    ‘Move on’ as in kalimutan na lang ang lagim ng Martial Law?

    By Christian Esguerra  |  Sep 23, 2022 8:10 PM

    “Move on!” ‘Yan lagi ang sinasabi ng pamilyang Marcos para sanggahin ang kritisismo sa kanilang bersyon na maganda at masagana ang buhay noong panahon ng Martial Law sa ilalim ni Ferdinand Marcos Sr. Hindi sila umaamin sa mga pang-aabuso; hindi rin sila humihingi ng tawad. Ganun na lang ba ‘yun?
