The holidays are fast approaching, and the spirit of festivities and thanksgiving is once again spreading throughout the community. I wish to take this opportunity to give my sincerest well-wishes for our kababayan here in Hong Kong as they celebrate these joyous occasions.
It is often during these times that you can see the Filipino spirit of merrymaking and camaraderie. It is the perfect season to give thanks for the blessings that we have received throughout the year, to bond with our fellows who have shared in our experiences, and to celebrate with our families both here and in the Philippines.
The last few years have undoubtedly been challenging for us here in Hong Kong, yet I am proud to say that our Filipino community has remained strong and persevered through it all. And now, with the advances of modern medicine and the gradual easing of pandemic restrictions, we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Throughout the pandemic, our hardworking men and women at the Consulate General of the Philippines have delivered consular services and assistance to nationals. As with our kababayan, we have continued providing consular services, despite the challenges brought about by COVID-19.
The flourishing of our community even through adversity is likewise shown in the recent International Ethnic Cultural Presentations. I wish to extend our sincerest thanks to the Filipino community for showcasing the traditional dances of Sakuting and Sayaw sa Cuyo to international audiences.
From the Philippine Consulate family to yours, we wish you all happy holidays. Let us maintain our warm bonds and continue our cooperation through the next year. On our part, we reaffirm our commitment to providing quality, responsive, and effective public services for our Filipino community in Hong Kong.
Maligayang Pasko at Manigong Bagong Taon!
