One of the first lessons I learned in public office, is that as President, one is expected to lose one’s sense of humor. Or at least, in public. While in office, I have to learn to joke in private and to treat other people’s comments occasionally as jokes. Now that I will soon become one of you, I might as well allow for a smooth transition back to my sense of humor.

8. How the Speech of Corazon Aquino before the US Congress on September 1986 inspired the Filipino people of todays’ generation?
In burying Ninoy, a whole nation honored him by that brave and selfless act of giving honor to a nation in shame recovered its own. A country that had lost faith in its future, founded in a faithless and brazen act of murder. So, in giving we receive, in losing we find, and out of defeat we snatched our victory. For the nation, Ninoy became the pleasing sacrifice that answered their prayers for freedom.
For myself and our children, Ninoy was a loving husband and father. His loss, three times in our lives was always a deep and painful one. Fourteen years ago this month, was the first time we lost him. A president-turned-dictator and traitor to his oath, suspended the constitution and shutdown the Congress that was much like this one before which I'm honored to speak. He detained my husband along with thousands of others - Senators, publishers, and anyone who had spoken up for the democracy as its end drew near. But for Ninoy, a long and cruel ordeal was reserved. The dictator already knew that Ninoy was not a body merely to be imprisoned but a spirit he must break. For even as the dictatorship demolished one-by-one; the institutions of democracy, the press, the congress, the independence of a judiciary, the protection of the Bill of Rights, Ninoy kept their spirit alive in himself.

9. Identify five (5) points highlighted by President Corazon Aquino in her speech before the U.S. congress on September 18, 1986. Explain their significant.
President Corazon Aquino's address was in part anti-Marcos propaganda, an appeal for pity from the audience, in part a request for assistance from the United States for the alleged damage caused by her predecessor, and in part appealing to the American audience. But specifics are given below:
1. Regarding the anti-Marcos section, she described Marcos as a dictator. That Marcos violated Philippine democracy and imprisoned thousands of individuals.
2. To elicit sympathy from her audience, she recounted the occurrence that transpired when she went to the Philippines to bury her killed husband, former senator Benigno Aquino, Jr., at the Manila International Airport. She attempted to convince her American audience that she was a bereaved widow. (Her husband should not have returned following Marcos's warning. After recovering from his heart surgery in Texas, he was scheduled to return to the Philippines, but instead, he remained and stayed for two years. He even left the Philippines to meet with anti-Marcos forces and accepted a fellowship at an American university. Finally, when Marcos became very ill in 1983, he decided to return.
3. Regarding her request for assistance from the United States, she spoke of the country's large foreign debt and pleaded for compassion from foreign creditors, particularly the IMF-World Bank. (She asserted that the loans from foreign creditors were given to thieves and corrupt officials but offered no evidence)
4. The other point was that the United States spent much money attempting to preserve democracy. Yet, simultaneously, the Philippines is a recovering democracy emerging from the horror of tyranny. She hinted that the United States should help the Philippines rebuild as a democracy. (How was that when, upon seizing power in 1986, she fired all elected legislators and municipal government officials?)
5. Finally, she called on the United States to support the Philippines, claiming that a new era had begun (what occurred was the restoration of the pre-1972 political elite's dominance over the nation's politics and economy).
The speech ended magnificently. This explanation is a component of Philippine History. It may be true, but we must determine why it is described there.

10. what is the purpose of the Corazon Aquino in her speech at the National Bible Congress?
Answer:
She was the first female president of the Philippines. As president, Aquino oversaw the drafting of the 1987 Constitution, which limited the powers of the Presidency and re-established the bicameral Congress, successfully removing the previous dictatorial government structure.

Three years ago, I left America in grief to bury my husband, Ninoy Aquino. I thought I had left it also to lay to rest his restless dream of Philippine freedom. Today, I have returned as the president of a free people.

