The martial law in 1972 was a major event in the Philippines' history. It caused a lot of disorder and violence in the country. There are many theories as to why Ferdinand Marcos declared martial law. That time when a major natural disaster or civil unrest occurs. It is usually accompanied by curfews and the suspension of civil rights and habeas corpus. Many publications have been written about the impacts of martial rule on Philippine society, but few books and articles have been written about why martial law was proclaimed in the Philippines. When Marcos formally declared martial law in the Philippines on September 21, 1972. The Marcos regime committed many human rights crimes as a result of this proclamation. Political dissidents were frequently imprisoned as "subversives" without a trial or accusations being brought against them. Political prisoners were tortured and executed.

Among the middle class and intelligentsia, there was political discontent. They shut down the media and all other means of disseminating information, effectively giving them complete control over what was said about them. These are only a few of the government's contentious activities. The Marcos gradually began to punish even the wealthy and influential.

President Ferdinand Marcos issued Proclamation 1081, instituting martial law in the Philippines, on September 21, 1972. It has been 49 years since that awful day, yet the scars linger in every Filipino citizen's heart. The proclamation of Martial Law in the Philippines was made to put a stop to a series of bombings, a communist takeover threat, and an assassination attempt on Secretary of Defense Juan Ponce Enrile in Mandaluyong. This was also implemented in order to rescue the republic and improve the social, economic, and political conditions. During Martial Law, basic human rights were not respected. People did not practice being disciplined at the period; instead, they obeyed commands because they dreaded the authorities, who had the authority to imprison people who disobeyed the regulations. With the military given authority to rescue democracy, they perpetrated a lot of crimes against humanity. As a result, Martial Law is regarded as the darkest period in the history of democracy. Human rights violations are the best evidence that the Philippines did not have democracy during Ferdinand Marcos' regime.

Furthermore, the country suffered as a result of the Martial Law's economic and debt crises.

FILIPINO FILIPINO PEOPLE PEOPLE POWER POWER REVOLUTION REVOLUTION

The 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution was a successful social movement in the Philippines that ousted President Ferdinand E. Marcos's authoritarian dictatorship, which had been in power for 20 years. President Marcos proclaimed Martial Law at the conclusion of his final term in late 1972 because there were groups of students and militants protesting against the President, and he just wanted to put an end to it. Senator Ninoy Aquino, one of President Marcos's most vocal opponents, was killed in 1983, prompting the economic middle class and the Catholic Church to join the resistance against Marcos. After roughly two million people attended Senator Aquino's burial, peaceful demonstrations grew over time, resulting in "not just the striking of employees, but the shutdown of businesses, the shutting down of public transit, and the barricading of highways." Furthermore, there was a boycott of several firms and banks that had been subjected to crony capitalism under the Marcos regime.

It was only stopped and overthrown by Corazon Aquino, the late Senator Benigno Aquino's widow, who went on to become the revolutionary president. They launched the people power revolution against Marcos' government with the support of Radio Veritas, the backing of the Catholic hierarchy led by Archbishop Cardinal Sin, the vigilance and participation of masses of people including parishioners, workinggroup, middle-class, and professional cohorts, and the defiance of top military leaders. People’s power is demonstrated in a spectacular way by the power of active but nonviolent revolution; it is the power of truth and love. In 1986, millions of unarmed Filipinos shocked the world by overthrowing Ferdinand Marcos, dubbed "the Hitler of Southeast Asia" at the time.

People were united as one or class concerns, but by their admiration for Aquino's widow, Corazon, and their dissatisfaction with the Marcos regime.”

The People Power Revolution is also known as the EDSA Revolution in the Philippines.

EDSA is an acronym for one of Metro Manila's national roads, which stands for Efifanio De los Santos. It is the precise location where the people gathered for the people power movement.

The People's Power Revolution was genuinely a people's revolution in that it had no professional army and was mostly made up of ordinary people. Along with the tiny number of rebels, these people comprised priests, nuns, laborers, and even children. Many government troops refused to attack their own people and quickly declared their support for the revolution. The revolution ended peacefully, and Marcos resigned after realizing that his army and people were united against him. He was eventually deported to the United States.

