Noynoy Aquino - a side note

I watched Noynoy's speech announcing his decision to run for presidency. I am not really a big fan of Noynoy. His father yes. I am going to really think it over before I finally decide if I will vote for him. I was for Roxas kse....maybe if Roxas runs for vice president...hehehehe

But let's not talk about that. I did a little bit of reading on Noynoy and I found this. I am not sure if this will convince you to vote for him or not but this is something nice to know. I got this from wikipedia.org

On August 28, 1987, eighteen months into the presidency of Cory Aquino, rebel soldiers led by Gregorio Honasan staged an unsuccessful coup attempt, attempting to siege MalacaƱang Palace. Aquino was two blocks from the palace when he came under fire. Three of his four security escorts were killed, and the last was wounded protecting him. Aquino himself was hit by five bullets, one of which is still embedded in his neck.

During the campaign, Aquino reached out to his former enemy, Senator Gregorio Honasan, supporting his application for bail. "I endorse Honasan's request for bail para parehas ang laban. I was hit by bullets from Honasan's men in the neck and hips but that's past now. The principle of my father was, ' Respect the rights even of your enemies.' Ito ang nagpatingkad ng demokrasya. Genuine reconciliation is democracy in action," Aquino told Job Tabada of Cebu Daily News on 5th March 2007.

Kaya pala parang there is something wrong with his head and hip movements...kanina sa TV sabi ko parang may arthritis siya....yon naman pala tinamaan sya ng bullet don..shox..sabi ko na e wag agad mag conclude buti nag research ako....
