At sunset today, as the nation celebrates Bonifacio Day, a Philippine flag of epic proportions will emerge from the darkness to light up the historic grounds of Luneta Park. The unveiling of the giant image is expected to send a message of hope and solidarity to a world still reeling from the Covid pandemic.
The flag’s outlines will be defined by over 3,000 sustainable lamps individually assembled by volunteers from all over the country who have united for the project. “This is our tribute to heroism on a global scale, a tribute to all the Filipino frontliners worldwide who have fought to contain the pandemic. It is a profound expression of solidarity with those who have risked life and limb to be in the frontlines of the fight,” said Illac Diaz, Founder of Liter of Light and organizer of the event
