fasting
Assassination of
Ninoy
Ninoy Aquino had a very strong conviction that the Philippines must be a
democracy no matter what. He fought vehemently to eradicate Marcos'
dictatorship and to regain the Filipino people's freedom, however, it was an
assasination that ended his fight for democracy. Cory Aquino, his wife, felt that the
task of continuing her husband's mission has fallen on her shoulders so she
decides to stand up and lead to country on the way to freedom, peace, and
democracy.
After the death of Ninoy, what could have been expected was the loss of hope and
fight within the Filipinos; but, this was not the case. Instead, what appeared was an
even stronger Nation.
The Philippines during the time of Marcos' dictatorship regarded no respect for
human rights and much of our people were in struggle and pain. But as Cory
Aquino took her liberty and the Filipino peoples will, aspirations became more
than just mere ambition and dream that were kept in the heart.

The Filipino people came to Cory with one cry and that is democracy above all.
They had been such a huge and great factor for her challenge to the dictatorship.
If it hadn’t been for their commitment to the ways of democracy that went as far
as being prepared to give their lives for its pale imitation, I believe that her push
for candidacy wouldn't have been as strong nor as historical as it is known for
today.
Democracy is a gift that we, as citizens of
this country, should treasure and protect
at all costs.
The unity and courage that the Filipino
people showed during the EDSA
Revolution truly marked the world as one
of the most life-changing events in history.
It showed the world how to start a
revolution without spilling any blood.
Our freedom is something we should
always fight
