In support for the celebration, DOT VI is displaying the new flag in its regional office at Casa Real De Iloilo (Old Provincial Capitol), General Luna St., Iloilo City. DOT VI staff headed by Regional Director Atty. Helen J. Catalbas conducted the simultaneous flag ceremony in line with the Stop and Salute Campaign. Said campaign posters are also being posted in the DOT VI office.

"We must respect the flag and pay tribute to the heroes who fought for our freedom. As government officials, we must value this freedom through providing quality services to the public”, Director Catalbas said.

DOT-accredited entities are also encouraged by the DOT VI to show their nationalism and patriotism through displaying the new flag.
