Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III, 50, was officially sworn into office on Wednesday June 30, 2010 as the 15th Philippine President and the first bachelor President in Malacañang Palace.
Aquino delivered a 21-minute speech at Quirino Grandstand during the inauguration ceremony. In his inaugural address he said that his first step as President is to prevent corruption; to have honest leaders starting with himself and his cabinet and to uphold the trust given to him by the Filipino people.
During his speech he also recognized his father who was assassinated during the Ferdinand Marcos dictatorship and his late mother, former Philippine President, Corazon Aquino for bringing back democracy to the Filipino people and he vows to make a change in the government.
Remember, the martyrdom of his father Ninoy Aquino in his desire to bring back democracy paved the way to the presidency of his mother Corazon Aquino and to his presidency. Due to these special circumstances it is expected that he will try his best to be a good and honest President.
