Benigno S. Aquino Jr. was the leading opponent of President Ferdinand Marcos. Ninoy would have been president had Marcos not declared martial law and forced him into exile in the US. Even as family and friends who were worried over his safety discouraged him from returning home, Ninoy came back on August 21, 1983, and was assassinated. His killing struck a chord in the consciousness of Filipinos and became one of the pivotal points that led to history turning with the 1986 People Power Revolution. I encourage people to research a little more about Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino.
