Locsin graces Czech Republic national day 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Roy MabasaForeign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr. made a surprise appearance at the Czech Republic National Day celebration Saturday night where he joined the almost 500 guests who feasted on the overflowing Czech’s pilsner beer which became this year’s theme for the festivity. Called “Czech Beer Night”, Šediva said the Embassy opted to deviate from the usual conduct of national day celebrations and instead celebrate it in a “unique” way involving many facets of its ties to the Philippines. The movement transformed former Communist Czechoslovakia into what is now a democratic state of the Czech Republic. In an impromptu speech at the Czech National Day, Locsin recalled the moments of the non-violent uprising in that Eastern European country that took place more than three years after the 1986 EDSA Revolution.
