17th President of the Republic of the Philippines' Inauguration
As said, the Republic of the Philippines shall only have the liberty to elect a new president every six years, thus enabling their best abilities and strategic plans for the newly elected to impose its decisions for a better environment in the Philippines. The Inauguration shall be turned over every 30th of June; the 1987 Philippine Constitution mandates this. Every elected member must turn over to the following newly elected member.
The Inauguration itself shall be open for its newly elected President with its oath or affirmation before they shall be able to execute one's duty to the country. The gathering is usually open to the public to show its support for the newest elected member and broadcast to everyone as the next presidency shall be taking its promises towards all Filipinos involved. The Inauguration has started with its oath-taking ceremonies and now has expanded to its day-long events catering to parades, speeches, and balls.
The Inauguration of the presidency is a way to let its supporters show the given encouragement they have given in electing the next in line for the presidency. The newly elected President could also use this liberty to thank and name all his directions towards the betterment of the country. It is a celebration to fully commence the end and the beginning of a new president in our country.
