President Corazon Cory Aquino's Speech on the Coup attempt on her

Further Information: http://filipinopresidency.multiply.com/
From 1986 to 1987, there were six plots to overthrow the government of Philippine President Corazon Aquino involving various members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. A significant number of the military participants in these attempts belonged to the Reform the Armed Forces Movement (RAM), while others were identified loyalists to former President Ferdinand Marcos, who had been deposed in February 1986. Two of the attempts — the November 1986 "God Save the Queen" plot and the July 1987 plot — were uncovered and quashed by authorities before they could be operationalized. Save for the August 1987 coup attempts, which left 53 people dead, the other plots were repelled with minimal or no violence.

An even more serious coup attempt would be staged against the Aquino government in December 1989. Following the failure of that coup, President Aquino established a Fact-Finding Commission headed by then-COMELEC Chairman Hilario Davide, Jr. to investigate and provide a full report on the series of coup attempts against her government. The report would become known as the Davide Commission Report.

Weakling. Like mother like son.

Cory Aquino is a hypocrite. She is not at all the exceptional person she portrayed she is. She is a very vindictive person. How can she be called "a symbol of democracy" when she did not even lift a finger to free their own farmers at Hacienda Luisita from eternal bondage from her greedy clan. She and her family are thieves living in luxury on the land that belongs to the farmers.
