unemployment rate was falling in the early years of the Marcos regime from 7.1% in 1966 to 3.9% in
1975 and the country's GDP was higher than that of South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and
Singapore from 1950-1960. During the 1960s up to the declaration of Martial Law(1972) and at that time

hacienda luisita was revoke during cory. Meralco were given to Lopez without paying anything. Cory is
the worst president. Puppet of obligarch. Only politicians and obliqarch benefited from ESDA1, not the
nation

And President Marcos imposed martial law on the nation from 1972 to 1981 to suppress increasing civil
strife and the threat of a communist takeover following a series of bombings in Manila and do you know

who's the Leader there? IT'S......AQUINO😂 ( THE Yellows’ martyr Benigno ‘Ninoy’ Aquino, Jr. was crucial
in the founding and growth of the Communist Party of the Philippines and the New People’s Army (CPP-
NPA) )

Imagine what marcos could've done if TAE😂 didnt interrupted and if you say that marcos declared
martial law to remain power. he won the snap election you can search it

IN his first term, President Marcos immediately sat out to solve the country’s most urgent problems of
inadequate food supply, lack of basic social services, infrastructure support and a lethargic economy
controlled by aliens and a well-entrenched oligarchy. He relentlessly pursued his political and social
platform of “rice and roads.” The priority was to achieve food security for his people.

It was during Marcos’s presidency that the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) was established to
serve as the focal point of research efforts in rice technology, not only for the country, but also for the
rest of the world. The different high-yielding varieties developed at IRRI soon changed the agricultural
landscape in most rice-producing nations in the Third World, including
our country.

As a result, the Philippines began exporting rice in 1977. After being a rice importer for many decades,
the country was able to ship 15,000 metric tons of rice to Indonesia. Since then, the country has been
consistently exporting rice in varying amounts to such countries as Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore,
Vietnam, Brazil, Australia and Germany.
Aware that the agriculture-based economy could not compete with the emerging markets in Asia,
President Marcos ordered on September 28, 1979 the implementation of the country’s 11 heavy
industrialization projects and announced this before the University of the Philippines Law Alumni
Association. At that time. we were already on the way to NIC-hood status (newly industrialized country).

The projects were integrated steel, petrochemical complex, heavy engineering industries, the expansion
of the cement industry, the industrialization of the coconut industry, an integrated pulp and paper mill,
copper smelter, aluminum smelter, phosphate fertilizer, the manufacture of diesel engines and Alcogas.

In reaction, the International

Monetary Fund (IMF)-World Bank and their allies, including the President’s technocrats, led by then-
Prime Minister Cesar Virata; the Makati Business Club, led by the late Jaime Ongpin and the Zobel-Ayala
group; and the Center for Research and Communication, an institution associated with Opus Dei, whose
spokesman was Dr. Bernardo Villegas, went to work, relentlessly blocking and delaying the projects at
every turn.

To oppose Marcos, they even came up with a sardonic slogan to dramatize their effort: “You can’t eat
steel!”

Visibly irritated over the negative reactions of the IMF-World Bank and the Makati business group,
Marcos issued a strong public statement accusing them of sabotaging the country’s industrialization
plan.

A year later, Ninoy Aquino, who ignored the government’s request to suspend his return to the country,
was assassinated on his arrival at the airport. The incident triggered a political and economic crisis in the
country, exacerbated by a spate of oil-price increases, inflation, capital flight and the deliberate
tightening control of credits by the IMF-World Bank and other foreign creditors.

As a consequence, Marcos’s massive industrialization plan evaporated into thin air.

Look what happened:

The economy in the post-Marcos years turned from bad to worse notwithstanding his successors’
accumulated budgets in 29 years of more than P30 trillion. This huge budget, which is now a subject of a
comprehensive research work by the Philippine Council of Management Research Institute, was
supposed to spur economic growth.

