Three days after A-Day on October 23, 1944, while the roar of guns were still echoing on the background, the commonwealth government was restored on Philippine soil. In a simple but impressive ceremony held on the steps of Leyte Provincial Capitol Building, General MacArthur broadcast an address announcing the establishment of the Philippine Government with President Osmeña as the head.
