Prime Minister Celebrates Valentine’s Day and Birland’s Spirit at CARESAS International Foundation Festival in Capas, Tarlac
Capas, Tarlac, Philippines – February 14, 2025
On Valentine’s Day, I had the profound honor of serving as the Keynote Speaker at the inspiring Festival organized by the CARESAS International Foundation in Capas City, Tarlac—a first-class municipality renowned as the home of World War II heroes.
During World War II, Capas served as the final destination of the infamous Bataan Death March and the location of Camp O’Donnell, the notorious concentration camp where tens of thousands of Filipino and American prisoners of war (POWs) tragically perished due to starvation, disease, and brutal treatment by the Imperial Japanese Army. The site stands as a somber reminder of one of history’s darkest chapters, with extraordinarily high mortality rates among captives. Today, Capas continues to honor this legacy through community efforts that promote remembrance, compassion, and progress.
The event was graciously hosted by Mr. Henry Balagtas, Revival Founding President of CARESAS International Foundation, and his wife, Mrs. Balagtas—proud sons and daughters of Tarlac. Mr. Balagtas has long been a steadfast believer in my vision and in the establishment of Birland State as a sovereign entity dedicated to dignity, humanitarianism, and opportunity for all.
Our connection dates back to 2024, when the couple warmly hosted and accommodated me during my visit to Washington, D.C., for a conference at the US Federal Government Building. Since then, Mr. Balagtas has repeatedly invited me to speak about Birland State, and I was deeply grateful for the opportunity to finally fulfill that commitment at this meaningful gathering.
Distinguished guests, including members of the CARESAS Board of Directors and supporters who traveled from the United States, Canada, and various cities in the Philippines, joined the celebration. Their enthusiasm was overwhelming—they expressed immense pride in seeing a fellow Filipino, their own compatriot, serve as Prime Minister of a new and emerging nation. The atmosphere turned festive, with attendees cheering and declaring that the day felt like a personal celebration of Birland State’s 11th Founding Anniversary.
The program focused entirely on Birland State—no other topics or guest speakers took the stage. Only the Prime Minister and Queen of Birland were highlighted, as the community danced, sang, and shared joy for hours. Countless group photos captured the warmth and solidarity of the moment.
A special highlight was the presentation of a beautifully designed plaque, crafted by an engineer from the CARESAS International Foundation who previously worked in Dubai. The plaque prominently features the symbol of the Martyrs of Capas, Tarlac, during World War II—a poignant tribute that bridges historical remembrance with contemporary support and friendship.
This experience reaffirmed the global reach of Birland State’s message of hope, unity, and self-determination. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Balagtas, the entire CARESAS International Foundation team, and all who attended for their unwavering belief in our shared future.
Birland State continues to build bridges of friendship and goodwill across borders, inspired by stories of resilience like those from Capas.

Day tour with CARESAS International Foundation team and Founding President Henry Monterey Balagtas
We visited the Death March Monument initiated by Captain Rufino Balagtas, Admin officer of I O’Donnell and the Capas National Shrine in Tarlac, Philippines
“The Capas National Shrine in Tarlac, Philippines, is a 54-hectare memorial park dedicated to over 30,000 Allied soldiers (approx. 25,000 Filipinos and 6,000 Americans) who died at the Camp O’Donnell concentration camp following the Bataan Death March in 1942. Established in 1991 and inaugurated in 2003, it features a 70-meter obelisk and a black marble wall engraved with the names of the deceased, marking the final site of the infamous World War II march.
Historical Background and Significance
Original Site: The site originally served as Camp O’Donnell, a pre-war Philippine Army training center established in 1940.
POW Camp: After the Fall of Bataan and Corregidor in April 1942, the Japanese Imperial Army turned it into a concentration camp for Allied prisoners of war.
The Death March: Survivors of the brutal Bataan Death March were brought here, where thousands more perished due to disease, starvation, and inhumane conditions.
Commemoration: The shrine is the focus of the annual Araw ng Kagitingan (Day of Valor) on April 9.”

Global Peace and Humanism’s Bright Figure: Queen Eden Soriano Trinidad
Author: Valeh Rufullayev, Legal Media Expert – Azerbaijan
In our modern world, the image that comes to mind when we speak of a statesman is often limited to rigid political frameworks. Yet there are individuals who combine state governance with morality, science, and true humanism, thereby presenting a new model of leadership. The person we are speaking about today—Prime Minister of the State of Birland, Prof. Dr. Queen Eden Soriano Trinidad —is precisely such a bearer of a global mission.
