So screamed the headlines at Philstar dot com and reported by Joanne Rae Ramirez (The Philippine Star) Updated June 20, 2010 12:00 AM.
On June 30th, President-elect, Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III will be sworn into Office by Associate Justice Conchita Carpio-Morales of the Supreme Court. He publicly avows “he wouldn’t let him (his late father) down in unfinished quest for true democracy in the Philippines.”
Bravo – Clap! clap! clap!
More time will tell on how he will pursue this quest and not so much from a personal motive not to let his father down, but much more expediently for the emancipation of all Filipino fathers, mothers and children from the clutches of poverty, greed, corruption, cronyism and organized crime throughout the land.
More time will tell whether Noynoy will be able to surpass not only the hopes of the Filipino populace, but even surpass his own dream and fortitude to lead his countrymen into the dawn of a brave new Phillippines.
More time will tell when as President, whether he will be able to preside as an able Statesman, effective with programs and political clout to drive a collective effort and steer the country from political unrest and uncertainty, the latter which for several decades has undermined the Philippines into protracted retrogression.
Yes, only time will tell and not avowals.
Very well said, Windy. One year is enough time for him to show what he’s got. The Filipino people is expecting so much from him, being elected as the result of Automation

Well Lainy,
Though I think Noynoy is too “soft” but then again, we can never tell.
Let’s hope that he is guided by Providence to do the right thing and at the right time.
