We express our condolences over the losses of revered democratic icon in the region, Corazon Aquino. Upon her death, her commitment in democracy will lies in every opportunity comes ahead, in spite of some of us may have a glimpse of Aquino's upheavals.
Her valiant faortitude to Phillipine democracy was historical. From a demure 'merely housewife' derided by dictator Marcos, Corazon Aquino had altered new course of her nation. A nation used to maligned with rampant corruption and abuses of Marcos for 20 years. Elective dictatorship supplanted with democratic leaders.
Her husband, an opposition leader, Benigno Aquino died in 1983 assassined at Manila Airport, as he returned from exile in Boston, United States of America. The assassined of her beloved man and Filipinos was an epoch of rakyat interest taking precedence over Marcos lusts. She told Filipinos "I am like you" "I am a victim of Marcos".
Therefore, growing Kuasa Rakyat was emerges marked the eclipse of Marcos dictatorship. He had earned precarious living as the President. An audible Filipinos chanted the mantra "Cory, Cory, Cory" on the street, somehow entrenched the determination of her campaigns. While no leader in history survive from the Kebangkitan Rakyat, Corazon Aquino rewritten the history as the next President as Marcos fled in 1986.
