MANILA — The people will not forget the first People Power uprising.
This is the assertion of progressive groups as they commemorated the 38th year since the first People Power uprising on Sunday, Feb. 25, which toppled the late dictator and father and namesake of the current president Ferdinand Marcos Sr.
This year’s commemoration was not included in the list of special non-working holidays.
“They do not want to commemorate the EDSA People Power because this will remind them of the day that people the overthrew them from Malacañang,” said award-winning director and martial law survivor Joel Lamangan.
