Deskripsi

DemokrasyaTV presents an address by President Corazon C. Aquino, President of the Republic of the Philippines, at the launching of the First Earth Run in the Philippines on 16 November 1986. The event was held at the historic Quirino Grandstand in Manila, Philippines. The First Earth Run was a remarkable worldwide event and celebration that took place in 1986. The torch carried by the relay runners began its journey at the United Nations on 16 September 1986, lit from a flame created in a sunrise ceremony by native Americans. During the next 86 days, 57 countries, including the Philippines, were involved in this global relay. Fifteen runners from the major geo-political regions of the world ran with the torch in teams of four, while millions of people took part in ceremonies connected with the coming of the runners. The teams were led by David Gershon and Gail Straub, long distance runners and founders of this event. #NinoyAquino #CoryAquino #Philippines #philippinehistory #historicalvideos #historicalspeeches
