Ninoy Aquino did absolutely nothing of historic worth for the country, except talk his ass off. And catch a bullet. That’s right folks. He got capped, because he didn’t know when to shut up!
NINOY WAS CONVICTED
On the evening of November 25, 1977, the tribunal convicted Ninoy for subversion, murder and illegal possession of firearms and to die by musketry. Since the penalty was death, the decision had to be affirmed by the Supreme Court. The high court affirmed the death penalty.
NINOY A COMMUNIST
He also used Communist support to finance his campaign against Marcos. Thus, he proved to be a political hypocrite. He never once offered any economic platforms, nor anything that could have pointed the Philippine nation in a direction along the lines of the other Asian economic tigers of the time. Instead, he used his senatorial position to attack and castigate president Marcos for the formers hard line stance against the growing communist threat in the late 1960’s. Rather than proposing stronger democratic institutions at a time when many communists groups were being established. And China was actively supporting a number of leftist organizations within the country.
NINOY SOLD SABAH TO MALAYSIA
Former senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. also had promised Malaysia in 1983 that the Philippines would drop its claim over Sabah in exchange for its support in the move to oust strongman Ferdinand Marcos, a former foreign affairs official revealed.
Dorado said there were no official records of the supposed meeting between Aquino and Mahathir, but said he “became privy to this bit of intelligence” from former ambassador and retired general Rafael Ileto.
“General Ileto indirectly confirmed that Ninoy Aquino asked for help from Mahathir in exchange for dropping the Sabah claim when he gains power,” Dorado said.
Hermes Dorado said Ileto was the person assigned to monitor Aquino’s movement on his journey back to Manila.
According to Dorado, the clearest proof of Ninoy’s supposed pledge to Malaysia will be found in the 1987 Constitution, which was written during the presidency of his widow Corazon Aquino.
Dorado said the 1987 Constitution amended the first article of the 1973 Constitution and removed the phrase, “and all other territories belonging to the Philippines by historic right or legal title.”
NINOY AQUINO DONE NOTHING
Ninoy made no efforts towards actually molding something for the betterment of the nation. Here is a short list of what he could have done. But didn’t:
- He never created any type charity works. Or special projects.
- He never gave a scholarship to any school children.
- He never had any popular projects to support the underprivileged.
- He never made a single contribution to either the local or national infrastructure.
- He never did anything to boost the the economy.
- He never gave any impression he had vision for the future.
- He simply capitalized on the stubborn nature of then-president Marcos. Yet, never once, did he speak publicly in front of throngs of people. Only on the floor of the Senate.
