...
Benigno Aquino, fondly called Ninoy, was one of the most important political Filipino leaders of the twentieth century. ... In 1967, Ninoy Aquino became a senator of the Philippines.
In 1968, Ninoy became the leader of the Liberal Party. ...
In spite of the advise of colleagues not to return to the country, Ninoy decided to return to Manila in August 21, 1983 to help the opposition prepare for the legislative elections. ... Marcos’ Chief of Staff, General Fabian Ver and others from the Armed Forces of the Philippines were blamed for the assassination of Ninoy but were acquitted by a panel of judges appointed by President Marcos. ... Remembering Ninoy means remembering those who went before him and alongside him with the same passion and appreciation.
Ninoy was not the only one who have made sacrifices for us to enjoy the democracy, freedom and peace. ...
The death anniversary of Ninoy provides an opportunity for us to remember not only the lives of martyrs like Rizal and Bonifacio but also of great men like Jose Diokno, Lorenzo Tanada, Sultan Kudarat, Joaquin Roces and countless other men and women who may have not so dramatically given up their lives for us but who also deserve the same gratitude for the freedom we enjoy today.