Architect of Humanitarian Sovereignty
The State of #Birland, led by Queen Eden Trinidad, is a state model located on the African continent (Bir Tawil) that has devoted its entire foundational philosophy to humanitarian aid, peace, and ensuring a dignified life for people. For the Queen, leadership is not merely power; it means respect for every individual’s rights and the building of unbreakable bridges of friendship among the world’s peoples. Her official meetings held in 2024 at the U.S. Federal Government building and her historic visit in 2025 to Kapas City in the Philippines are practical manifestations of this mission.
Respect for Historical Memory: The Kapas Visit
Historical memory occupies an important place in the Queen’s activities. Her commemoration of the heroes of World War II in Kapas and the respect she showed to the victims of the “Bataan Death March” demonstrate a leader’s loyalty to her own people and to human history. She aims not to forget the pains of the past, but to build a future filled with peace and compassion from them.
Unity of Science and Diplomacy
Queen Eden Trinidad is not only a political leader but also a respected scholar. The Birland International Royal University (#BIR U) under her leadership today provides diplomatic knowledge and professional education to young people from various countries around the world. Her selection in 2026 as “Ambassador of Peace” in the United States and the conferral of the “Honorary Ambassador” award by South Africa’s All Nations University confirm her globally recognized prestige.
“Seeds of Eternity” and the Poetic Spirit
The richness of the Queen’s inner world can also be seen in her literary work. The poem “Seeds of Eternity” she wrote is, in a sense, her life philosophy. The idea that life is temporary but the soul and the works accomplished leave an eternal mark forms the main thread of all the Queen’s activities. She celebrates the values she believes in—love, faith, and peace—with the same sincerity both in politics and in poetry.
Under the leadership of Queen Eden Soriano Trinidad, the State of Birland today stands as a new symbol of peace and humanism. Her work shows that even in the most difficult political circumstances, it is possible to preserve dignity and accomplish great things for humanity. The Queen describes 2026 as “an unwritten chapter” and, in this new chapter, promises equality, peace, and prosperity to all the peoples of the world.
As representatives of law and the media, we support the Queen on this sacred path and believe that the “seeds of eternity” she has sown will yield abundant fruit for all humanity in the future.
Note: The article draws on the official reports of the Prime Minister of the State of Birland and her diplomatic achievements covering 2025–2026.
In accordance with the spirit and content of the article, I present the poem “Seeds of Eternity”, which reflects Queen Eden Soriano Trinidad’s life philosophy:
SEEDS OF LEGACY ( ETERNITY)
One day, the luster of my eyes will fade,
I’ll cherish it now, while the light still sways.
One day, my limbs will grow weary, my back will bend,
I’ll walk these paths while my strength won’t end.
I choose to savor both sunny and rainy days,
For when the winter storms come, I’ll find my way.
In autumn’s embrace, I’ve planted my seeds,
And when the rain falls, they’ll rise, fulfilling my needs—
Their blooms will beam, bright with a smile,
A harvest of love, nurtured with time’s gentle style.
When the seasons turn and the winds grow cold,
I’ll know I’ve lived fully, with a heart that’s bold.
Each moment, a thread in the tapestry I weave,
A legacy of joy, of all I choose to believe.
For even as time takes what it must,
I’ll hold the moments dear, in love and trust.
And when the sun sets, casting shadows long,
I’ll rest in peace, knowing my life was a song.

Qlobal Sülhün və Humanizmin Parlaq Simalarından Biri: Kraliça Eden Soriano Trinidad
Müəllif: Valeh Rufullayev Hüquq Media Eksperti
Müasir dünyamızda dövlət xadimi dedikdə ağla gələn obrazlar çox vaxt sərt siyasi çərçivələrlə məhdudlaşır. Lakin elə şəxsiyyətlər var ki, onlar dövlət idarəçiliyini mənəviyyat, elm və əsl humanizmlə birləşdirərək yeni bir liderlik nümunəsi ortaya qoyurlar. Bu gün haqqında bəhs etdiyimiz şəxsiyyət – Birland Dövlətinin Baş Naziri, Prof. Dr. Kraliça Eden Soriano Trinidad məhz belə bir qlobal missiyanın daşıyıcısıdır.
