Yesterday started in Yahoo's "Answers" someone a question that struck like a bomb, as more than 1,000 responses in 24 hours shows yet; that was hit a nerve with this question. The question was: "Is is time for Ferdinand Marcos Sr. to be buried at Libingan ng mga Bayani? (Is it time for Marcos to be buried in Heroes' Cemetery of the nation?) After all, Yahoo was the popularity of the question as interesting that this started in the top news!
What is it exactly? The dictator Ferdinand Marcos
died on 28 September 1989 in Honolulu (Hawaii) in exile. His wife Imelda (among other things was known for her extensive shoe collection of thousands of copies) it bahrte since 1993 in a glass coffin in a mausoleum. This is on a private family plot, in which he by the public can be admired and honored. But Imelda Marcos never misses an opportunity to request again a funeral to bury her husband on the National Heroes Cemetery in Manila. There are all Philippine presidents buried, so this has been denied, even as Marcos in the Philippines for many is synonymous with corruption and murder (see also the opinions of the Filipinos to 'Answers'). He was blamed for the death of Benigno Simeon "Ninoy" Aquino, who on his return from a stay in the U.S. 21st August 1983 in Manila when leaving the aircraft was shot. Incidentally, Imelda, widow of Marcos, Aquino previously threatened that if he returned to the Philippines will!
And now, just days after the suicide of Angelo Tomas Reyes, who was previously a minister of the Arroyo administration and during the Estrada presidency chief of staff of the army came, but smooth the call for a funeral Marcos back on the table. Last Angelo Reyes was brought by massive corruption and bribes connected to what drove him to suicide at the grave of his mother. However, he was given a state funeral at the military cemetery and in the breath of history, a visit is also a renewed call for a Marcos burial. But the current President Aquino, whose father "Ninoy" it was who was shot at the airport, has expressed the meaning this: "Everything I say this would be interpreted only as a subjective point of view. We should save our country that. I will award the contract to a study." Whether you recognize the family of Marcos is remains to be seen as Bongbong Marcos son called clear that his father had received as president of a state funeral.
Here are some excerpts of responses from Yahoo, including those showing how easily the people can be manipulated with moods and sometimes how little facts or are forgotten. In any case, very interesting and entertaining:
- were "In my view, not all acts of Marcos as bad ... let its merits remember for the economy, when we moved to Singapore and Japan the same, as one of the most advanced countries in Asia. His family has suffered enough under the shame and humiliation. And yet they serve their followers. Maybe it's time to forgive and to forget what happened 20 years ago. When we forgive Reyes, then let's just forgive Marcos. Let us bury him out of respect for his achievements and his death. "
- " The decision to revive the claim of the funeral of Reyes was not the best, but that does not change anymore. Marcos "sins" against our country go far out of the embezzlement. Our moral sense was damaged, Incorrect values were cultured and still there are destructive forces in power. It will take generations to repair the damage. As long as his surviving family do not apologize for his mistakes, he can not be regarded as a hero ... "
- " For me it's time to change our opinion about Marcos. He has done much for the Filipino people. During his time we were known as the richest country in Asia that has achieved no president ever again. "
- " Yes, let his body be buried in Heroes' Cemetery and heal all the wounds of division in our country and people. "
- " It Marcos's time to bury. Filipinos need a guide, look where we are now? No death penalty, a rampant corruption, bureaucracy, drugs, poverty, a corrupt Catholic church, call it whatever you want! We are far down and still falling! The media pounced on sensational Angelo Reyes funeral, that was what happened. We have a president who is too stupid to think two steps forward. It is time to bury Marcos. It is time Arroyo bury Live "
- " I think it's bury all good this wax figure at the military cemetery as long as you can read on his grave stone!. This is a killer, robber and a great tyrant "
- " Is so great! As would be to bury notorious drug lords? I mean buried alive! Or Ampatuan Sr. when he dies? "
- " Comparing Singapore and the Philippines, what do you think who trained their leadership during the time Mark? Investigated only once before you say such nonsense about Marcos! Marcos was not a puppet of the USA! Marcos wanted independence from the United States and was therefore no longer supported by them. Therefore he let build a nuclear power plant. Yes, he was a hero! "
- " I say we should bury him in one of Imelda shoe boxes. "
