2023.
“With our deep faith in the Almighty and humble determination to aim higher, let us look forward to a more prosperous 2023 filled with dynamic opportunities for inclusive and lasting growth where no one is left behind,” the Vice President said in her New Year’s message.
Duterte said 2023 marks a new and promising season of growth for every Filipino across diverse sectors and segments of society.
“Let us unwaveringly embody our collective resolve and fortitude to begin anew amid the difficulties this past year may have brought our social, economic, and civic pursuits,” she said.
Duterte added that the country’s enduring spirit of Bayanihan and unshakeable resiliency “remain the Filipinos guideposts to continue upholding reforms, policies, and programs for the improved welfare of people in the education sector, uniformed services, civilian personnel, frontline duty, and in the most vulnerable communities.”
“I am hopeful that our tireless nation-building efforts will redound to the success of our undertakings in governance, the business arena, the agricultural sector, and in other viable industries so that we can conduct our development efforts with utmost regard to the greater good of the entire nation,” she said.
