Remembering FVR: statesman, peacemaker, patriot MBOpinions READ:

The nation mourns the passing of the country’s 12th president, certainly one of our greatest, dearly loved and admired not only for his contribution in uplifting the country, but, most of all, for reviving the pride and morale of the Filipino people.

He transformed the military into a peace-making force. It was during his time and the few years after his term that the country experienced remarkable development at many fronts. It was with this creative energy and vision that he had transformed the country into coming close to a tiger economy after being perceived as the “sick man of Asia” for many years.

When I was appointed by President Cory as one of the 48 members of the 1986 Constitutional Commission, he sent me a note of congratulation. It was also he who handed me the Award of Recognition for my role in the cooperative movement. I am grateful likewise for his having appointed me to the National Centennial of the Philippines chaired by the late Vice-President Doy Laurel.
