A former senator, 50, Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III is the 15th President of the Republic of the Philippines. Like GMA (former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo), P-Noy, as what he would like to be called, was also born of a parent that was a former president, the late Corazon Aquino. And so, many hope that this man is the one to change everything. So, we'll see.
I never liked Noynoy even before. I didn't care of him when he was a senator. I don't like the way he speaks, the way he walks, his baldy head, and all. I don't know. Plus the fact that he holds grudge from the past, I hate it. I never liked his idea of running as a president, nor didn't I vote for him as a president. But then, I'm not pessimistic on his governance. Like most of my fellow Filipinos, I am seeing a brighter future for my country with him leading it.
A lot of people, if not all, hated GMA, but they have to see the bright side as well! I don't love GMA, but I don't hate her either. I think she was a good leader of our country. (Or, at least, she tried) It's not final goodbyes to Gloria, however. The former president ran as a Congresswoman of a district in her province, and won! After the formal turnover of the power to P-Noy earlier, GMA headed to San Fernando City to take her oath.
