With everything that is happening in our country today, music is one of the few things that unite us. It shapes and reflects our society. It makes us come together.
Dancers follow its beat; protesters use it to find their voice. It can promote ideals such as peace and solidarity. It can also prepare armies for battle.
Today, we will use it to express our LOVE — to our fellowmen, to our beloved Davaoeños, and to all the Filipinos who choose to love despite our differences.
In Davao Region, Diversity is our gift... and no matter how diverse we are, PEACE IS OUR CULTURE.
We are DAVAO.
We choose LOVE.
