Philippine President Corazon Aquino will meet with President Reagan in Washington on Sept. 17, officials there and in Manila announced. It will be their first meeting since Aquino took office in February after the ouster of former President Ferdinand E. Marcos. The Philippine president said in a television interview that she will seek more assistance from the United States and try to secure more liberal terms from banks on the country’s $26-billion foreign debt. Aquino attended college in the United States and lived in Massachusetts for three years with her husband, Benigno S. Aquino Jr., before he ended his self-exile and returned to Manila, where he was assassinated Aug. 21, 1983.
