ACT NO. 8491
AN ACT PRESCRIBING THE
CODE OF THE NATIONAL FLAG,
ANTHEM, MOTTO, COAT-OF-
ARMS AND OTHER HERALDIC
ITEMS AND DEVICES OF THE
PHILIPPINES.
This act shall be known as the “Flag and
Heraldic Code of the Philippines.”

The “Flag and Heraldic Code of the Philippines,” mandates that reverence and respect shall
be accorded at all times to the Philippine flag, the national anthem and other national
symbols that embody the country’s ideals and traditions, and express the principles of
sovereignty and national solidarity. It penalizes violators.
 The flag, if flown from a
flagpole, shall have its blue field
on top in time of peace and the
red field on top in time of war; if
in a hanging position, the blue
field shall be to the right (left of
the observer) in time of peace
and the red field to the right (left
of the observer) in time of war.
 A flag worn out through wear and tear shall not be thrown
away. It shall be solemnly burned to avoid misuse or
desecration. The flag shall be replaced immediately when it
begins to show signs of wear and tear.
The flag shall be hoisted to the top briskly
and lowered ceremoniously. The flag shall
never touch anything beneath it, such as the
ground, flood, water or other objects. After
being lowered, the flag shall be handled and
folded solemnly as part of the ceremony.
May 28 to June 12 of each year are
declared as Flag Days, during which all
offices, agencies and instrumentalities of
government, business establishments and
institutions of learning, including private
homes, are enjoined to display the flag.
 HALF-MAST
The flag shall be flown at half-mast as a sign of mourning
on all buildings and places where it is displayed, as
provided for in this Act, on the day of official
announcement of the death of any of the following
officials:

a. The President or a former President, for ten (10) days; b.

The Vice-President, the Chief Justice, the President of the
Senate, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives,
for seven (7) days; and c. Other persons to be determined
by the Institute, for any period less than seven (7) days. The
flag shall be flown at half-mast on all the buildings and
places where the decedent was holding office, on the day of
death until the day of interment of an incumbent member of
the Supreme Court, the Cabinet, the Senate or the House of
Representatives, and such other persons as may be
determined by the Institute. The flag when flown at half-
mast shall be first hoisted to the peak for a moment then
lowered to the half-mast position. The flag shall again be
raised briskly to the peak before it is lowered for the day.
 CASKET
The flag may be used to cover the caskets of
the honored dead of the military, veterans of
previous wars, national artists, and of civilians
who have rendered distinguished service to the
nation. In such cases, the flag shall be placed
such that the white triangle shall be at the head
and the blue portion shall cover the right side
of the caskets. The flag shall not be lowered to
the grave or allowed to touch the ground, but
shall be folded solemnly and handed over to
the heirs of the deceased.
 PLEDGE OF
ALLEGIANCE
TO THE FLAG
Such pledge shall be recited
while standing with the right
hand palm open raised shoulder
high. Individuals whose faith or
religious beliefs prohibit them
from making such pledge must
nonetheless show full respect
when the pledge is being
rendered by standing at
attention.
The following are prohibited with
respect to the flag:

– To mutilate, deface, defile, trample on,

cast contempt or commit on the flag or any
act or omission that casts dishonor or
ridicule upon the flag over its surface (thus,
it is illegal to burn the
  Philippine flag

– To dip the flag to any person or

object by way of compliment or
salute.

 
- To use the flag as drapery, festoon or
tablecloth; as covering for ceilings,

  back and top
of motor vehicles; as a staff or whip;

and as trademarks or for industrial,
commercial or agricultural labels or

discotheques, cockpits, night and day clubs,
casinos, gambling joints and places of vice
or where frivolity prevails.
 

– To display in public any foreign flag,

except in embassies and other diplomatic
establishments, and in offices of
international organizations.

advertisement or infomercial.

 
– To display the flag in front of buildings or
offices occupied by aliens.
- To wear the flag in whole or part as a

to the flag.

National Anthem : Lupang
Hinirang
The code expressly prescribes that its rendition, whether played or sung, shall be in
accordance with the musical arrangement and composition of Julian Felipe. (We
understand that, according to the National Historic Commission of the Philippines, the
proper tempo is a 2/4 and 100 metronomes, and that the anthem should last 53 seconds).

When the national anthem is played at a public gathering, whether by a band or by

singing or both, or reproduced by any means, the attending public shall sing it with
passion.
As a sign of respect, all persons shall stand at attention and face the Philippine flag, if there
is one displayed. If none, they shall face the band or conductor. At the first note, all persons
shall execute a salute by placing their right palms over their left chests. Those in the
military or scouting shall give the prescribed salute.

The anthem shall not be played and sung for mere recreation, amusement or entertainment
purposes, except on some occasions. These are international competitions where the
Philippines is the host or has a representative; local competitions; during “signing off” and
“signing on” of radio broadcasting and television stations; and before the initial and last
screening of films or before the opening of theater performances.

 10 key principles of
servant leadership
1. Listening
Listening is at the heart of servant leadership. If a
team member’s talking, give them your full focus
and attention—no interruption allowed! It’s a
simple way to make your team feel valued so
they know you care.
2. Empathy
A lot goes into empathy, but when it comes to
servant leadership, it basically comes down to
getting to know your team. Find out what makes
them tick, and learn their strengths and
weaknesses. That way you can let your team
members shine and maybe even help them turn
their weaknesses into strengths.
3. Healing
Healing is as simple as creating a healthy work
environment that has work-life balance built in.
It’s also about giving people the tools they need
to succeed so they feel like a valued member of
the team.
4. Self Awareness
Take inventory of your own strengths and
weaknesses, and figure out how you fit into the
overall team. Then use yourself in ways that
benefit the team and the company. Recognizing
your own limitations can help you see
opportunities to leverage your team’s strengths
more clearly.

leader and a company. After all, how else will you your job to set the tone for your team, so don’t
carve a positive path for your team? ask people to do things you wouldn’t do yourself.
 10 key principles of
servant leadership
9. Commitment to
the growth of people
Servant-leaders believe that people have an intrinsic
value beyond their tangible contributions as
workers. As such, servant-leaders are deeply
committed to a personal, professional, and spiritual
growth of each and every individual within the
organization.
10. Building the
Community
Servant-leaders are aware that the shift from local
communities to large institutions as the primary
shaper of human lives has changed our perceptions
and has caused a feeling of loss. Servant-leaders
seek to identify a means for building community
among those who work within a given institution.

4. Helps people with

life issues
It’s important to offer
opportunities for personal
development beyond the job.
5. Encourages
The hallmark of a servant leader
is encouragement. And a true
servant leader says, “Let’s go
do it,” not, “You go do it.”
6. Sells instead of tells
A servant leader is the opposite
of a dictator. It’s a style all
about persuading, not
commanding.
