EMBASSY TO CLOSE ON 21 AUGUST 2014 FOR NINOY AQUINO DAY

Ninoy Aquino Day is a national non-working holiday in the Philippines observed annually on August 21, commemorating the assassination of former Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr. He was the husband of Corazon "Cory" Aquino, who was later to become Philippine President, and the father of the current president, Benigno S. Aquino III. Ninoy and Cory Aquino are treated as two of the heroes of democracy in the country. His assassination led to the downfall of Ferdinand Marcos on February 25, 1986, through the People Power Revolution, which catapulted his widow to the presidency. In 2004, the commemoration ceremony for the holiday was held and events were attended by then President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and former president and Korean War veteran Fidel V. Ramos. The next working day at the Embassy is Sunday, 24 August 2014.
