"As sons and daughters, we should be eternally grateful to our fathers and every person who played paternal roles to us — people whose presence made our lives more meaningful."

Ito ang pahayag ni Vice President Sara Duterte sa pagdiriwang ng Father's Day nitong Linggo, Hunyo 18.

Sa kaniyang mensahe, sinabi ni Duterte na ang Father’s Day ay ang araw para parangalan at ipagdiwang ang lahat ng mga ama na nagdadala umano ng lakas, responsibilidad, at pagsusumikap para sa kanilang pamilya.

“A father's wisdom, guidance, and support are vital sources of our strength and values, helping us navigate life and overcome the challenges we face as individuals, as a family, and as a community,” ani Duterte.

Sinabi rin ni Duterte na ang sakripisyo ng mga ama ay nagsisilbing pundasyon ng bawat tahanan.

“They are our role models of determination, discipline, and dedication to building a secure future,” ani Duterte.

“Even as children grow into adults, a responsible father continues to play a significant part in their lives — giving them guidance, inspiration, and the fundamental qualities of a person building a reliable, dependable, and strong family,” saad pa niya.
