-

President Arroyo has declared November as National Consciousness Month for Punctuality and Civility.

Mrs. Arroyo issued Proclamation No. 1638 “Declaring the Month of November 2008 as the National Consciousness Month for Punctuality (Respect for the Value of Time) and Civility (Respect for the Rights of Others)” on Oct. 8.

She said the Organized Response for the Advancement of Society, Inc. (ORAS), a non-government, non-profit and non-stock organization composed of leaders from all sectors of society, “has continually and effectively promoted a national campaign for the transformation of the habit of our people in respect to the value of time and respect for the rights of others.”

Mrs. Arroyo said the ORAS movement has gained popular support in the community, the public and private sectors, non-government organizations, other associations as well as the media.      

“Punctuality and civility are two indispensable virtues that our citizenry must possess if we are to aspire for a peaceful, prosperous and united society,” Mrs. Arroyo said.

“There is need for a new breed of Filipino, who makes the most of his time and respects the rights of his fellowmen to their time and freedom, thus ensuring a responsible citizenry,” the President said. – Paolo Romero
