    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

    Book Preview: #1 On Feb. 25, 1986, President Corazon Cojuangco Aquino was sworn in as the 11th President of the Philippines, in defiance of President Ferdinand Marcos, who had held a similar ceremony in Malacañang. She promised to restore unity, genuine reconciliation, and democratic space. Instead, she allowed a repetition of a strongman rule and an era of hatred, vengeance, and disunity that lasted beyond her term.

    #2 The Aquino government, from 1986 to 1991, spent more than P1. 1 trillion. Of this enormous amount, Congress received a total appropriation of only P4. 4 billion. The legislature had a total appropriation of only P1. 23 billion.

    #3 The key complaints of the citizenry against the government were profligacy, favoritism, nepotism, cronyism, and extravagance. The president, who was also the commander in chief, was responsible for maintaining peace and order.
