Dear Mr. President Mayor

25 February 2017 – Today we mark the 31st anniversary of a truly historic and peaceful People Power Revolution that earned global recognition and awe. It was a genuine revolution because it was the single event that completed a people’s long journey back to democracy from a dictatorship. It brought down a failed political system and its failed promises. It became the start of the building and rebuilding of institutions that found solid foundations in a new Constitution that gave power back to the people, put in place safeguards that said “never again” to martial law, and provided a framework for social justice and peace.
