11 February - Evelio Javier Day
Evelio Bellaflor Javier (October 31, 1942 – February 11, 1986) was a Filipino politician. He served as governor of the province of Antique and was an opponent of the dictatorship of President Ferdinand Marcos. His assassination on February 11, 1986, was one of the causes of the People Power Revolution that overthrew Marcos. A staunch supporter of then-presidential candidate Corazon Aquino, he was shot on February 11, 1986, four days after the Snap Elections of 1986 were held but while the counting was continuing. Evelio Javier's brother, Exequiel Javier, served as congressman from 1987 to 1998 and from 2001 to 2010 and governor from 1998 to 2001, and 2010 to 2015.
