Why low key EDSA celebration?

THE EAR - The Freeman

Small celebration. People are scratching their heads after the announcement of the Duterte administration that it will have a low-key celebration of the EDSA revolution. It is, after all, one of the greatest moments in Filipino history. Was it because it was a fed-up populace that finally rose up and won against an abusive government? Was it because the Duterte administration doesn't want to give the population any chance of rising up? 

Still majority support. According to an Ear source, maybe the administration just doesn't want any gathering that might remind people of how much power they actually have. But another observer disagreed, saying despite his faults the president still has the approval of majority of the Filipinos. "Basin wa lang gyud budget ang administrasyon," the observer said.
