THIS MONTH'S ISSUE - August 2008...

 
To gain by LOSING
  Twenty-five years have passed since
the death of Ninoy Aquino Jr. His
death on the tarmac clouded the hopes and dreams of many people who were following the Philippine political situation at that time. Prices were soaring high and protests spilling over on the streets of Manila. The nation was at a real crossroads. Then, in a gentle stroke, the people rallied behind Cardinal Sin and Cory Aquino in one of the finest non-violent revolutions in the history of mankind. Read More
