People Power Day in the Philippines

People Power Day in the Philippines is held on February 25. This event in the third decade of the month February is annual.
“People Power Revolution” is also tagged as the “EDSA Revolution,” “Yellow Revolution,” “Bloodless Revolution” and “1986 Philippine Revolution.” Despite the presence of tank-riding soldiers and big guns, not a single shot was fired. Thus, People Power Revolution was the first nonviolent, bloodless revolution that ever took place. Corazon Aquino was inaugurated as the 11th president of the Philippines on February 25, 1986 at Sampaguita Hall (Now Kalayaan Hall).
