To those who were born after 1986, here’s a trivia for you.
The MARCOS JAPANESE ODA SCANDAL or MARUKOSU GIWAKU or simply MARCOS SCANDAL was one of the reasons why Japan created its 1992 ODA Charter.

@bongbongmarcos @pcogovph @senatePH @SCPh_PIO
What happened to the money the Japanese paid the Philippines? MARCOS POCKETED THEM WITH THE AID OF HIS CRONY FRIEND, ROBERTO BENEDICTO WHO HE MADE THE PHILIPPINES’ AMBASSADOR TO JAPAN.
When Ferdinand Marcos became president in 1965, he appointed his Upsilon Sigma Phi fraternity brother and golfing buddy Roberto Benedicto as the Philippines' ambassador to Japan. Benedicto's appointment allowed him to develop high-level contacts in Japan

“KUNG TALAGANG NAGNAKAW ANG MGA MARCOSES, BAKIT WALANG NAKULONG?” (A Thread)

#MarcosMagnanakaw

1. There was no ANTI-PLUNDER LAW during the Marcos' case. (NO RETROACTIVE EFFECT - Hindi maaring hatulan ang mga Marcoses gamit ang 1991 ANTI-PLUNDER LAW)

lawphil.net/statutes/repac…
2. In the 1955 Anti-Ill Gotten Wealth Act (RA 1379) which was the basis of the Marcos case, there was no imprisonment penalty for public officials. The only penalty for such offense is forfeiting all ill-gotten assets which happened to the Marcos' case.

3. The Marcoses have ill-gotten wealth. That is the legal truth. The Court has already ruled in several cases on this matter and such decisions are already final. You can disagree with it and are free to have your own opinion, but we need to respect the rulings of the Court.

1/ For @lenirobredo to win in the 2022 elections, I propose we all make a #KakampinkyPromise to talk to 20 people to flip from Bongbong to Leni in the next 100 days. Convince 1 person every 5 days.

Leni has a 20% rating (SWS). 13 million of 67 million voters can campaign for her
2/ Even if just 1 million of us 13 million voters do this, we will win.

We will outmobilize Mr. Marcos, the absentee candidate, with time to spare.

Kayang-kaya ito. But we need to do it with love, care, and empathy.

The key principle is: ang tao ay tao, hindi lang boto.
3/ Start by asking people what their dreams are for the country, what connects us, what makes us Filipino despite our differences.

In my experience this means making sure our loved ones live a good life. I talk about my loved ones, esp the women + health care workers in my life.

Since you can't show a final SC criminal conviction of ANY of the Marcoses that cements your #MarcosMagnanakaw outcry, can you show a "findings of fact", in ANY court decisions in PH & abroad, that PROVES the Marcos wealth came from "Kaban ng Bayan"? Now, you have no excuses.
Too narrow daw ang final & executory SC conviction. Eh di gawin nating broad. Anything that you can find, in ANY court decisions, in PH and abroad, that proves the wealth came from Kaban ng Bayan, you can show.
You can no longer make this excuse: 1. "HOW CAN YOU SUE SOMEONE WHO IS DEAD?" Hindi talaga kayo nagbabasa. My challenge says: "ANY OF THE MARCOSES". There's Imelda, BBM, Imee, Irene. So, don't make this excuse ha.

9/23 marks the anniversary of Marcos' declaration of martial law in 1972. I was not alive at that time but I am aware of the atrocities of the Marcos family - from the torture of many dissidents to the looting of our country's wealth. 1/n
I remember my mother telling me that except for the curfew, life did not change that much for her. I could not wrap my mind around this. Was this because the commoners in the Chinese-Filipino community like her were apolitical? Or was this the case of ignorance being bliss? 2/n
Then I had a chance to learn that two of my uncles were caught violating the curfew. They served a few hours of jail time and had to face the police chief the next day. My uncle was telling me this as though it was a funny story. 3/n

FALSE CLAIM: The peso-dollar exchange rate during the administration of #MarcosNOTAHero was at P1.50 to P2 per dollar. (1965 forex rate - P3.91 per dollar; 1986 forex rate - one dollar was equivalent to P20.46) @rapplerdotcom #MarcosSinungaling

FALSE CLAIM: PH was the “richest country in Asia” during #MarcosIsADictator's regime or was as rich as Singapore. (1965 PH GDP - 3rd highest in Asia; 1986 - 5th place trailing behind Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, & Indonesia) #MarcosSinungaling

The beautiful island of Cebu has a long history & part of it is the long reign of #PoliticalDynasties including #GwenTrapo’s Royal House of Tuob. A thread

@claudiopoy @serrano_rene @raymondnaguit @MiguelPCaro
#GwenTuob is one of the parasites plaguing the island. Her lust for power is troubling for she is vicious to anyone who dares to oppose her rule. #GwenTheSugboDictator

Her Royal Household began its existence when Madam Glory rose to power. The Garcia clan became a trusted ally in Sugbo. #EndPoliticalDynasty #ItaponAngMgaTrapo

Part 1
A tale must be told about the siblings branding themselves as clean but pure lies. We shall begin our story w/ #ErwinDDSTroll. A thread
@ogie_rosa @HelloTimTim @leisbeth_recto
@ToniSpeakEasy @PunchTheLies Image
#ErwinDDSTroll’s mouth has always put him in trouble because he is a staunch #InutilNaPagong ally. He insulted a former general when the latter declined his interview request. He earned PMA's wrath. #BadMouthErwin

Our #PersonaNonGrataBoy hasn’t learned his lesson yet when he was at it again. This time he insulted Dapitan City & even criticized it for the slow counting of votes in the 2019 elections. @TheGodfatherXXI @supernegatrona

That's why I #StanMoniqueWilson because she recognized her father's role during Marcos' regime atrocities. She's now an activist, an ally against historical revisionism. #ArtIsAFormOfActivism @agot_isidro @Yescppicache

We’ve been through quite an adventure across the archipelago, time to go up North, to the land w/ the abundance of natural resources/fresh veggies, Benguet. Image
Our dear Prince Erickus Yup Yup Yup or Eric the worm is not from there. When its old guardian died, he was knighted by Peter the tick to take over the land. #IbalikAngABSCBN
The residents were caught off guard because they were expecting someone from the community or a neighboring district. @COMELEC even suggested that instead of appointing a caretaker, an election could be held.

To claim that #NinoyIsNotAHero is to deny that #MarcosMagnanakaw and #MarcosIsADictator. Marcos apologists and historical revisionists are the trolls who are afraid of the ULTIMATE TRUTH and REJECT HISTORICAL RECORDS. #NeverAgain #NeverForget
#NinoyIsNotAHero? What do you call Marcos? Remember the mental torture Ninoy endured when he was incarcerated. @iwant #TheKingmaker 1/3
#NinoyIsNotAHero? Why did they order him killed? By the way, who really ordered it? Was it Meldy or Ver? #TheKingmaker on @iwant 2/3
