Remembering Ninoy....

Image hosted by Photobucket.comIt was 22 years ago when former Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino was shot on the tarmac of the Manila International Airport (now known as the Ninoy Aquino Internation Airport in his honor) after returning from political asylum.

His death served as a catalyst for fueling the Filipinos' desire for freedom, justice and democracy.

He is now considered one of our national heroes. May his long departed soul find satisfaction in the fact that it was his death which inspired us as a nation to fight against oppression and injustice.

"The Filipino is worth dying for."

- Ninoy Aquino
