Isang malaking dagok ang pagtanggal o pagbawas ng asignaturang Filipino na siyang kinalakhan ng mga mag-aaral mula sa elementarya hanggang sekondarya at senior high school. Ito ay may mga usaping kasaysayan, kultura, wika at angking yaman ng ating minamahal na bansang Pilipinas na siyang esensyal upang malinang ang kasanayang pangwika, pampanitikan, pampananaliksik, at pangkomunikasyon ng mga Pilipino.

Ngunit, bakit kailangang tanggalin o bawasan natin ang pag-aaral ng asignaturang Filipino, na hindi lingid sa ating kaalaman, sariling atin? Saan ba ang patriyotismo o pagmamahal natin sa ating bayan? Saan ba ang ating pag-iingat at paggalang sa ating wikang kinagisnan? Hindi ba't paglalapastangan ito sa ating bayan? O tuluyan na nga bang isinusuko na natin ang ating pagiging makabayan?

Nakakalungkot isipin na mismong mga Pilipino ang nakakapagplanong alisin o bawasan ang pag-aaral ng asignaturang dapat ay inaalagaan at pinalalago nating mga Pilipino. Hindi lamang ito isang asignatura; dala nito ang mga bagay na dapat ay nalalaman ng bawat Pilipino. Hindi lamang ito tungkol sa isyu ng pagbabawas o pagtanggal sa asignatura, kundi dala-dala nito ang kapakanan ng ating wika.

Hahayaan na lamang ba nating manamlay o mabura sa isipan ng bawat mag-aaral na Pilipino ang kahalagahan ng pagiging isang Pilipino. Samakatuwid, mapa-elementarya man o sekondarya, dapat pa ring aralin ang asignaturang Filipino. Pagpapakita ito ng pagmamahal at paggalang sa ating bayang Pilipinas.

Tanglaw natin ang asignaturang ito tungo sa kinabukasang malaya at maunlad. Kung walang pagpapahalaga ang mga nasa taas, marahil ay kaakibat nito ang pagbabalewala sa pangangailangan ng mga estudyante na malinang ang kanilang kasanayang bumubuo sa kanilang pagkatao.

Nararapat lamang na pagtibayin natin ang ating wika. Tayo, bilang mga Pilipino ang dapat yumakap sa ating mayamang kasaysayan at kultura. Tanggalin natin sa ating isipan ang pagkontra sa ating inang-bayan. Tayo dapat ang nagkakaisa, Filipino para sa Pilipino. Asignaturang Filipino, pausbungin at ating palawakin.
