DOST Camiguin

Earlier this week, a Philippine flag retirement ceremony was conducted and led by the Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Textile Research Institute (DOST-PTRI) to give final respect to worn-out flags. In line with this, amendments are being proposed to retire old flags not through burning, but through the recycling and physical disintegration of their fibers. This approach preserves the respect and honor accorded to the Philippine flag while promoting an eco-friendly alternative.
