"A New And Better Way" English version of Handog ng Pilipino sa Mundo | People Power Revolution Song

"Handog ng Pilipino sa Mundo" (lit. '"The Gift of the Filipinos to the World"'), released in English as "A New and Better Way-The People's Anthem," is a 1986 song recorded in Filipino by a supergroup composed of 15 Filipino artists. The song serves to commemorate the bloodless People Power Revolution which ended President Ferdinand Marcos's 20-year rule, as well as a benefit single for the rehabilitation of Radio Veritas, a public affairs radio station instrumental in the revolution. The lyrics of the song are inscribed on a wall of Our Lady of EDSA Shrine, the center of the revolution.
Ramon Chuaying, head of WEA Records (now Universal Records), commissioned singer-songwriter Jim Paredes of APO Hiking Society to write a song inspired by the People Power Revolution[1] for the company's upcoming compilation album of patriotic songs. Paredes wrote the song in three minutes, with no revisions. The song eventually became its carrier single.[2][3] The song was then performed by artists who became actively involved during the People Power Revolution. An English version of this song was also made entitled "A New and Better Way - The People's Anthem", released in Australia and the United Kingdom. Both the original and English version were released as singles, with the proceeds to be donated for the rehabilitation of DZRV, whose main transmitter was destroyed by Marcos' troops while covering the events of the EDSA Revolution.[1]
The English version of the hit single includes a letter from Manila Archbishop Jaime Cardinal Sin, who played a significant role in the People Power Revolution through Radio Veritas.[1]
A music video was also made for the song made by director Mike de Leon. Leaders featured included senators Jose W. Diokno, Rene Saguisag, Butz Aquino, Lorenzo Tañada, and Corazon Aquino with Doy Laurel. Kris Aquino, then a teen, appeared in the music video with the artists that performed. National heroes since the Spanish period and prominent scenes from the revolution were also featured.[3] The video was removed by censors shortly after it aired in television as the video containing crowds battering pictures of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos might be "too strong" to the public.[4] The music video was revived decades later through the Filipino TV channel Myx, uploaded on KZbin by Jim Paredes, and a shorter edit on Vimeo by Mike de Leon, using less footage of the singers and focusing more on the scenes of the revolution.

I miss the old PDP-Laban. Currently, it is the shell of its former self, now allying with tyrants, from fighting against the dictatorship.

[@NewRepublicMapper]

Sayang lang talaga itong PDP-LABAN, sampal sa mukha kay Nene Pimentel yung ginawa ni Cusi

[@revinhatol]

And the old UNIDO.

[@dannsantos530]

@@revinhatol Ah yes, UNIDO was revived by a Laurel clan member. Currently, it is based in CALABARZON. The baddest part is that it supported UniTeam last election. Very ironic.

Old PDP Laban was more based
