unveiling of the monument and wreath laying ceremony.
Mayor EdSa highlighted that Ninoy’s life itself
was his greatest contribution to the country for it served as a way to restore freedom
and democary.
“Tayo ngayon ay nagtipon-tipon upang sariwain
ang kabayanihan ni Ninoy at ipaabot sa bawat isa sa atin, lalo na sa mga
kabataan, ang tunay na diwa nito. Kung walang nakaraan, wala tayong
paroroonan,” he added.
For his part, Senator Bam thanked the local
government and the Fernandinos for remembering his uncle. He even said that the
rain seems to be a sign from Ninoy in heaven.
“We’re happy na sa panahon natin ngayon ay may
ala-ala pa rin kay Ninoy Aquino. Medyo matagal na pero sabi ko nga maganda na
naaalala natin na may mga taong nagsakripisyo para sa ating bayan,” he added.
The senator also hoped that Ninoy’s bravery and
sacrifices will serve as inspiration to the Filipino people in order to face
the current challenges and work towards the betterment of our country.
“Sa aming mga lingkod bayan, maganda (syang)
example upang siguraduhin na lahat ng ginagawa namin ay para talaga sa bayan.
For the people, maganda na maalala na may lingkod bayan tayo na handang ibigay
ang lahat para sa inang bayan,” Senator Bam explained.
