The wit, faith and resilience of our ancestors are abounding lessons in life,\u201d she said. The Consulate team also used the occasion to spread information on the Consulate\u2019s various services and projects.<\/p><p>The virtual event was staged in lieu of what was supposed to be a public gathering and flag-raising at Melbourne\u2019s famous Federation Square, which was cancelled due to prevailing COVID-19 restrictions imposed by the Victoria state government.<\/p><p>Consistent with tradition, however, eight Philippine flags were hoisted at the square on the eve on June 12, to honor the Filipino nation in the city. The flags drew crowds of Filipino pedestrians and motorists, many of whom stopped to take photographs.<\/p><p>The Consul General also hosted a simple lunch for the Consulate team, who rendered consular service in the afternoon on the Philippine holiday to serve clients whose appointments were cancelled due to the two-week snap lockdown.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a0b4925 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a0b4925\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-03.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-7695\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-03.jpg 960w, https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-03-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-03-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The officers and staff of the Philippine Consulate General in Melbourne.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ed9b54 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6ed9b54\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-04.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-7696\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-04.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-04-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/melbournepcg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/123rd-anniversary-of-Philippine-independence-04-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Eight Philippine flags flying in Melbourne\u2019s Federation Square to mark Philippine independence.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dd52505 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dd52505\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>On the same day, a documentary produced by the Department of Foreign Affairs entitled, \u201cLessons for a Changed World: The Legacy of the Indigenous People of the Philippines\u201d was also shared in the official Facebook account of the Consulate.<\/p><p>The documentary cast the limelight on outstanding members of Filipino indigenous communities and highlighted their contributions to the mainstream Filipino and world cultures.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">-END-<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PR-019-2021 As flags fly at iconic Federation Square PH Consulate joins the Filipino communityin online Independence Day rites The Philippine Consulate in Melbourne joined the Filipino community of Victoria, Australia, in an online event 12 June to celebrate the 123rd anniversary of Philippine independence.
