Good evening to you, too! Call me She. Sorry ...Hi…<br /><br />Good evening to you, too! Call me She. Sorry I am not able to immediately reply. I hope this response is not too late.<br /><br />Here is my response to your questions:<br /><br />1 – None. I was so young then. My memories are still clear about the Edsa Revolution. But on that moment, I did not know what was going on. It was my father who took me to Edsa.<br />2 - I do not believe there was an immediate danger then. In fact, there was no tension in the air. What I saw was Filipinos in all walks of life gathered as one. Regardless of ones economic status in the society, people joined together against a dictator. <br />3- When it comes to experience, it was a momentous moment. It thought me the value of being a Filipino. But then, I learned that only after a number of years when I was already able to comprehend what really had happened on that faithful day.<br />4 – The non violent revolution is the main reason why there had been a change in the government.<br />5 – I felt pride. Proud to be a Filipino. And if I may say so, government is not really perfect. There are Filipino traits that are not really positive. Like manana habit, crab mentality and so on and so forth. I suppose no country is perfect. But that does not mean we should love our country less. <br /><br />It would be better if you mentioned your name and school though.<br />I hope I am able to help you with your query.Cens Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103710987785876448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2003804480343334733.post-9426531511702708352010-08-02T06:47:37.511-07:002010-08-02T06:47:37.511-07:00Goodevning Ms.Cen, i was searching about the Edsa ...Goodevning Ms.Cen, i was searching about the Edsa Revolution that took place on 1986, and people who were able to witness the event first hand. I am a 4th year international studies student and i was just wondering if you could kindly answer this simple questions for me: <br /><br />1. what is the impetus or the driving force that made you participate in the people power?<br />2. knowing the dangers that might occur, site your reason why you still pursued to join the event.<br />3. what is your experience and learning while you're on the event itself?<br />4. how did the non-violent way of revolutionizing imposed a great help to achieve the People Power success?<br />5. What did you feel after the People Power seccess?<br /><br />Thank you very much!:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2003804480343334733.post-4136147963856249812009-03-01T21:44:00.000-08:002009-03-01T21:44:00.000-08:00...To Leslie Ann.

I was there when there was the "kudeta" coup d' 'etat ba yun? ay sus, dinig talaga namin ang mga baril and everything. Kasi, sa EDSA talaga kami nakatira. But anyways, I wasn't really into politics and besides bagta pa kasi ako non, so I really didn't pay too much attention. I was there on the first Anniversary, lakad lang kami, may mga tugtog sa street, sarado ang buong Cubao. Yah, She, pareho na tayong oldies.. di lang ikaw, ako din. <BR/><BR/>Listening to my sister complain about how life is so hard in the Philippines, I can really tell that the country is not going to get better. Rich people are going to be richer and poor people are getting poorer. Corrupt individuals? well, yes, nothing you can do.. you do something, you will be dead the next day.

That seemed like a global knowledge as well!<BR/><BR/>malaki sana ang magagawa kung hindi corrupt ang gobyerno.it should be a combined effort..its people and the government. kailan mang yayari iyon? buntong hininga lang ang kaya kong isagot!<BR/><BR/>Thanks..kaya lang dito sa tin sa Pinas..kapag ang babae ay tumuntong ng 40..mararamdaman talaga sa paligid. Isa yata iyon sa paniniwalang pinoy!! Meron ngang biruan na sinabi sa akin ang isang kakilala" Ang lalaki daw parang alak..habang tumatagal lalong nadadagdagan ang value..pero ang babae..kapag tumuntong na ng 40..which is near menoposal period..latak na daw" ang sakit sa tenga kasi lumalabas ang macho mentality..skin deep ang basihan sa value ng babae..pero ganun yata talaga. i talked to one american and he was surprised that a 40 year old woman is already old. He said life starts at 40 and that is the peak of life. Siguro a matter of culture talaga.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comment and have a nice dayCens Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01103710987785876448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2003804480343334733.post-85716620308323624382009-02-23T23:17:00.000-08:002009-02-23T23:17:00.000-08:00Mommy She, I don't know if I can really remember t...Mommy She, I don't know if I can really remember the Edsa Revolution 1986 but what all I can say is that life is getting so dreadful due to economic situation.And most of the goverment officials sucks!(sorry for the term)but I do believe that if people will exert to make progess on their lives will help make our world a better place to everyone.<BR/><BR/>btw, Being 40 is young!!!^_^Clarissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05280675851124686388noreply@blogger.com