Humanitar Suverenliyin Memarı
Kraliça Eden Trinidadın rəhbərlik etdiyi Birland Dövləti, Afrika qitəsində (Bir Tavil) yerləşən və öz quruluş fəlsəfəsini tamamilə humanitar yardımlara, sülhə və insanların ləyaqətli yaşamasına həsr etmiş bir dövlət modelidir. Kraliça üçün rəhbərlik sadəcə hakimiyyət deyil, hər bir fərdin hüququna hörmət və dünya xalqları arasında sarsılmaz dostluq körpüləri qurmaq deməkdir. Onun 2024-cü ildə ABŞ Federal Hökumət binasında keçirdiyi rəsmi görüşlər və 2025-ci ildə Filipinin Kapas şəhərinə etdiyi tarixi səfər bu missiyanın əməli təzahürüdür.
Tarixi Yaddaşa Ehtiram: Kapas Səfəri
Kraliçanın fəaliyyətində tarixi yaddaş mühüm yer tutur. Onun Kapasdakı İkinci Dünya Müharibəsi qəhrəmanlarının xatirəsini yad etməsi, “Bataan Ölüm Marşı” qurbanlarına göstərdiyi ehtiram, bir liderin öz xalqına və bəşər tarixinə olan vəfalılığının göstəricisidir. O, keçmişin acılarını unutmamağı, lakin onlardan sülh və şəfqət dolu bir gələcək qurmağı hədəfləyir.
Elm və Diplomatiyanın Vəhdəti
Kraliça Eden Trinidad təkcə siyasi lider deyil, həm də nüfuzlu bir elm xadimidir. Onun rəhbərlik etdiyi Birland Beynəlxalq Kral Universiteti (BIR U) bu gün dünyanın müxtəlif ölkələrindən olan gənclərə diplomatik biliklər və peşəkar təhsil verir. 2026-cı ildə Kraliçanın ABŞ-da “Sülh Səfiri” seçilməsi və Cənubi Afrikanın “All Nations University” tərəfindən “Fəxri Səfir” mükafatına layiq görülməsi onun qlobal miqyasda qəbul edilən nüfuzunun təsdiqidir.
”Əbədiyyət Toxumları” və Poetik Ruh
Kraliçanın daxili dünyasının zənginliyini onun ədəbi yaradıcılığında da görmək olar. Onun qələmə aldığı “Əbədiyyət Toxumları” şeiri bir növ onun həyat fəlsəfəsidir. Həyatın müvəqqəti olması, lakin ruhun və görülən işlərin əbədi iz qoyması fikri kraliçanın bütün fəaliyyətinin ana xəttidir. O, inandığı dəyərləri – sevgini, inamı və hüzuru həm siyasətdə, həm də poeziyada eyni səmimiyyətlə tərənnüm edir.
Nəticə: Birlandın Gələcəyi
Kraliça Eden Soriano Trinidadın liderliyi altında Birland Dövləti bu gün sülhün və humanizmin yeni rəmzi kimi çıxış edir. Onun fəaliyyəti göstərir ki, ən çətin siyasi şəraitlərdə belə, ləyaqəti qorumaq və insanlıq naminə böyük işlər görmək mümkündür. 2026-cı ilin “yazılmamış bir fəsil” olduğunu deyən Kraliça, bu yeni fəsildə bütün dünya xalqlarına bərabərlik, sülh və firavanlıq vəd edir.
Biz hüquq və media nümayəndələri olaraq, Kraliçanın bu müqəddəs yolunu dəstəkləyir və onun əkdiyi “əbədiyyət toxumlarının” gələcəkdə bütün bəşəriyyət üçün bol bəhrə verəcəyinə inanırıq.
Qeyd: Məqalədə Birland Dövləti Baş Nazirinin rəsmi hesabatlarından və 2025-2026-cı illəri əhatə edən diplomatik nailiyyətlərindən istifadə olunmuşdur.
Məqalənin ruhuna və məzmununa uyğun olaraq, Kraliça Eden Soriano Trinidadın həyat fəlsəfəsini əks etdirən “Əbədiyyət Toxumları” şeirini təqdim edirəm:
ƏBƏDİYYƏT TOXUMLARI
Mənim də anım gəlib keçəcək,
Gözlərimin parıltısı son kərə,
Yaxınlarımın qəlbinə sevinc ələyəcək.