For the nation, Ninoy became the pleasing sacrifice that answered their prayers for freedom. For myself and our children, Ninoy was a loving husband and father. His loss, three times in our lives, was always a deep and painful one.
Fourteen years ago this month was the first time we lost him. A president-turned-dictator, and traitor to his oath, suspended the Constitution and shut down the Congress that was much like this one before which I am honored to speak. He detained my husband along with thousands of others – senators, publishers and anyone who had spoken up for the democracy as its end drew near. But for Ninoy, a long and cruel ordeal was reserved. The dictator already knew that Ninoy was not a body merely to be imprisoned but a spirit he must break. For even as the dictatorship demolished one by one the institutions of democracy – the press, the Congress, the independence of the judiciary, the protection of the Bill of Rights – Ninoy kept their spirit alive in himself.
The government sought to break him by indignities and terror. They locked him up in a tiny, nearly airless cell in a military camp in the north. They stripped him naked and held the threat of sudden midnight execution over his head. Ninoy held up manfully–all of it. I barely did as well. For 43 days, the authorities would not tell me what had happened to him. This was the first time my children and I felt we had lost him.
When that didn’t work, they put him on trial for subversion, murder and a host of other crimes before a military commission. Ninoy challenged its authority and went on a fast. If he survived it, then, he felt, God intended him for another fate. We had lost him again. For nothing would hold him back from his determination to see his fast through to the end. He stopped only when it dawned on him that the government would keep his body alive after the fast had destroyed his brain. And so, with barely any life in his body, he called off the fast on the fortieth day. God meant him for other things, he felt. He did not know that an early death would still be his fate, that only the timing was wrong.
At any time during his long ordeal, Ninoy could have made a separate peace with the dictatorship, as so many of his countrymen had done. But the spirit of democracy that inheres in our race and animates this chamber could not be allowed to die. He held out, in the loneliness of his cell and the frustration of exile, the democratic alternative to the insatiable greed and mindless cruelty of the right and the purging holocaust of the left.
And then, we lost him, irrevocably and more painfully than in the past. The news came to us in Boston. It had to be after the three happiest years of our lives together. But his death was my country’s resurrection in the courage and faith by which alone they could be free again. The dictator had called him a nobody. Two million people threw aside their passivity and escorted him to his grave. And so began the revolution that has brought me to democracy’s most famous home, the Congress of the United States.
The task had fallen on my shoulders to continue offering the democratic alternative to our people.
Archibald Macleish had said that democracy must be defended by arms when it is attacked by arms and by truth when it is attacked by lies. He failed to say how it shall be won.
I held fast to Ninoy’s conviction that it must be by the ways of democracy. I held out for participation in the 1984 election the dictatorship called, even if I knew it would be rigged. I was warned by the lawyers of the opposition that I ran the grave risk of legitimizing the foregone results of elections that were clearly going to be fraudulent. But I was not fighting for lawyers but for the people in whose intelligence I had implicit faith. By the exercise of democracy, even in a dictatorship, they would be prepared for democracy when it came. And then, also, it was the only way I knew by which we could measure our power even in the terms dictated by the dictatorship.

A Short Analysis on Speech of President Corazon Aquino during the Joint Session of the U.S. Congress, September 18, 1986
Jewish Talmud reminds us that, to save one life is to save humanity (Sanhedrin 37a). Cory Aquino’s speech somehow has parallelism to the Jewish Talmud, because the EDSA bloodless revolution saves millions of lives from the tyranny of Ferdinand Marcos. President Marcos consentedbloodless revolution saves millions of lives from the tyranny of Ferdinand Marcos. President Marcos consented the bloodshed of many people by declaring Martial law “by virtue of Proclamation No. 1081”, which causes multiple ‘Human Rights’ violations. On the other hand, Cory Aquino responded to this in her presidency by empowering the Bill of Rights in the 1987 Constitution.
Cory Aquino in her speech tries to exemplify the nexus of catastrophic events in the Philippines during the declaration of martial law. Aquino first instigated Marcos’s crimes should be unveiled for the public. Aquino did not specify Marcos’ crimes but many researchers and scholars provided evidence of the political unrest during the martial law. According to Pantoja (2014),
The Marcos regime was also responsible for 3,257 murders, 35,000 torture cases, and 70,000 incarcerations, according to members of Akbayan party-list group, of whom many suffered under the dictatorship
•
Furthermore, the pride of Cory Aquino to present in the Congress of America that the Philippines attained its democracy on its own. Yet, Aquino tries to make an impression that she needs America’s help for sustaining the democracy which has reigned again. Tyranny is not the dream of every Filipino. They would fight with full of might for the Philippines’ hidden light. Similarly, Aquino added,
Wherever I went in the campaign, slum area or impoverished village, they came to me with one cry: democracy! Not food, although they clearly needed it, but democracy. Not work, although they surely wanted it, but democracy. Not money, for they gave what little they had to my campaign. They didn’t expect me to work a miracle that would instantly put food into their mouths, clothes on their back, education in their children, and work that will put dignity in their lives.
In a nutshell, the struggling Philippines despite its despair and political unrest will surely prosper, for all the sacrifices are rendered not for selfishness but for the common good. The Talmud speaks aloud when the bloodless revolution drove Marcos from his oppressive office. The Filipinos save many lives for driving Marcos away, and Cory Aquino ought to restore what was being lost – the Filipino’s dignity, by strengthening the Bill of Rights which is evident until the present day.

