these requirements in Social Science 2. To my parents who are always there during my ups and

the Philippines constitution. We need to obey the rules and

regulations being patriot, perform the duties can be an abiding

citizen. We state this society organizing specially the manner

which sovereign by the power distributed. We need to teach right

duties of citizenship being a Filipino. We need to love our country

by developing moral discipline and professional values. Patriotism

is the first motivation of 1987 Philippine constitution. In which

as we practice of our country and fellow is mandated rule and

regulation, thus we obey with then we come.

Nationalism, as I know if you just only believe of what have

been written to constitution as to obey rules. Filipino nation’s life
