This coming July 15, 2012 marks the 25th foundation day of Cordillera Administrative Region. This year's celebration aims to instill in the people of the Cordilleras an enhanced awareness, deeper appreciation and unwavering commitment to the history and aspirations of CAR, on its 25th years of existence. It also aspires to propel unwavering commitment and support to the pursuit of Cordillera Autonomy. Numerous activities are slated for this year with the kick-off activity which was launched at Mt. Data, Bauko in Mountain Province last May 28, 2012. This was to commemorate the "Sipat" that triggered the creation of the Cordillera Administrative Region.

In line with this, all government agencies and units are encouraged to show their support by posting the Cordillera Month banner and to participate during the Commemorative Program on July 15, 2012.
