Pride celebration in April?

(Just sharing a screenshot of the event, ctto)

Since 1994, we have been celebrating in the Philippines in June, started in QC as a protest event. There's a political reason behind this, to align it with the event that happened in New York US, where the first gay rally happened due to oppression in June 1969. Now I wonder, what's the reason behind why Manila organized this in April 2026? It feels like just a performative allyship with no actual political action. Manila housed this in 1994, then moved to Makati, Marikina then back to QC. It was moved from Manila to other Cities because of political reasons, primarily because of uncertainty of safety and security. Your thoughts?
