25 Pebrero 2026, Ika-40 Anibersaryo ng EDSA People Power Revolution
Sa kahabaan ng EDSA, nagtipon ang libo-libong Pilipino noong Pebrero 1986 upang magkaisa at tumindig laban sa rehimeng Marcos—isang mapayapang pagkilos bunga ng panalangin, tapang, at pag-asa para sa pagbabago.
Apatnapung taon na ang nakalilipas, nananatiling makabuluhan pa rin ang yugtong ito sa kasaysayan ng ating bansa. Ating gunitain ang diwa ng People Power Revolution sa pamamagitan ng ilang mga sulatin:
