    Kilaisi! si Jua!" # Reacio! Paper

    Identity crisis is a growing issue in our country. Not only because foreign

    culture is prominent, but also, the stigmas our country is facing, the vicious cycle of 

    corruption, the rampant poverty take away our pride as Filipinos. However there are

    people who believe that our identity should be upheld, and that it is worth ghting

    for. Last arch !", !#"$, an event %ilatisin si &uan invited some of known

    personalities whose career or work aims in upholding the Filipino identity. 'hese

    were (u))feed writer Isabel Laureta, *awad %alinga founder 'oni eloto, '+

    hose-ournalist ichael Fa-atin, and singercomposer be /ancel.

    I could describe the event in three ad-ectives. First, it was informative. 'he

    speakers came from di0erent working elds1media, music industry, nationwide

    organi)ation. It was indeed a good learning e2perience to hear from di0erent

    perspectives. Isabel Laureta talked about how beautiful our country3s tourist spots

    are, and how vibrant are the attitudes of our countrymen. 4he stressed that these

    are something we can never deny as Filipinos. 4he emphasi)ed how social media

    highlights all these treasures of the 5hilippines, especially those which are still

    unknown to many. be /ancel talked about individuality, about nding ourselves

    and our true passion. 67e are specically designed to be ourselves,8 he said.

    (ottomline is, a proud Filipino appreciates his self as part of a country with its own

    traditions, amidst emerging cultures, trends, etc. 9s someone born during the

    artial Law period, ichael Fa-atin spoke about how nationalism anchors on history,

    and as Filipinos, we should be knowledgeable on what had happened in the past tomake an improvement.

    7hat struck the most to me was 'ony eloto3s part, which deserves my

    second ad-ective, e0ective. It was very obvious that he really is a proud Filipino and

    his stand was strong. He wanted to reverse migration by creating an environment

    conducive for work, in order to ma2imi)e the many talents of the people. He said,

    furthermore, that for us to achieve progress we must live an honest life, we must be

    compassionate to the unprivileged by treating them as our family. (y lifting each

    other from poverty, we are, at the same time, helping our country.

    I have witnessed e0ective speakers during the event. 9lthough they

    communicate in di0erent means, they are united by their goal of strengthening thetrue Filipino identity. 9s a -ournalist, you communicate through written or spoken

    words, which must be well1crafted. 9s a composer you should possess the talent of 

    good song1writing, and as a musician you must be able to have the appeal to your

    audience. 9s an orgin)ation leader, you are re:uired to communicate with other

    parties that might help you with your cause. 'ony eloto even brought foreign

    people to relay to the audience their role as foreigner in a Filipino organi)ation. 'he

    third ad-ective, therefore, would be motivating. 9s a speech communication

    achieve a goal.
