La religion catholique est arrivée dans l’archipel des Philippines avec les colons espagnols, il y a 500 ans. Elle a façonné la culture des Philippins et l’Eglise a joué un rôle influent dans la société notamment lors de la destitution du régime autoritaire du président Marcos en 1986. Depuis le retour de la démocratie, l’Eglise a de nombreux défis à relever : lutte contre la pauvreté qui n’est pas la priorité du gouvernement et ouverture vers l’Eglise de Chine.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – 1986/01/01: Cardinal Jaime Sin arrives at a Mass in a church in Manila. He became a supporter of Corazon (Cory) Aquino. Cardinal Sin was to play a key part in the ‘People’s Power’ revolution. When Ferdinand Marcos’s Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile and Vice Chief of Staff, Lt. General Fidel V. Ramos called on the Cardinal to help, he went live on Radio Veritas and asked the people to support ‘our two good friends’. The ‘People’s Power’ revolution was to culminate in the ouster of Marcos as President of the Philippines. On February 25th 1986, Marcos and the First Lady, Imelda fled the country with their family. He was never to return to the Philippines again. Cory Aquino became the new President with Doy Laurel sworn in as her Vice President..