By comparison, Marcos’s official accumulated budget in 20 years was only P486.42 billion. Yet, on
records, none of them or all of his successors combined could not even match his economic
infrastructures of roads, bridges, hospitals and schools; a tri-modal transportation system of air, land
and sea; communication facilities; energy infrastructure; and the laws required to safeguard the
economy and make it progressive

Under the Marcos regime, Filipinos also saw the establishment of unprecedented edifices and
infrastructures, the majority of which still stand proudly today, servicing the needs of the Filipino
people.

It was in Marcos’s time when pioneering hospitals were built: the Philippine Heart Center, Lung Center
of the Philippines, and the National Kidney and Transplant Institute.

Cultural, tourism and heritage sites were, likewise, constructed: the Cultural Center of the Philippines,
Folk Arts Theater, Philippine International Convention Center, the National Arts Center (now Makiling
Center for the Arts) housing the Philippine High School for the Arts, Nayong Pilipino and the People’s
Park in the Sky in Tagaytay City.

To address the influx of people migrating to urban centers from the countryside—which gave birth to a
myriad of other problems, such as violence, social unrest, environmental degradation and limited
housing provision—President Marcos came up with the Bagong Lipunan Improvement of Sites and
Services (BLISS) projects in Manila and in the rural areas to house the country’s poorest of the poor.

A total of 230,000 housing units were constructed from 1975 to 1985. While it provided dignified
shelter, the ultimate goal of BLISS is to develop a strong and solid economic base for the community,
thereby inculcating self-reliance among the beneficiaries.

Former National Economic and Development Authority and Professor Emeritus of the University of the
Philippines School of Economics Gerardo P. Sicat, one of the country’s most distinguished economists,
said: “Of all the presidents of the country [to this time], Marcos built the most extensive infrastructure.
The projects were interrelated and complemented sector-development objectives. He put in the major
trunk-line road networks within the country, linking them from Luzon to the Visayas, and then to
Mindanao.

“These networks were essential in bringing down the cost of transportation, thereby raising the
prospects of commerce throughout the affected regions of the country. In his two terms in office, he
concentrated on a network of roads, simply designed and inexpensive school buildings, and irrigation
systems that also built farm-to-market roads.

“In Luzon major irrigation systems and hydroelectric power plants were built. These were the Upper
Pampanga River Project, Angat multipurpose power and irrigation project and the Magat River Project.
These projects firmed up the role of Central Luzon and the Cagayan Valley in the Green Revolution of
the 1970s. In addition, community irrigation systems were built in many other provinces where
agricultural activities thrived, especially across the nation and in the big islands. This increased
agricultural activities in the big Visayan Islands and in Mindanao, and helped cover a wide area of the
rice and food-producing region. The result of these investments could be seen in the rise of agricultural
output, especially the increase toward greater sufficiency in palay production. Irrigation helped to raise
farmer productivity.

“He improved the older networks of national roads that connected provinces, and rehabilitated them
with durable construction. A lot of these projects eased the transport bottlenecks within provinces and
across provinces, and improved intra-island travels within the big islands.

“He linked these with airport constructions. If Marcos were to be judged only on his infrastructure-
construction program during his first two terms alone, he would have been considered an outstanding
president. But, actually, he undertook a lot more, especially during the martial-law period. The building
program for the improvement of public-school buildings, especially at the elementary level, was one of
the earliest programs of Marcos.

“A study of infrastructure construction by various presidents shows that Marcos was the president who
made the largest infrastructure investment. This is not because he was the longest-serving leader of the
country alone.

“On a per-year basis, he led all the presidents. Only Fidel Ramos had bested him in road building for a
period of one year. But overall in terms of quantity of infrastructure investments, their impact on the
rest of the economy and on the breadth and depth of the investments, Marcos was by far the most
prolific, undertaken on a per-year basis and cumulatively over the years that he held office.

