The Philippine’s 15th President
Congratulations to our new president Benigno Simeon Aquino III! He preferred to be called PNOY because according to him it is closer to the people and to use BSA as his initial to commemorate his father. I just watched his inauguration together with Vice President Jejomar C. Binay. Pnoy is the 15th president of the Philippines and his mom is the 11th. This is also a history to be noted, mother and son in presidency. Today is a special holiday and we ought to watch the reason of this holiday. I was so relaxed watching the program over GMA Network sitting on a patio furniture while eating my lunch. Sean was by my side and I tried to explain in his wee little mind what was going on. Guess he understood. 
International star Charice Pempengco sang the National Anthem as the program starts. I was teary eyed while listening to her golden voice (don’t know why). It is nice to saw Pnoy riding in his official car with plate no. 1, stepping for the first time in Malacañang Palace as the head of the nation, heading the oath taking of the local and national officials, and held the first cabinet meeting. I’m sure majority of Filipinos all over the world witnessed the said event and hoping for changes. We are hoping that the new President will make the Philippine progress for the next 6 years. To you President Aquino… May the good Lord bless you and give you the best of health and wisdom to rule our beloved country, the Philippines. How about you, how do you picture the Philippines under his administration?
