Advocates of the Filipino language decried the recent ruling of the Supreme Court removing the Filipino and Panitikan in college noting that this “will kill our country’s soul.”
The group lamented the SC’s refusal to give course to its motion for reconsideration. “We believe that justice has not been served by their refusal to amply hear our arguments [and] we reiterate that they should have summoned petitioners to an oral argument, rather than issue a ruling on the basis of quick readings of tons of documents that we have submitted,” Tanggol Wika added.
Tanggol Wika argued that the High Court “accepted our main point that indeed, the Constitution’s letter and spirit compel our whole government to support the teaching and propagation” of Filipino and Panitikan. “However, the Supreme Court claims that the constitution does not mention in what level/s these subjects should be taught,” it added.
“The ravaging tides of globalization and cultural homogenization will surely wipe Filipino and Panitikan out, if we refuse to institutionalize their propagation in our while education system,” the group added. This, it added, is “choice between our collective survival as a nation, and our collective death as a free country.”
