    Taken from wiki.. dagdag kaalaman lang. :D

    "Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand, originally commemorated by both countries on 25 April every year to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who fought at Gallipoli in the Ottoman Empire during World War I."

    Hahaha! Naku, binati ko pa naman yung kausap ko kanina sa IM na recruiter ng office namin sa Australia ng "Belated happy ANZAC day! How was the celebration?" Hahaha! Akala ko naman it's a type of festival in AU. Pero sumagot naman sya ng "It was great!" :)

    @JClem, hehe hindi ka nag-iisa..may binati rin akong Aussie colleague ng ganyan bago ako sinabihan ng Aussie boss ko na mali pala hehe

    ANZAC day also remembers the soldiers who have died in the succeeding conflicts so yung mga namatay sa Afghanistan, Iraq, inaalala rin nila sa araw na yun :)