“The government’s share of public investment to GDP rose to 6 percent from the meager amount of 2
percent of GDP before he took office. This was no mean feat. The level of economic activity rose overall
and—in the case of the transport investments—they increased the efficiency of the economy. A great
part of these investments in roads was in the countryside so that agricultural output and domestic
commerce increased.

“The variety of public investments undertaken was made possible by various methods of mobilizing
financing for them. Although some of the major road projects and other public works were placed under
the direct programs of some major departments of the government, a large part were undertaken under
the auspices of many restructured government entities that took on a corporate form. So, in great
measure, the reorganization of the public agencies helped in strengthening the capacity to undertake
the projects.

“Major projects dealing with expansion of the irrigation, water services, and power projects were
pursued by entities under the corporate structure. They had more fiscal autonomy, and the programs
were subject to a system of accountability. The corporate framework for these agencies enabled them
to incur debt financing from major multilateral and bilateral development agencies that led to the
construction of major development projects.
“Nevertheless, his unparalleled achievements and contributions to the country, especially in
infrastructure development, albeit persistently shunned from the spotlight, will remain as his lasting
legacy. For as long as they stand, Marcos lives.”

RICE, Roads and ’Rithmetic was President Marcos’s battle cry during his first term in office. By
’Rithmetic, he meant school building where arithmetic is learned. In this area, he again outperformed
the five Presidents after him.

Another stellar achievement of the Marcos administration in education is the creation of the National
Manpower and Youth Council to meet the growing needs of the labor sector for skilled workers.

Years later, it was renamed and rebranded as the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority
to deliberately erase the Marcos name.

Marcos’s laws and other edicts

Marcos crafted and formulated with the help of experts 7,883 presidential decrees (PDs) and other legal
issuances from September 21, 1972 up to February 26, 1986, a span of 14 years.

Justice Manuel Lazaro said these laws set the rules, regulations and penalties for almost every facet of
lawful and ethical human conduct—from birth to grave.

They are categorized as follows: PD (1 to 2036); Letters of Instruction (1 to 1525); Letters of

Implementation (1 to 157); General Orders (1 to 61); Executive Orders (EO) (366 to 1093);
Administrative Orders (349 to 504); Proclamations (1081 to 2486); and Memo Circulars (599 to 1297).

Out of the 7,883 presidential issuances, only 67 PDs or less than .01 percent have either been repealed
or modified. The minimal percentage of 67 PDs either repealed or modified by EO 187 issued by Corazon
Aquino were the decrees increasing the penalties for certain offenses against public order and security,
e.g., PDs 38, 1735, 1834, 1974 and 1996.

Interestingly, the rationale and purpose of the PDs repealed or modified were resurrected in enacting
Article 134-A of the Revised Penal Code, as amended by RA 6968. Notably, 7,816 issuances are still
effective and enforced up to the present. These laws are eloquent proof of the wisdom, vision,
dedication and foresight Marcos possessed as instruments of good and effective governance.

Lazaro said: “No President in the country’s legal history had codified more laws. Worth mentioning are
the 15 codified laws, with social and economic relevance. These are the Local Tax Code [PD 231]; Labor
Code of the Philippines [PD 442]; Real Property Tax Code [PD 464]; Child and Youth Welfare Code [PD
603]; Insurance Code [PD 612];

“Revised Forestry Code [PD 705]; Code of Sanitation [PD 856]; Coconut Industry Code [PD 961]; Water
Code [PD 1067]; Code of Muslim Personal Laws of the Philippines [PD 1083]; National Building Code [PD
1096]; Philippines Environment Code [PD 1152]; Fire Code [PD 1185]; Government Auditing Code [PD
1445]; Tariff and Customs Code [PD 1464]; and Code of Agrarian Reform [PD 444].”
More important, there is the Judicial Development Fund, the wellspring of the financial benefits of the
members of the judiciary. There is also the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp., a consistent
source of revenues for the country.

In essence, as long as the laws he issued are embedded in the country’s legal system, Marcos lives and
they will continue to guide and safeguard the nation and its people
