26 years after EDSA...

i am a filipino, probably a fan of the marcoses. All what bong bong marcos is true. Since his father was removed in his position, the philippines decline. I think bong bong marcos is only waiting for the right time to continue what his father starts. I think, may filipinos still believe that the marcoses has still the power and the intelligence to make philippines stand up from others. Philippines became a rich country in the past, and still will be back again soon. I don't like really the aquinos..!

I've just read the article and I'm proud to say that I now know who I will vote for come 2016 elections. Bongbong is right, and if you think about it, Ferdinand Marcos did an excellent job in running the country. Second in Japan?! Wow! that's really something, but look where we are now? Shame on the presidents after Marcos.

I can barely remember the time when Marcos was still a president. So many of my teachers then were pro-Marcos because they liked the way he run the country. People had made him looked bad after he was removed from power, but presidents after him were not able to do even half of his achievements, I think. They were only good in making promises Hopefully, PNoy will still be able to accomplish so many good things for the country (aside from finding a suitable first lady)

I grew up way past EDSA and in consequence, I grew in the notion that Cory and her allies are the good guys and Narcoses were the human epitome of evil. However, 26 after that historic event and many administrations later, there are still some avenues tat are lacking. Avenues that were the concurrences before and still concerns now. as if nothing changed except the lifestyle and the attitude of the people. What Marcos Jr. asked were legitimate questions. We need some sort of measuring scale whether or not, these issues are being addressed and steps or actions are taken to resolve them. it is not a way of pointing fingers but it is a reality check. I hope that some people will see beyond partisan lines and cooperate together to bring change. One party alone cannot do that colossal task. If we aim for the same positive change, why not join forces and accomplish the goal? I believe the revolution has ended a long time ago. It's time to build times for the better.

I was born in 1986, but in November, so I technically was not born during "EDSA 1" But that is just the past, what we should focus on is how to improve our country. e should start from ourselves and obey the laws. And most importantly we should not tolerate corruption even how small kind of corruption that is.

Some part of what Bongbong Marcos said was simply true. This may be quite difficult to accept for the Aquino fans but we are rapidly going on a decline. During the Marcos regime, life was easier. Rice was cheap because we did not rely on the imported rice due to the Masagana 99. Prices were effectively controlled including that of transportation and fuel. The only problem was on the freedom of information. Most of the infrastructures we are using right now was accomplished during the Marcos regime. I am not a Marcos loyalist not am I an Aquino fan. I just wish that the present government will pay attention to the real issues of the country which is poverty, unemployment and overpopulation. Let the Senate be the judges in the impeachment. Let the courts decide on the fate of GMA and Abalos. The president should focus on the real needs of the people. He cannot totally erase corruption in 2 years but give the Filipinos a break from vengeance. Give priority where it should be. What has happened to the RH Bill, the Information Bill? All attention has been focused on the impeachment. It is dividing the country. Will the economy improve after Corona and the other justices are impeached? Unemployment rates have recently gone up but still it hasn't been a wake up call. Do Filipinos have to go abroad just to have employment opportunities? Is this our only way to have improvement?

I also believe on what Bongbong said about moving forward. Although I am not a Pnoy fan, but I like what he is doing for our country. He is trying to correct the corruption that has been made by the past administration. But I think the country's success lies on each one of us. If we continue to support our own products, support each other, abide by the rules, be disciplined enough, etc., we might have a better chance on having a successful economy.

Hello Anne25spenn, to be honest with you, the only thing that a Filipino can get out from their dire situation was to work abroad and save money to make their lives better. It's really in the hands of the filipinos now to make it work, sad to say that we can't do this very efficiently. we have problems now but at least were free, we only have to be more careful with our lives. what's the point of the good economy if there's no freedom like what the chinese are expriencing in China...there has to be something else we can do than repeat the marcos like regime.

I'm wondering what country hasn't been hit by the current economic crisis and corruption? I love the culture of the Philippines. I hope it focuses on the origination of it's culture to straighten out it's current dilemma.
