In his New Year message, Marcos, whose campaign during the 2022 elections centered on the call for unity, said each Filipino is a “catalyst” for the country’s “meaningful social transformation.”

“As we welcome 2024 with great optimism, I call upon every Filipino from every corner of the world to contribute to the future of our beloved motherland. Let us embody the spirit of solidarity through acts of kindness, volunteerism and compassion, knowing that each of us is a catalyst for our country’s meaningful social transformation,” the President said.

Marcos said every new beginning allows Filipinos to reflect on what they have accomplished, to move forward with the lessons they have learned, and to reinforce the unity they have forged as a people.

“As a nation, we bid farewell to the challenges and triumphs of the past year and embrace a new dawn of opportunity and hope that heralds another fresh start for all,” the Chief Executive said.

“Truly, I am delighted to begin this new year with you as we strengthen our bonds and charter a new roadmap for tomorrow. Let the dream of a revitalized Philippines – a Bagong Pilipinas – guide our every endeavor as we bring forth peace, progress, and prosperity for all,” he added.