AQUINO’S SPEECH BEFORE THE JOINT SESSION OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS
On September 18, 1986, almost seven months after she became the eleventh President of the Philippine Republic, Maria Corazon “Cory” Cojuango Aquino delivered a speech before the joint session of the United States Congress in Washington DC.
Cory was the widow of the late Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino, Jr., the youngest Governor to be elected in the Philippines and the youngest member of the Philippine Senate during that time.
With his death brought by his opposition to the political views of then-dictator President Ferdinand E. Marcos, Cory continued his legacy and campaigned against the violence experienced by the Filipinos and their homelessness in their own country.
Encouraged by the revolution to run as President to challenge Marcos and keep on advocating the beliefs and principles his husband had started, Cory became the first Filipina to be sworn in the highest position of the Philippine government.
In her speech before the US Congress, Cory shared her experiences and sorrow for losing a loving husband and a good father to her family. She provided a brief narration of how Marcos suspended the Philippine Constitution and shut down the Congress, which eventually led to Ninoy’s exile and death, highlighting the cruelty he experienced at the hands of the military and the dictator.
From this, she detailed how the task to free the Filipinos and fight for democracy fell into her shoulders. She mentioned how she personally experienced the corruption of the Commission on Elections and praised the unity and courage of the people in times of oppression.
As the new President of the country, she went over some of her plans to restore the government first by reinstituting and amending the Philippine Constitution, as well as to start reintegration programs for the healing of the different localities in the country.
She also acknowledged the 26 billion-dollar debt acquired by the Marcos regime, managed to create negotiations to be able to gradually pay for it on behalf of the previous administration, and lodged an appeal from the foreigners for further assistance.
As her speech neared its end, she recognized and thanked the efforts of the American people to help achieve the democracy the Filipino people have fought for. Completed with the assistance of Teodoro Lopez Locsin, Jr., Cory Aquino’s speech serves as a primary account of the Martial Law era in the Philippines.
In this historical disquisition, Cory spoke for all those who were victimized by the Marcos dictatorship, recounting how the death of her husband sparked the first People Power Revolution with Filipinos crying out for democracy and freedom from tyrants of the country.
The text reflects the social and political situation of the Philippines during that time and accounts for the first peaceful revolution in national history. It carries the grief of the people, which waged the war against the evils of oppression as the Filipino people rally for the cause of freedom.
Such anguish turned into power which led to the nation’s greatest victory, the abolishment of a dictatorial government, giving way to true liberty, the upliftment of human rights, and the protection of the welfare of the Filipinos. Cory became a symbol of democracy which empowered a politically disenfranchised people.
I find it extremely exciting the fact that democracy and freedom mattered to the Filipinos more than their socioeconomic situation. The people had strong values and beliefs that they would not let oppressors abuse their rights and privileges as citizens of the country.
The power of a peaceful protest is also rewarding and motivating, which inspires me to take good care of and give importance to the democracy I am enjoying right now.
