Hero’s Burial Of Marcos Will Send A Wrong Message To The World

It will “white wash” all the lawless actions that Marcos has committed and it will bring a wrong message to the world.

Manila, Philippines – The Malacanang ordered the military on Sunday to “undertake the necessary planning and preparations” for the ceremony of the interment of the former President Ferdinand Marcos at the Libingan ng mga Bayani, that might cause for the issue to rise on its utmost heat to blast. Critics said that it will “white wash” all the lawless actions that Marcos has committed and it will bring a wrong message to the world. Boni Ilagan, one of the 35,000 victims during the reign of dictatorship of Marcos said that it will simply tell the world that “in the Philippines, crime pays.”

Duterte urged that there is nothing wrong with placing the remains of Marcos at the LNMb. President Duterte sad that it is in the accordance of the law that the past Presidents, Heroes and Patriots of the country should be given a pantheon in the LNMB.Duterte was loved by most of the Filipino but still receiving criticism for his decision to allow Marcos to have a hero’s burial. The Republic Act No. 289 is used by the President to back his plan.

The plan of the burial of Marcos is said to be a payback to the man who Duterte considered as an instrument in his political career. The father of President Duterte served in the Marcos Cabinet in the 1960’s.

There have been a lot of opposition of the hero’s burial of Marcos in the LMNB. It was criticized by other groups, institutions, media and many prominent persons. They claimed that political debt should not be the reason to dilute the spirit of the law. People who have been victimized by dictatorship of Marcos are still pleading to cancel the burial of Marcos in the LNMB. The man passed away, he’s already been judged, why we still trying to look at the worst experience of the past that held us for moving on?

The event and the experience of past during Marcos dictatorship is undeniable. But we are living now in a very different time, situation and generation were most of the people is moving on for the better tomorrow of the country. If we still urging that Communism only gives oppression to the people, well let’s try to think if democracy has fulfilled to protect the people in the country. The worst thing is, outlaws and corrupt was defended by the law itself to continue their illegal activities.
