DOHA 28 May 2024 — The Embassy of the Republic of the Philippines in Doha joins the Filipino community in celebrating National Flag Day, an annual event held to commemorate the first unfurling of the Philippine Flag on Philippine soil during the Battle of Alapan in Imus, Cavite on 28 May 1898.

The declaration of 28 May of each year as National Flag Day was made through Proclamation No. 374 in 1965, which mandates the display of the National Flag on national holidays, or special holidays as the President may proclaim not only in all public buildings, official residences, public squares, and schools but whenever practicable, in all private buildings and homes, from sunrise to sunset.

In 1994, then President Fidel V. Ramos issued Executive Order No. 179, which mandates the display of the National Flag from 28 May to 12 June of every year, in all public buildings, government institutions and official residences.