Corazon Aquino became the seventh President of the Republic of the Philippines as a result of this revolution. Despite her reputation as a sluggish housewife, Aquino demonstrated her strength as a leader by withstanding an attempted counter-revolution. The RAM faction, which was opposed to Marcos during the first revolution, attempts a counter-revolution. They did not believe Aquino had met the objectives she had set for herself. They gave Aquino little time to right the wrongs of Marcos' dictatorship. She exemplified the revolution's objectives by restoring people's rights and, eventually, democracy to the Philippines. Fidel Ramos, her successor, tried to revitalize the Philippine economy. Despite his country's high regard for him, he was only permitted one term as president under the new constitution. He could have changed the constitution to give himself a second term, but he thought the constitution was too young to be changed. After two great presidents, the Philippines' future seems bright, and they have a chance to recover from the bad consequences of the events that led to the revolution.

LET'S NOT REPEAT THE HISTORY #NOTOHISTORICALREVISIONISM

#MagPaRehistroKa

Voting is not only our rights- it is our power.

HALALAN 2022

we must remember that while our votes help politicians win, they also contribute to maintain our democratic system as a whole. We are not only electing particular politicians, but also validating the political system of our country. Votes determine victory, and voter turnout establishes a political system's legitimacy. Citizens have the power to determine the state's survival, development, or extinction as members of the state (at the very least as tax payers).

As citizens, we must acknowledge that our political system is founded on the majority's ability to perpetuate it – at least in terms of ideas and validity – through the act of voting. Those seeking profound change must also reconsider their approach to this legitimizing institution.

A political system can gain its legitimacy through quantitative means through the electoral process. Though not enough to guarantee near-absolute legitimacy (the ideal for legitimate power), it is sufficient.

A political system, particularly one that is democratizing, can only justify its existence if it can properly address the issue of alternatives, which range from the most fundamentally democratic to authoritarian regimes. As a result, this is an important topic to consider in the context of the election process. To sum up, I will not dare to respond to a question that we must each answer for ourselves as people and members of our different communities and sectors. I believe that no one should be forced to give an answer, and that how we justify our response to this issue is critical to the survival and evolution of our democracy.

ISKO MORENO FOR 2022

The mayor of Manila, Isko Moreno, has decided to run for presidency in 2022, according to his campaign manager Lito Banayo. Moreno will announce his presidential candidacy at the BASECO Compound in Tondo, Manila, on September 22. Willie Ong, a doctor and public health advocate who stood for senator in 2019 and lost, but received the second largest number of votes from foreign absentee voters, was announced as Banayo's running mate.

Moreno's campaign manager was

also a crucial participant in Rodrigo Duterte's 2016 presidential campaign, which he led to victory.

With his vigorous clean-up drive, incity housing developments, and vows to rebuild the congested and crumbling metropolis, Moreno has made headlines as Manila mayor. As a result of his increased prominence, he began to appear among preferred presidential candidates, eventually finishing second to Davao City mayor and presidential daughter Sara Duterte in a Pulse Asia poll conducted in June. Moreno stood out even more during the COVID-19 epidemic when local government officials became the primary on-theground implementors of vaccination drives, lockdowns, testing, and contact-tracing operations.

MANNY PACQUIAO TO RUN FOR PRESIDENCY

Pacquiao had previously been vague about his intentions to run for president. He previously stated that he only has three choices: run for president, run for senate again, or withdraw from politics. The senator admitted to meeting with Vice President Leni Robredo and Manila Mayor Isko Moreno, two other potential presidential candidates, but the conversations appear to have fallen through.

Manny Pacquiao's ability to roll with the blows has served him well both in and out of the ring.

His journey from poverty to billionaire, unconventional boxer to world champion, and absentee congressman to presidential candidate reads like a Hollywood script.

Almost his entire life had been spent overcoming, proving himself, and then excelling - just to restart the pattern anew. After losing to Yordenis Ugas, Pacquiao is now preparing for his most important fight yet: a presidential campaign. Much has been made about Pacquiao's boxing abilities, but how does he do as a coworker, friend, leader, and politician? Pacquiao's family was so destitute in General Santos City that he had to drop out of school at the age of 14, come to Manila, and live on the city's rough streets.

Pacquiao's campaign is currently in shambles due to disagreements over strategy, opinion, and personality. Some thought the assaults on President Duterte came too soon, while others thought Pacquiao could hold his own against him. One thing is certain: Pacquiao is not a quitter. We know this to be true in the ring, where his unconventional technique has earned him world titles. He has disproved his critics. Pacquiao is a man who is laser-focused on his goals. When he puts his mind on anything, he will go to great lengths to achieve it.

