MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The Quezon City Government has decided to move the statue of Ninoy Aquino which used to be  located  on Timog Avenue, as a way to ease traffic in the area.

The original plan was to transfer the statue to 25 Times Street, the location of the Aquino family home in Quezon City.

But upon hearing of the plan, President Rodrigo Dutetre ordered that the statue be transferred instead to the Libingan ng mga Bayani, across from the grave of President Ferdinand E. Marcos,

Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo said that Duterte’s decision could finally pave the way for national unity between  families and supporters of the Marcoses and Aquinos.
