【Celebrating Philippine Independence Day & Filipino Heritage Month】
This morning, the Advance Richmond team was proud to attend the 12th Philippine Flag Raising Ceremony at Richmond City Hall in celebration of Philippine Independence Day and Filipino Heritage Month.
It was wonderful to see community leaders, veterans, families, youth, and residents come together to celebrate the rich history, culture, and contributions of the Filipino Canadian community. Throughout the event, our candidates and team members had the opportunity to connect with residents, community leaders, and local organizations while celebrating one of Richmond’s most vibrant and active communities.
Advance Richmond is especially honoured to have the support and participation of respected Filipino community leaders Rod Belleza and Willy Sinconegue. Rod currently serves as a Richmond School Trustee, while Willy is a School Trustee candidate in this year’s election. Both have dedicated many years to serving local families, supporting education, and strengthening community connections.
Richmond’s strength comes from its diversity. We believe every community deserves to be heard, respected, and represented. By working together and celebrating our different cultures, we can continue building a safer, stronger, and more united Richmond.
Happy Philippine Independence Day and Filipino Heritage Month! ————————————————— 【慶祝菲律賓獨立日暨菲律賓文化傳承月】
今早，列治文前進聯盟（Advance Richmond）團隊很榮幸出席於列治文市政府廣場舉行的第12屆菲律賓國旗升旗典禮，共同慶祝菲律賓獨立日及菲律賓文化傳承月。
活動吸引了眾多社區領袖、退伍軍人、家庭及居民參與，大家齊聚一堂，共同慶祝菲裔加拿大社區的歷史、文化及對社會的貢獻。我們多位候選人及團隊成員亦藉此機會與居民、社區領袖及各團體代表交流，感受菲裔社區的活力與凝聚力。
列治文前進聯盟亦十分榮幸獲得菲裔社區領袖樂德誠（Rod Belleza）及辛康尼（Willy Sinconegue）的支持與參與。樂德誠現任列治文學務委員，辛康尼則為本屆學務委員候選人。多年來，兩人一直積極服務社區、支持教育發展，並致力促進家庭及社區建設，深受居民尊重。
列治文最大的優勢之一就是多元文化。我們相信每一個社區都應該獲得尊重、被聆聽，並擁有代表自己聲音的機會。透過互相理解、互相支持，以及珍惜不同文化背景，我們能夠攜手建設一個更安全、更繁榮、更團結的列治文。
祝大家菲律賓獨立日快樂，並祝菲律賓文化傳承月活動圓滿成功！
