One of the best President that I appreciate so much. Was the late President Ferdinand E. Marcos.
He is among the best that make this country be proud off. When he was the President, our country is no. 1 in Asia if we are talking about economy and Japan is the second one.
At the time of Pres. Marcos, we are respected by other countries. Some people in Asia, come to the Philippines, looking for Jobs. But now, we are going abroad to look for a jobs.
I read from a comments. That South Korea, copied the way of Marcos, to run a government. Which is now Korea, is one of the best economy in Asia.
Now, what is happening to this country (Philippines)? All of the said good politicians are among the evil one in the Government. They are criticize Marcos, in what he did to our country but they cannot criticize on what they did to our country...?
It is true that economically, the Philippines was doing relatively better during the time of Marcos than now. The problem then was the suppression of democracy and the human rights violations. Although I'm not saying that there no more human rights violations now...
ReplyDeleteThe point is: Marcos has his good points and his bad points. And I'd like to think that the Philippines post-Edsa also has good points (as well as bad).
The challenge to the present administration (and the next, etc...) is to take the good points from both - take the best of both worlds, so to speak, and make it all work together for the betterment of the country. Of course, that is not going to be easy. It will require the cooperation of all.
