Pres. Rodrigo Duterte PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte called for unity and charity in his message greeting Filipino Muslims Friday on the occasion of their Eid l’Fitr marking the end of the fasting month of Ramadan.
“This is an opportune time to reflect on the progress e have made to achieve long-lasting peace across the country, especially in Mindanao. May this revered festival inspire us all to foster greater unity amidst our differences in faith and culture. Together, let us engage in acts of charity as we steer our nation towards a more progressive and tolerant future,” Duterte said in his messge issued by Malacañang.
Duterte also said, “We collectively observe this event to praise Allah in thanksgiving for providing our nation the strength to endure the challenges of misguided ideologies, terrorism and violent extremis. I trust that the sacrifice of Muslim Filipinos during their month-long fasting has rekindled their faith and reawakened their sense of benevolence and empathy towards their fellowmen.”
“May love and understanding prevail over our land as we work hard for the genuine transformation of the Philippines for every Filipino,” Duterte added.
