The state of the nation address (SONA) is an annual discourse by the President of the Philippines before a joint session of Congress. Mandated by the 1987 Constitution, the speech is delivered every fourth Monday of July at the Plenary Hall of the Batasang Pambansa complex in Quezon City. The SONA is a report card on the status of the nation’s economic, political, and social condition. It is a summation of the accomplishments of the administration thus far and its future plans and programs.
