[NinoyAquinoTV]

Always a pleasure! ;-)

Well for me, Viel is the most beautiful of the Aquino daughters...followed by Ballsy, Kris and Pinky. If Noynoy's a woman, she's dead last! Hehehe =P

i think i read somewhere from old magazines when I was little, that VIEL was Sen. Ninoy's favorite daughter, that was why he was her protector and he called her "little princess" in all the letters to his children that I read in the internet. for that reason, it was VIEL's name that i remember most among the 3 sisters of Kris.

@nocber I agree with what you said. Kung hindi dahil sa mga sakripisyo nina Ninoy at Cory, hindi natin nae-enjoy ang kalayaan at demokrasya na tinatamasa natin ngayon! That fact alone is enough for me...and we should always be thankful for this freedom we're enjoying.

[nocber]

This made me cry. I can never thank the Aquino family enough for what they've done for the Filipino people.

Just to share my thoughts on some of the comments here, I think Ballsy is the strongest of the siblings. I feel it in her quiet ways. She never has to do or say anything to prove this. She just is a graceful strength. And to me there is no mistaking this lady when pushed to a corner will know what to do.

1m6 favor naman share mo naman sakin ung letter for viel im so curiuos about it i read the 3 letters but not the letter for viel hope u reply... thank you

[annecy6]

i can't hold back my tears when i read Sen. Ninoy's letter to Ballsy, having experienced celebrating my 18th birthday without my beloved dad at my side =( ... anyway, Sen. Ninoy's letter to his children only shows how kind of a father he is/was.

[toffee0618]

can you please share the letter that Ninoy wrote for Viel? I was able to read the 3 letters to the other kids but not for Viel..

[weluvucory]

talaga san mo nabasa paki share naman dito sa youtube pls....

[chriszabala]

Mas touching yung letter nya kay Ms, Viel. I have the privilege to read it. She happens to be my former boss.

[frugul101]

To me Ballsy and Kris is the pretty one, but I like the most is Ballsy soft-spoken, educated and kind

[frugul101]

I've read his letters to Ballsy, Noynoy and Pinky but never to Viel, I was still looking for his letter to Viel but couldn't find. I cried the most when I started reading his letter to Ballsy, it so sad tale to a debutant that your dad is in prison, she called Pinky his "doublemommie" the word that makes me laugh but very good letters.
