00:00Meanwhile, in Rizal Park, some activities and products are still being sold on Independence Day.
00:08And because it's a holiday, there are also a lot of people there.
00:12Mackie is here.
00:16Independence Day!
00:18And brave people!
00:19Labuyo 100!
00:2010, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
00:23On Independence Day, not only 100, but also 126 labuyo should be eaten within 15 minutes.
00:31There's no prize, but you'll be a member of Labuyo 100.
00:38In the middle, Kate was scolded.
00:40And when the labuyo were not eaten, she cried.
00:44Frustration.
00:45Because this is my second time.
00:47Why do you want to eat this many labuyo?
00:50I'm challenging myself.
00:53To do what?
00:54To be able to join this group.
00:56Why would you want to be a member of this group?
00:59Well, it's a really good community.
01:01It's an exclusive.
01:02It's bragging rights also.
01:04This is just one of the activities in Luneta Park today.
01:07There's also an obstacle course that needs to be completed within 3 minutes.
01:11And this was also suggested by Ali, who wants to try out for the national team.
01:15But on Independence Day, the obstacle course can also be a symbol.
01:19We know in history that we faced many obstacles.
01:22Like now, we are trying to express that we are fighting obstacles in the similar way that we fought before.
01:29In Tsiangge, Filipino works are famous, like the locally made soap.
01:33The Filipino works are reliable, ma'am.
01:35The quality of our soap is good, ma'am.
01:38There are also artworks made by persons deprived of liberty in Lipa, Batangas.
01:43Our fund that will be distributed here is for our deserving PDLs so that they can be free.
01:49But the most famous monument in Luneta today is Jose Rizal's monument.
01:53Many people take pictures of him, whether he's from the province or another country.
01:56But his hometown is Sumaludo.
01:59Rommel is only 13 years old when he migrated to America.
02:03He's my hero.
02:04He's our hero.
02:05So everybody should salute him, right?
02:07You know, just pay our respect because they sacrificed themselves.
02:11We are Filipinos.
02:12We have to be proud.
02:13Part of the celebration of freedom in 2024 is the Cineclassics in the Carino Grandstand.
02:18It's free to watch some films about Filipino heroes.
02:22For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido, for 24 Hours.
