President Bongbong Marcos has issued a memorandum for all government agencies, local government units (LGUs), and educational institutions to recite the “Bagong Pilipinas” hymn after flag ceremonies.
“To further instill the principles of the Bagong Pilipinas brand of governance and leadership among Filipinos, all national government agencies and instrumentalities, including GOCCs and educational institutions, such as SUCs (state universities and colleges), are hereby directed, and LGUs are hereby encouraged, to integrate the recital of the Bagong Pilipinas Hymn and Pledge in the conduct of weekly flag ceremonies, subject to existing laws, rules and regulations,” Memorandum Circular No. 52 reads.
Under the memorandum, Marcos also tasked the Presidential Communications Office to disseminate the message of the Bagong Pilipinas Hymn and Pledge to all government offices and the public.
National government agencies, on the other hand, are mandated to ensure that the Bagong Pilipinas Hymn and Pledge are properly disseminated within their respective institutions and offices.
“Bagong Pilipinas” is the current brand of leadership of the Marcos administration.
