AMELITA RAMOS

Prior to Amelita Ramos, most other Filipino first ladies remained housewives. Mrs Ramos raised some eyebrows when, upon the election of her husband as president, she refused to give up her job as the registrar of a prominent Manila high school.

Amelita Ramos was a particularly visible advocate of the environment and of sports. She was most associated with the sport of badminton, and served as the president of the Philippine Badminton Association.
