Today, we come together not only to celebrate the 66th Araw ng Cotabato but to reaffirm the values that bind us as a community. This occasion is more than a commemoration of our city’s rich history—it is a meaningful opportunity to demonstrate our unity, our shared hopes, and our compassion for one another.

The Trade Fair we launch today is not just a marketplace—it is a celebration of inclusivity. It stands as a strong declaration that in Cotabato City, no one is left behind. Every citizen, every entrepreneur, every dreamer has a place and a role in the growth of our beloved city.

Let this event remind us of the power of working together, of supporting local, and of building a future where progress is shared by all.

Mabuhay ang Cotabato City!”
