Today marks the 23rd anniversary of Ninoy's death

Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr. was assassinated on this day, 1983, during the dictatorship of then President of the Philippines, the late Ferdinand Marcos.

He was one of the last true patriots. He was one of the last Filipinos who did what he did out of sheer love for the country. That is truly a rarity in Philippine politics nowadays.

A moment's silence for this hero who encouraged real "People Power."

Hi jennie! Sorry, have no recipe for laing. It's difficult to cook because pag hindi daw marunong, makati sa lalamunan. Sure, go ahead. I'll put you on my list of blogs I read. Thanks!
