SEPTEMBER 21, 2025 marked the 52nd Anniversary of the illegal declaration of Martial Law by the father of the current president Bongbong Marcos – Dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos, Sr.
A fitting commemoration by the Filipino people of this dark period of the country’s history was the nationwide mass mobilizations carried out on this day, calling for an end to corruption under this current administration of president Bongbong Marcos and VP Sara Duterte, and that of VP Sara’s father, former president Rodrigo Roa Duterte (now detained by the International Criminal Court, awaiting trial for his crimes against humanity, for the killing of about 30,000 Filipinos, including youths).
WIDESPREAD CPRRUPTION
The mass rallies demanded the apprehension and conviction of certified corrupt senators, congressmen, government officials/personnel of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), private contractors, as well as other corrupt officials in other government agencies.
The mass rallies by Church bishops/priests/pastors/leaders, and their parishioners, military/police active and retired officials, political parties and countless people’s organizations made an urgent demand for president Bongbong Marcos and VP Sara Duterte to immediately stop the widespread corruption committed and being committed under their administration.
Also, in their mass mobilizations, the Filipino people called for the investigation of the massive corruption committed by the administration of VP Sara’s father, former president Rodrigo Roa Duterte (currently detained in a cell under the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Hague, Netherlands, awaiting trial for the killings of about 30,000 Filipinos, including youths).
“The rallyists demand: ‘CONVICT the guilty, JAIL them and force them to RETURN the money and properties they acquired illegally using the money they stole from the Filipino people’.”
CONVICT THE GUILTY
The rallyists demand: “CONVICT the guilty, JAIL them and force them to RETURN the money and properties they acquired illegally using the money they stole from the Filipino people.”
Indeed, these mass actions served especially to educate and enlighten the Gen Z generation, the generation of their “Kuyas Ates,” and the current generation of children and youths, about the rapes, tortures, murders, mass slaughters, other atrocities, plunders and various crimes of the dictator, Ferdinand Edralin Marcos, under his brutal authoritarian regime.
The despot was supported, with canine loyalty, by his defense secretary Juan Ponce Enrile, AFP Chief Gen. Fabian Ver, and cronies like the Escuderos, Disinis, Benedictos, Cayetanos, and others.
Dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos exploited and oppressed his fellow Filipinos for more than 15 years, by suppressing press freedom, and fully utilizing his private army, his attack dogs then – the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), and the forerunner of the present PNP – the Metrocom and the Philippine Constabulary (PC), which mercilessly served as the torturers, rapists slaughterers and killers of more than 200,000 Filipinos, as researched by the government agency, Human Rights Violations Victims’ Memorial Commission (HRVVMC).
ILLEGAL TAGGING
Incidentally, under president Bongbong’s and VP Sara’s watch today, illegal detentions, extrajudicial killings and enforced disappearances have been ongoing, given the illegal red-tagging of reformist activists and groups by the notorious government agency, National Task Force to End Local Communist Conflict.
More significantly, the September 21, 2025 nationwide mass protests against corruption under the administration of president Bongbong Marcos and VP Sara Duterte, widely exposed and highlighted their mismanagement, if not their traitorous misgovernance, enabling corrupt practices by senators, congressmen, AFP/PNP officers and other public officials in various government agencies, down to the level of LGUs.Understandably, the people are demanding investigations of suspected personalities involved in corruption, and to be held accountable soonest, under the rule of law.
Also expected for investigations are the officials and other personalities involved in corruption under the murderous leadership of the current ICC detainee, former mayor/president Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
No wonder, the people have been crying out loud for so long: “NEVER AGAIN, NEVER FORGET!” “MARCOS PANAGUTIN, DUTERTE SINGILIN!”
