00:00 In celebration of his father's 106th birthday,
00:04 President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. also witnessed
00:07 the launching of Rice Paddy Art in Ilocos Norte.
00:11 It was the place where President Marcos Jr.
00:14 and the slogan of the new Philippines were erected.
00:16 Ken and Paciente in the details.
00:18 After the mass in Immaculate Conception Parish in Batac City,
00:26 President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. was blessed with flowers
00:30 in his father's house.
00:32 It was the 106th birthday of former President Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr.
00:37 For the peace and order that he fought and stood for,
00:39 the development that he inspired our own citizens to build,
00:43 and the dreams that he left in the hearts of many,
00:46 he remains a true Filipino and Ilocano icon
00:50 whose exceptional mind matched the nation-loving spirit
00:54 that he possessed and that he demonstrated.
00:58 So as we remember and pay tribute to his memory,
01:01 let this gathering serve as a testament
01:04 to the unwavering pursuit of unity
01:07 that he so passionately espoused for our people.
01:10 But according to the President,
01:12 there is no need for a grand celebration
01:14 to give glory to his father.
01:16 He said, it is better to give life, especially to the youth,
01:20 to the legacy left by the former President.
01:23 Let us act in our own small and unique ways
01:27 to support government, to support our people,
01:30 and all the initiatives and programs,
01:32 and continue to instill in every Filipino
01:36 the sense of ownership and accountability
01:38 in building our great nation.
01:41 The Philippines is ours to love,
01:44 and the path to a new Philippines,
01:46 a more equitable, sustainable, and resilient one,
01:50 is ours to make.
01:51 The President also witnessed the launch of RISE PadiArt
01:54 at Mariano Marcos State University.
01:57 His image and slogan, "Bagong Pilipinas," is on display.
02:01 According to MMSU and PhilRISE,
02:03 it is a sign of their support for the current administration's program,
02:07 especially in the use of food security
02:10 and strengthening the agricultural sector in the country.
02:13 Your presence today is especially inspiring
02:18 as it signifies the kind of collaboration needed
02:23 from various sectors.
02:26 The President also emphasized the importance of technology
02:28 in the agricultural sector,
02:30 especially as it is a major help in the production
02:33 and supply of agricultural products.
02:35 There's a necessary work to be done
02:38 for us to be able to, as I say,
02:40 take the new technology from the laboratory
02:44 to the rice field.
02:45 And that is where we now come in.
02:50 And when I say "we,"
02:51 I say "we" in terms of the Department of Agriculture.
02:55 That is what the DA will do now,
02:58 which will get the best technology, especially now.
03:02 Technology has become so important.
03:03 The new technologies have become so important
03:05 because of climate change.
03:07 A lot is changing.
03:09 A lot needs to be changed.
03:11 We need to study
03:12 so that we can make sure
03:15 that we have a stable source of supply
03:21 and that that supply is affordable to ordinary Filipinos.
03:24 The Executive Board also emphasized
03:27 that farmers should not be left behind
03:29 in the government's efforts
03:31 to strengthen the agricultural sector.
03:34 Kenneth Paciente,
03:35 for the Morning Show ng Bayan,
03:37 Rice and Shine, Philippines.
