The First women president of the Philippines, President Corazon C. Aquino died last August 1, 2009 of a colon cancer.
She was the idol of democracy. A simple wife who continued her husbands fight for democracy in the Philippines.
The Filipino people pays tribute by wearing yellow ribbons in their dresses, yellow ribbons along the streets, and attending her wake at first in the Dela Salle and later on in the Manila Cathedral.
August 5, 2009 was declared as Special Non-working Holiday as the late president was laid in the Manila Memorial Park.
Paalam President Corazon Aquino!!! May you inspire others to continue fighting for our freedom!!!
Go Go Go 2010 Election!!!
