An excerpt from "Showbiz Pa More": memorable ‘Private Conversations with Boy Abunda’ (2020 Updated)
DJ Jai Ho: Eto narequest ko na magusto na may nakachicka ka na mainterview ng mga pulitiko, mga pinakakontrobersyal na pangalan, dito sa interview ni Tito Boy, meron ka bang kinakatakutan ang nakakaharap mo, tito Boy?
Boy Abunda: Hindi takot, I'm very familiar with fear, hindi takot. As a matter of fact, I pray for jitters, nagsasabi, Panginoong Diyos, bigyan mo ako ng konti kaba kasi nagmemeasure hanggang saan ako? Kinatatakutan, meron akong dalawa na instances, isa, I remember being invited then Vice President of the Philippines Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, nagkaroon ng EDSA, that was EDSA 2, live kasi ang Private Conversations, ang Private Conversations ang galing mula sa ANC, naging ABS-CBN, nagpunta sa ANC.
Nang gabi ring 'yon, nagtipon at nagprotesta ang mga kontra-Erap sa EDSA shrine at inilunsad ang EDSA Dos.
Lahat pinagbibitiw si Estrada sa puwesto. Nag-atras din ng suporta ang pulisya at militar.
Enero 20, nanumpa bilang pangulo si Vice President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Sinugod ng taumbayan ang Malakanyang. Para hindi na mauwi sa karahasan, nilisan ni Estrada ang Palasyo.
The Pope visited the Philippines again in January 1995 in time for the 10th World Youth Day. Some 3 million people lined the streets to welcome John Paul II, who arrived on January 12, 1995.
On January 15, 1995, a Sunday, the Pope arrived at Malacañang Park aboard the Popemobile from the Apostolic Nunciature on Taft Avenue, but was forced to ride the presidential helicopter along with Cardinal Sin and Papal Nuncio Gian Vincenzo Moreni to get to Quirino Grandstand amid the huge crowd on the streets.
Biggest gathering
At past 10 in the morning, the Pope began the three-and-a-half-hour Mass that marked the closing of the 10th World Youth Day. Attended by ten million people, it was the biggest gathering so far in the Pontiff’s 16-year reign.
The Mass’ concelebrants included Sin, Cebu Archbishop Ricardo Cardinal Vidal, Vatican Secretary of State Angelo Cardinal Sodano and Eduardo Cardinal Pironio, head of the Pontifical Council of the Laity.
