NO REASON TO CELEBRATE EDSA 1

A personal friend asked me if EDSA 1 should still be celebrated. Without thinking, I instantly replied ‘No, and no reason to.’ I stressed that life didn’t improve under Cory Aquino, contrary to what she and her puppets had tried to project.

For those who were not born yet or were still too young then, we suffered brownouts of up to12 hours several days a week for months under Cory. No major infrastructure project was started and completed under Cory’s presidency. There was a housing project near the entrance to the Coastal Road in Paranaque but this was NOT FINISHED until Cory stepped down from the presidency. And if her fanatics will cite the flyovers, these were started only when her term was nearing its end. The only infrastructure-related act Cory did was put Ninoy Aquino’s name before that of the international airport and the Parks and Wildlife in Quezon City. Anybody correct me if I’m wrong in any of these.

Almost immediately after she became president, Cory ORDERED THE RELEASE of Communist Party of the Philippines Chairman Jose Ma. Sison and other top Communist rebel leaders, TOTALLY IGNORING the countless lives of soldiers who died trying to capture and stop him and his legions from their mass killings and other DEVILISH DEEDS.

I remember Cory promising after she became president that Hacienda Luisita would be distributed to its tenant farmers. As we all know, this never happened until her presidency ended. Cory promised that the price of galunggong will be drastically reduced once she becomes president. I can’t remember the exact amount but eventually, galunggong because almost as expensive as pork.

The brains behind the Mendiola Massacre of protesting farmers was NEVER REVEALED during Cory’s term. A ship full of NFA rice sunk (I can’t recall where and when). But then NFA Administrator Emil Ong was NEVER HELD ACCOUNTABLE by Cory. Instead, she PROMOTED him to Presidential Adviser on Food. There’s a lot more.

After I finished explaining, my friend readily replied: “NO REASON, INDEED, TO CELBERATE.” 30
