In Imelda’s World…

Did you see GMA-7 reporter Tina Panganiban Perez’s interview with Imelda Marcos last night?

From that interview, we could conclude that in Imelda’s world, the following are inalienable truth:

  • Martial Law gave us not only freedom, justice, and democracy but also dignity and identity.
  • The dictator’s reign was peaceful.
  • Imelda was never extravagant.
  • Martial Law was one of the greatest periods in Philippine history.

On the other hand, these are fiction:

  • Tens of thousands of detractors of marcos were jailed, tortured and executed without due process. Human rights were violated.
  • The freedom of expression, including the freedom of the press was curtailed.
  • Ferdinand Marcos plundered between five and 10 billion dollars from the national coffers and left us in poverty.
  • The Marcos regime left huge debts that we are still paying until now.
  • Martial Law instituted a culture of lies and corruption.

I don’t see your profile, I don’t know hot to contact you…Wish I do. And yes, what you deemed as fiction is really fiction that has become truth in the administrations after his because they were merely envious that Marcos was able to make this nation great.

BTW, you have also read my friend Jaemark’s entry Never Again in his blog…ultraelectromagneticblog.blogspot.com.

sa totoo lang, sana pinanganak ako noon. kasi ngayon, parang mas mabigat ang problema na hinaharap ng Pilipinas dahil sa mga kurakot na tao sa gobyerno. heh.

Sa mundo ni Imelda

Anibersaryo kahapon ng Batas Militar. Kaugnay nito, ano kaya ang katotohanan at ano ang likhang isip sa mundo ni Imelda Marcos? Ganito raw, sabi ni Julian ng Piercing Pens.

Anu’t anuman, huwag sana tayong magkaroon ng collective amnesia.
