The Day of Valor

           The Day of Valour, also known as the Araw ng Kagitingan, commemorates the Filipino and American soldiers who stood up against Japanese forces during World War II.

          The story of the Fall of Bataan remains to be a devastating tale. But unlike The Shining or American Psycho, this is not a  story ripped off of fiction books. It is a tragedy engraved in the dark pages of our history. It also marks the greatness of Filipino fighters during World War II. It is marked on or around April 9 in the Philippines each year.

          Araw ng Kagitingan is a regular holiday in the Philippines and occurs on or around April 9. Many streets are closed and public transport routes may be redirected to give way for parades. Malls and other leisure areas remain open and most people may go to these places and use this day as a family day.
