In the context of the stealing allegations vs. Marcos, I bet the Guinness Book of World Records cannot produce legal documents to prove that Marcos stole. You are entitled to your warped opinions but you are not entitled to your own facts.

Fact: Marcos was dishonest way before he was president.

Another Anti-Marcos propaganda that only shows one side of the story. You can yak all you want, trollk41 but Marcos was a Medal of Valor awardee and is now buried at the Libingan ng mga Bayani".

"Evidently, the plaintiff Republic failed to prove by preponderance of evidence that the defendants by themselves, or in conspiracy with defendants Marcoses, obtained ill-gotten wealth,” the Sandiganbayan said.

Two rabidly "yellow" trolls are gonna cry themselves to sleep.

I think i was a grade schooler when marcos was still president and my memories are still clear.

Napaka tahimik noon. Other countries have high regards for us. Meron food subsidies sa mga school like nutribuns. 

Nagsimula magkagulo nung naupo na si mrs aquino. Kaliwat kanan ang coup. 

Oo meron na corruption during Marcos. Pero naging mas rampant and halos lahat nakaupo sa administration ni Cory corrupt. 

Wala na sana NDF CPP NPA kasi nakulong si Joma Sison sa panahon ni Marcos. Pinakawalan naman ni Cory nung sya na ang presidente.

During Marcos' regime, people seemed to be more disciplined. Despite of the alleged corruptions, our military might seemed to be feared in Asia. We have good and well maintained attack helicopters. We have  We can literally defend ourselves. Our schools were the best in this part of the world. A lot of our Asian neighbors go here to study agricultural technology and other sciences.

After the revolution, Mrs. Aquino came into power. I witnessed the violent struggle in Mendiola and heard of the incident in Hacienda Luisita. The endless unsuccesful revolts by Col. Honasan and company. The suspension of greenlighted project by the previous administration. Projects which were loaned and would have helped in paying off the loan through revenue generation should it been allowed to push through. The deterioration of our military might thru decomissioning and repurposing. There were controversies of high ranking military officers purchasing some decomissioned ships and later used for commerce. Some of our anti aircraft defenses were scavenged for its metal parts. 

The succeeding regimes were permissive that it allowed us to slide down into obscurity.

Kwento ng mga uncles ko na may binato ng ash tray. Tutoo o hindi?

Balak daw ibigay ni FM ang leadership kay Ninoy Aquino pero tutol ang nakapaligid. Wala rin makakapagsabi kung anong klaseng gobyerno ni Ninoy. Maaring alam ni FM ang consequences kapag mawala si Ninoy.

Hanggang sa ngayon affected pa rin tayo ng nakaraan 20 years dahil nananatili pa rin ang impluwensiya ng mga dating nakapaligid. Madali at mura para bilhin ang loyalty ng Pilipino.

at this point it's hilarious to still see people insisting that established historical records on Marcos and the events and circumstances under his 20+ year regime is just "opinion."

mildly surprised no one has mentioned the Tallano gold here, or baka natabunan lang in the earlier portions of this thread. Or was it the Yamashita gold? Parang it depends on who gets asked. 🤷‍♂️

"Established historical records"?

Established by whom? 

By Cory Aquino? by the Lopezes who owned the notorious ABS-CBN? By the Rufino-Prieto who owned the Inquirer? By New People's Army? National Democratic Front? Kabataang Makabayan, Kilusang Mayo Uno? 

History is written by the victors. These people were the victors of the People Power Revolution.

By professional historians with no agenda other than record-keeping.

by the Supreme Court which has decided cases for and against the Marcoses on the evidence.

By our Congress in passing RA 10368.

Next thing I'll be told is that BBM is an Oxford BA degree holder. LOL.

History is written by the victors. All the "established historical records" are indeed written by professional historians, and officials who are appointed by the victors to set their version of history.

Who are these "professional historians"? Name one who is not a sympathizer of the yellowist and communist movements.

Supreme Court - weren't they appointed by the victors?

Congress - dominated by the yellows and oligarch-financed politicians?
