Emmanuel M. Hizon, a debt and public finance campaigner of the Freedom from Debt Coalition, provides a critical appreciation of President Cory Aquino as a symbol of democracy. In his article, he writes:

"...while the nation grieves for Aquino’s passing, let us remember and mourn the countless and nameless people who have been wronged, oppressed and in so many ways deprived because of decades of systemic neglect and elite rule which Aquino’s administration was a part of.

"Justice must be served and the privileged ones, the ruling class, must be held accountable even if it means revisiting old unhealed wounds and/or sullying reputations."
