MANILA - History and social sciences professors of the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City came together Tuesday to commemorate the declaration by the late President Ferdinand Marcos of Martial Law in the Philippines 49 years ago, and discuss why the Filipino people must never forget.
“Kung hindi ka naapektuhan ng Martial Law, you’ll have a good narrative. Pero hindi mawawala yung katotohanan na nagkaroon ng violence at nagkaroon ng violation of human rights. Yung mga yun, hindi pwedeng itaboy. Hindi pwedeng ma-revise yun kasi naganap na yun,” Luna said. “But not for long. Certainly, it was an unsustainable instrument and worse, it created new forms of violence. It transformed the nature, the intensity, and the magnitude of violence. Short-lived, a reduction in violence in exchange for a long term more violent episodes happening right after the declaration,” he said.
"In fact, yun ang magiging dahilan kung bakit may mamumuo na namang rebelyon. Bakit may radicalism pa? Bakit may extremism pa? Because the pain they have suffered under the Marcos regime was not addressed lest it was in fact aggravated so they were left with no choice but embrace radicalism or even terrorism."

Marcos’ martial law: Golden age for corruption, abusesMANILA, Philippines—Since 2015, there’s been an attempt to paint Ferdinand Marcos’ dictatorship as a golden age for the Philippines through tweaked facts and outright lies. While thousands consider the Marcos years as the darkest time in Philippine history, his family and loyalists are using mainly social media as a platform to foist their version of […] and they have the right equal to the right of those who disagree.. Loyalists? Enlightened, maybe. You can no longer push this narrative down our throats. Biased media like you are responsible for the ‘supposed atrocities’ of Martial Law. How about Cory’s Mendiola massacre and Pnoy’s SAF 44, Hacienda Luisita massacre, etc.?! What a load of bull!!!

Academicians say education must correct Marcos, martial law myths and disinformationSome scholars from the University of the Philippines said the spread of disinformation to bury the ugly truth about the dictator former President Ferdinand Marcos and the martial law era must be corrected through reforms in the education system. Wow, that pic of FM. He was so sick and his Ministry of Information kept lying to the public. I remember the O2 tanks in his bedroom and the hemodialysis machine in the Malacanan clinic. Those who want to bury the truth are the same ones who give their consent to corruption and bad governance.