NOMINATES

BONGBONG

MARCOS

On Friday, September 24, the Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (KBL), founded by the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos, nominated his son Bongbong to run for president in May 2022. Following the nomination, Marcos submitted a recorded message to the KBL, causing a foreign correspondent to inquire if this was an acceptance. In the press forum, Marcos also stated that he is still a member of the Nacionalista Party (NP). KBL and NP used to be in an alliance, but they broke up in 2009 when Marcos campaigned for senator on the NP ticket and won. If he agrees, Bongbong Marcos will be running for president for the first time, as he strives to follow in his father's footsteps. Bongbong, like his father, has served in Congress and the Senate.

Bongbong Marcos was vice governor of Ilocos Norte from 1981 to 1983 and governor of Ilocos Norte from 1983 to 1986, when his father was overthrown.

He ran for and won the 2nd district representative seat in Ilocos Norte a decade later, serving from 1992 to 1995. In 1998, he was re-elected governor, and he served three terms in a row until 2007.

Marcos was elected to Congress again in 2007 and served until 2010, after which he ran for Senate and served until 2016.

Marcos, 64, was almost elected vice president in 2016, supported by excellent poll ratings and aided by a vast propaganda network. However, he lost by a razor-thin margin to Vice President Leni Robredo, who has hinted that a Bongbong Marcos run may push her to run for president. The Supreme Court unanimously dismissed Marcos' electoral challenge, stating that even if votes in disputed Mindanao regions were thrown out, Robredo would still have won. Marcos has filed a motion for reconsideration with the High Court, which is still pending.

Bangsamoro Bangsamoro Basic Basic Law. Law. On October 15, 2012, a monumental step for peace and unity in the Philippines was made. The Philippine government and Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) signed a framework agreement that will lead to the individualism of the Bangsamoro. This also means that Bangsamoro will take the place of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. In December that same year, The Bangsamoro Transition Commission was established. Its job is solely to create the draft of the Bangsamoro Basic Law which was brought forth by the Framework agreement on the Bangsamoro (FAB). On July 13, 2013, both parties signed the Annex on Revenue Generation and Wealth-Sharing that aims to improve the economy of Muslim Mindanao. In 2014, they again signed another agreement called the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB), in this agreement the MILF agreed to decommission their armed forces, the Bangsamoro Islamic Armed Forces (BIAF). The Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB) along with the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro and the Annexes on transitional arrangements, wealth, power-sharing, and water territories served as the basic draft for the Bangsamoro Basic Law.

Along with the first version by Aquino in 2014, a lot of versions were submitted by several lawmakers to the congress. A house committee finally approved and renamed the draft Basic Law for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region. The Senate then passed the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region law, their own version of the bill.

Due to the law’s complexity and scope, the senate decided to temporarily delay its procedure and the bill wasn’t able to be passed as a law during the Aquino regime.

However it was passed during the Duterte regime with the latest version, Organic Law for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.

YOLANDA YOLANDA RELIEF RELIEF RESPONSE RESPONSE

“Demolition, not a construction job.”

- Anderson Cooper, CNN Journalist on the government’s typhoon Yolanda response

Typhoon Yolanda is one of the most destructive typhoons to ever land on the Philippines. It is one, if not the strongest typhoon the country has ever endured. The government’s aid to the victims was criticized not only by the filipino media but also by the international press as well. Days after the storm, media outlets said that no material help is being given away to aid the victims which is very alarming as the effects of this calamity is beyond horrifying.

As international assistance rose, the Malacañang palace released a statement to update the people about the current condition of the relief goods and other help to be given to the typhoon victims.

Cabinet Secretary Rene Almendras said “We have to adjust; we have to expand (the masterplan).

We have not seen anything at the magnitude we’re seeing now. Hundreds of thousands (are affected) now. The magnitude is big,”.The palace admitted that they were not ready to deal with a humanitarian crisis of this size. One of the main problems is the transportation since it has been compromised due to the destruction of many roads in Tacloban, and other regions that were largely affected by the natural disaster.

Scrutinized by the media all over the world, this is one of the things the Aquino Administration fell short with. The following year, four months after the calamity occurred President Aquino apologized in an open forum for ‘not acting faster’, he also assured the public that the government tried its best in giving out aid to the victims. He stated that "In anything else we are also students. We want to learn from this experience and do even better next time”.

“This law will empower the next generation of Filipinos” - Benigno Aquino III on the K-12 curriculum

K-12

On May 15, 2013 President Aquino signed the Republic Act (RA) 10533 or Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013 into law. This law adds two years named “Senior high-school” to the basic 10 year academic curriculum. It aims to improve the students’ learning and mastery of their skills to prepare students for their chosen career path. The passing of this act into law promotes more opportunities for the youth not only in the Philippines, but also in the international job market.

