  2. In 1986, the first elected president of Philippines was Corazon Aquino. Corazon Aquino was born in 1933 into one of the richest clans in the Philippines, the powerful Cojuangcos of Tarlac Province.  Her life was that of a privileged, well-educated girl sent abroad to the Ravenhill Academy in Philadelphia, the Notre Dame Convent School in New York, and Mount St. Vincent College, also in New York. She studied mathematics and graduated with a degree in French in 1953, then returned to the Philippines to study law, but soon married the restless, rich scion of another prominent Tarlac family, Benigno ("Ninoy") Aquino, Jr. Benigno Aquino became a mayor, a governor, and a flamboyant senator, and he probably would have been elected president of the Philippines in 1973 had Marcos not suspended elections. http://www.seasite.niu.edu/Tagalog/Tagalog_Default_Files/Philippine_Culture/aquino_era.htm

  5. Philippine's National Animal is Carabao Carabaos are indigenous to Southeast Asia; as waves of migration into the Philippines occurred, the carabao were captured and domesticated. The carabao is considered as a national symbol of the Philippines. Also, the mascot of the Philippine Daily Inquirer is Guyito, a carabao. Carabaos are often used by farmers in the Philippines. It is one of the most important animals in the country specially in agriculture Adults weigh seven to eight hundred kilograms—almost 2,000 pounds—and have fairly long gray or black hair thinly covering their huge bodies. They have a tuft of hair on their forehead, and at the tip of their tail. Normally, they are silent, but they will give a trembling snort if they are surprised. Both males and females have massive horns. Since carabao have no sweat glands, they cool themselves by lying in waterholes or mud during the heat of the day. Mud, caked on to their bodies also protects them from bothersome insects. Carabao eat grass and other vegetation, feeding mainly in the cool of the mornings and evenings. In some places of the world carabao are used for milk just like a cow, or they may be slaughtered for their hide and their meat. They live to age 18 or 20 and have one calf each year. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carabao
