Looking at Ferdinand E. Marcos On Othert Angle

Ferdinand E. Marcos

When I look at the picture of the man, right away I associate him with the evil of martial law, human rights violations, and the sufferings of the Filipino people during the Marcos rule.  My mind is blanketed by negative impressions that I won't listen to the reason of Marcos sympathizers. I look down on those who try to defend a tyrant. He was the reason why I marched on the streets.

But try to look at Marcos from the different angle.  Is he all that evil? Church people and those defenders of different beliefs would agree that a child is born to the world free of the stain of sin.  It is a society that molds a person into what he becomes.  Has Marcos the monopoly of evil?

The following website can give some insights on this man from another angle; http://chrisbonoan.blogspot.com/2013/06/ferdinand-e-marcos-revolution-from.html