To some people like Bro. Armin Luistro, the education secretary during the Aquino regime said that the ‘biggest education reform that we were unable to do in the past decades’ happened during Aquino’s term, other people think otherwise. Although the new curriculum has good intentions and high expectations, others say that Aquino was not able to address the actual issue in the education department. Alliance of Concerned Teachers or ACT Secretary General Raymond Basilio said "He just changed the curriculum but failed to address the primary and most basic problems.". Deficient funding, lack of schools and teaching professionals were some of the raging problems which he claimed is worsened by the implementation of the k-12 curriculum as this increases the years in school.

Overall, even though the new education program hopes to improve the Filipino youth’s future it cannot be denied that there were some shortcomings that were and are still being criticized by the public.

The Duterte Regime

Rodrigo Roa Duterte also known as ‘Digong’ is the 16th and current president of the Philippines. Born on March 28, 1945 his father was a former governor of Davao while his mother was an activist who played a big role in the “EDSA people power” movement.

Before becoming a president, Duterte spent a vast amount of time being a politician in the province of Davao. He made a name for himself for being a vulgar crime-fighter in Davao that earned him the nickname “The Punisher”. Because of this, he was criticized and was even held responsible for 1,000 extrajudicial killings by the human rights watch. Instead of denying such allegations, he welcomed them and praised the harsh methods used in eliminating crime.

During his presidency, he continued his crimefighting tactics especially in his war on drugs which resulted in a vast amount of bloodshed. In the first six months of his regime, 6,000 people were killed due to the President’s war on drugs. Numerous people were alarmed including The Catholic Church and Human rights watch, these two were also among those who spoke out about the bloodbath. Duterte didn’t falter and only accused the Church of sexual abuse and corruprion. The war on drugs continued, as the blood continued to flow.

of 17 year-old Kian On August 16, 2017, the murder

people and provoked Delos Santos angered a lot of suspicion toward the government’s anti-illegal drugs operation. The police reasoned that the boy had a gun that caused them to shoot him. In November 2018, the three cops were found guilty of murdering the 17 year old victim. “A 'shoot first, think later' attitude can never be countenanced in a civilized society” claimed Judge Roldolfo Azucena.

Duterte Administration's Pandemic Response

The Philippines is deemed to have the longest lockdown in the world and has ranked 52nd out of 53 countries in handling the pandemic according to a global study. On March 15, 2020 Metro Manila was set on lockdown and throughout the pandemic, lockdowns also evolved and developed different tiers. There's Enhanced Community Quarantine, Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine, General Community Quarantine, and Modified General Community Quarantine. There were cases in which the President also urged the police to “Shoot them dead” whenever there are lockdown violators.

As the covid cases continue to rise, the Department of Health turned down the people’s wish to have mass testing. “We have no plans to conduct mass testing. The government, since the start of this pandemic, has never advocated for mass testing because it sometimes leads to indiscriminate testing,” said Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire. She then added that no country can test all of its citizens, this is in correlation with the statement the Malacañang released saying that mass testing is “Physically impossible”. But to be clear, Mass testing does not mean testing everyone in the country. Since Covid tests in the Philippines are not free, they’re not something within everyone’s reach. Even though there is not an ongoing mass testing, or maybe there will never be one, Vergeire added that the government is doing a “risk testing” wherein "They will go to houses to identify those who have symptoms [and] who were exposed, so they will be the ones that we’ll test," she stated.

During the pandemic, the Covid-19 wasn’t the only thing that bugged the public. A television network, ABS-CBN was refused the renewal of their franchise and was forced off air. Journalist Maria Ressa was also convicted on the charges of ‘cyber libel’.

And the Anti-Terrorism Act was also signed into law. The law allows detention for 24 days without warrant and gives the executive powers to arrest and detain anyone it considers a terrorist.The Philippines is also in its worst economic state since World War II. And finally, there’s the case of underpaid health workers and staff shortage in this pandemic. Despite being the frontliners, doctors, nurses and other health workers are underpaid. "The government has the funds but health worker benefits and salaries are not prioritized by the health department." said Maristela Abenojar, national president of Filipino Nurses United (FNU) Earlier this year, March 2021, almost a year after its first lockdown, the Philippines received its first Covid-19 vaccines. As of September 2021 there are 43.1M doses given and 19.7M are fully vaccinated, 18.2% of our total population. And currently, September end 2021, there are more than 2.4M recorded covid cases in the Philippines.
