DESCRIPTION:

In an enduring commitment to economic progress and national pride, the Philippines annually celebrates "Made in the Philippines Products Week" from August 17 to 24, as established by Proclamation No. 76, series of 1936. This proclamation, initiated under the presidency of Manuel L. Quezon, underscores the importance of supporting and prioritizing local industries for the country's economic health and self-sufficiency.

The observance of "Made in the Philippines Products Week" is more than a mere celebration; it is a concerted effort to foster a culture of economic progressiveness by encouraging home industries. The Philippines, rich in natural resources and basic materials essential for industrial growth, has historically relied on imports for many domestic needs. This week-long event aims to shift this dependency by highlighting and promoting locally-made products for home and personal use.

Since its inception in the 1930s, "Made in the Philippines Products Week" has played a pivotal role in stimulating the development of native industries. The annual observance reminds Filipinos to embrace and support local products, thereby contributing to the nation's industrial growth and economic stability. The event is a call to action for Filipinos to celebrate their nation's bountiful resources and actively participate in economic advancement by choosing Philippine-made products.

Over the years, this observance has become a symbol of national pride and a catalyst for economic progress. It encourages the cultivation of local industries, supporting them to move beyond their nascent stages and become competitive players in both local and global markets. Various activities mark the week-long celebration to showcase the diversity and quality of products made in the Philippines.

As "Made in the Philippines Products Week" continues to be observed each year, it is a testament to the country's commitment to nurturing a strong and self-reliant economy grounded in the support and growth of homegrown industries. The enduring legacy of Proclamation No. 76 highlights the importance of national solidarity in economic endeavors and the crucial role of domestic sectors in shaping the Philippines' future.
