NAIA BET IBALIK SA MANILA INT’L AIRPORT

Isa pang panukala ang inihain sa House of Representatives para palitan ang pangalan ng Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).

Sa House Bill 1253, sinabi ni Duterte Youth party-list Rep. Drixie Mae Cardema, hindi dapat pinupulitika ang pangalan ng international gateway. “Our nation’s capital is named Manila, therefore our country’s international gateway to the world must be known as the Manila International Airport (MIA) as a sense of pride for our country’s capital and for foreigners to easily locate our main gateway,” saad ni Cardema.

Nabanggit ni Cardema na may ‘koneksyon’ sa anti-Marcos leader ang pagpapalit ng pangalan ng NAIA sa ilalim ng Republic Act 6639 noong Disyembre 10, 1987.

Si Ninoy Aquino, ang yumaong asawa ng noo’y Pangulong President Corazon C. Aquino.
