00:00 Our journey to progress requires not only unity and social cohesion amongst our people.
00:06 It is also imperative that our nation remains intact and inviolable, our sovereignty preserved.
00:13 We will protect our sovereign rights and preserve our territorial integrity in defense of a
00:19 rules-based international order.
00:23 With our national interests paramount, we will always pursue constant dialogue and diplomatic
00:33 approaches to the resolution of any issue that may arise.
00:39 So the initial results of our efforts inspire confidence that has continued to be relentless
00:45 in our aspiration of peace and progress.
00:48 This has not been the work of a single person, neither a single branch of government, nor
00:54 even the whole government acting alone.
00:57 This is the collective synergy achieved by all Filipinos working together.
01:02 It took a whole-of-nation effort to achieve this immediate recovery from our pandemic
01:06 slump.
01:08 Unity was what made us rise once more.
