It was confirmed early this morning by Senator Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III that the former President Cory Aquino passed away due to cardio-respiratory arrest.
She died at the age of 76 after losing from her long fight from colon cancer where she was confined in Makati Medical Hospital for almost a month.
The cold rainy weather made also the country gloomy. News and radio broadcasts shows some videos of her during her time as president.
Cory Aquino was the first female president of the Philippines and also Asia's first female president.
She might died physically but she will still remain alive in the hearts of the Filipinos and will inspire everyone.
We should all thank her for bringing up democracy in our country and for being a good leader even after her term.
Maraming Salamat at Paalam Tita Cory.
