CEBU, Philippines — Mga Sugboanon nakurat ug nasubo sa pagtaliwan ni kanhi presidente Benigno Noynoy Aquino III apan nakahinumdom pa gihapon sa mga maayong nabuhat sa kanhi pangulo bisan pa man sa mga nagsige og panaway sa iyang liderato. Gihulagway ni Cebu Vice Gov. Hilario Davide III si Aquino nga maoy nakapabalik sa pag salig sa publiko ngadto sa gobiyerno.
"When there was so much erosion of confidence in our public officials back in 2010 because of unabated corruption, P. Noy took the daunting task of restoring the Filipinos’ faith and trust in government by making those in power accountable for their actions," matud ni Davide.
Si Davide kinsa kaalyado ni Aquino ubos sa Liberal party nagkanayon nga nakugang siya human nasayran ang pagtaliwan niini kagahapong adlawa.
"He also stabilized the economy, expanded social programs and made meaningful health reforms. Most of all, the Aquino family never used the enormous power and influence of the presidency to enrich themselves," dugang ni Davide.
Gimando ni Cebu City Acting Mayor Michael Rama ang pagbutang sa half-mast sa mga Bandila sa siyudad isip pahasubo sa kamatayon ni Aquino.
Nagkanayon si Rama nga dili gyud niya malimtan ang kaayo ni Aquino nga misalig ug nitudlo niya nga tsirman sa Regional Development Council -7.
“I join the nation today in grieving the passing of former President Noynoy Aquino. People remember him for his presidency, for his and his family’s role in our history and the return of democracy. Former President Noynoy bannered in his personal mantra an important principle for us public servants, “kayo ang boss ko.” It is an important reminder to all of us in public service whom we serve. My sympathies to former President Noynoy’s family and his many supporters. May he rest in God’s loving peace,” si Cebu City Mayor Edgardo Labella namahayag sab sa iyang Facebook post.— Rowena Capistrano, Sanden J. Anadia/IBM (BANATNEWS)