Amma mənim üçün işıq hələ sönməyib,
Mən bu anın qədrini indi bilirəm.
Mənim anım əllərimin istisini saxlayacaq,
Kürəyim ağrı və əzab hiss etməyəcək.
Dostların, rəfiqələrin göz yaşları quruyacaq,
Həyatımın dairəsi öz qaynağına dönəcək.
Amma mübarizədə gücüm tükənməyib,
Taleyin bəxş etdiyi sevinc naminə.
Mən izdiham içində addımlayaraq,
Ay cığırında yağışdan və günəşdən zövq alıram.
Baharın şəfəqləri tarlaları isidəcək,
Yer yay istisi ilə toxumu bəsləyəcək.
Payızın qucağında toxumlar boy atacaq,
Arzular çin olacaq, ailələr doğulacaq.
Mənim evimdə sevgi məhsulu bol olacaq.
Biz uşaqlara həyat sevincini tərənnüm edirik,
Onlarla birlikdə, gülüşlər içində,
İnamın müqəddəs odu ilə əbədiyyət dünyasına addımlayırıq.
Qış fırtınaları yağışlarla əvəzlənəndə,
Və irəlidə bizi soyuq küləklər gözləyəndə,
Mən biləcəyəm ki, arxamda
Köksümdə cəsur bir ürək döyünüb.
Mən bir xalça toxudum və hər bir sapı,
Uca bir inamla yaşanmış bir sətirdir.
Sevinc dolu piyaləni sonadək içmək,
Və əbədiyyətdə doğma ocağın xatirəsini qorumaq üçün…
Zaman keçəcək və əbədi yolda,
Yaddaşın sahilləri boyu addımlayacağam.
Ruhumun tapdığı hüzur içində,
Xoşbəxtlik və inam nəğməsini ucaldacağam.
Kraliça Eden Soriano Trinidad

TESTIMONY OF JOE KIDD AND SHEILA BURKE from MICHIGAN USA – the Power couple among the pioneer graduates of Birland International Royal University_BIR U, 6mos. Professional studies on International Diploma on International Diplomacy and Relations-IdDIR
“WE BEGIN THIS YEAR WITH A MILESTONE IN OUR CAREER:
Joe Kidd & Sheila Burke have achieved virtually everything we have set out to accomplish together. Two time World Music Songwriters of the Year Detroit Music Awards, three time International Singer Songwriter Association Vocalists of the Year, National Beat Poetry Foundation Beat Poet Laureates, Michigan Rock & Roll Legends Hall of Fame inductees, Honorary Doctorates from Federation of Writers International, Ordained Ministers in nondenominational church.
We have opened our hearts and minds to possibilities and it has brought forth great rewards. Not without cost. This is in no way intended to be a self aggrandizing post. Sheila and I have been gifted with certain powers and the talent to put them to work in the world. We work tirelessly and fearlessly to create an environment and an atmosphere of beauty, truth, and goodness. We often struggle against adversaries seen and unseen. We have always known it is a world of treachery, but also of love.
2025 was among our busiest of years. Thousands of miles of travel.
Athens and Larissa Greece, Frankfurt Germany, then home and off to Chicago, Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, Tennessee, New Orleans, Atlanta, Connecticut, New York. In addition to appearances in all of those locations, we performed well over 100 dates in our home region, and many appearances on zoom. We wrote material for more than 100 anthologies, magazines, and various publications.
***At the same time we served as regional representatives for ISSA as well as Official Poets of Birland North Africa.
While we were doing all of that, we were enrolled in a six month course in International Diplomacy at Birland Royal University.
This was no piece of cake. It was as comprehensive, detailed, and challenging as any course I had at Sacred Heart Seminary. Online lectures, reading, writing, problem solving. These documents that you see in this post did not come easily. They are not something that someone printed at home. They are being shipped to us from offices in the Philippines. They are the result of a season of study. They will hold a prominent position in our home. They give us the authority to serve as official diplomatic representatives in the fields of economics, human resources, military engagement, and more.
You may be certain that as we progress through 2026 speaking on behalf of all of the organizations mentioned above, that we will do so with enthusiasm, respect, and the intent to promote social justice, world peace, and cultural diversity in all of our capacities.”
