Malacanang to allow Marcos burial at Libingan ng mga Bayani

[gwapito69]

hindi ba isa sa mga rights ng leader ng isang bansa yan na kapag namatay sila e ililibing sila sa libingan ng mga Bayani? correct me if im wrong.. I know bata pa ko nung umupo si marcos sa pwesto but from what i remembered e maganda ang economy ng pinas nung time na yun compare to the present time or even after syang patalsikin. prang ang mga veteran diba isa sa mga rights din nila yun o privilege lang ba? If they want to bury (sp?) marcos sa libingan ng mga bayani then let them do it.

about time for what?

you can be a hero during the war but that is expected of all filipinos at that time. to not be a hero during world war II is cowardly and even treasonous. so what was it that marcos did during the war that is so special that countless others did not? NONE!

but marcos ceased to be that hero when he took advantage of the power that the people he was purported to serve lent to him. he abused, stoled, imprisoned and murdered his people. what ever heroism he attributes to himself had been negated by his actions when he was president. he does not deserve to be buried at the libingan ng mga bayani where true heroes rest in peace and triumph!

well said, sir yebo.

malamang flip flap uli palasyo dine.

well don't get me wrong,i said it's about time not because of what he did or what he did not do for the Philippines.He was a President.with that being said don't you think that was a good enough reason which entitles him to be buried at "Libingan ng mga Bayani" which I think was supposed to take place 16 years ago.

not all presidents were buried in libingan ng mga bayani. if that's your analogy, then we shoud buried erap and gloria too in that place when they die. sus ginoo! payag lang ako na ilibing sila sa lugar na yon basta palitan lang nila pangalan - libingan ng mga kurakot, sinungaling and criminal

hhmn..yeah you got me thinking.thanks for your input but i checked out the site for facts to back my sh*t up and this is what i found:

The Libingan ng mga Bayani (LNMB) was established by law to serve as the national pantheon "to perpetuate the memory of all presidents of the Philippines, national heroes and patriots for the inspiration and emulation of this generation and generations still unborn."

Under the rules, the remains of the following deceased persons are qualified and therefore authorized to be interred in the Libingan ng mga Bayan (LNMB)i:

Medal of valor awardees

Chiefs of staff, AFP
General flag officers of the AFP
Active and retired military personnel of the AFP
Veterans of Philippine Revolution 1896, WW1, WW2 and recognized guerillas

.. pwede na rin siguro ofw .. tutal ... sila ang "bagong bayani" ..

[badkuk]

di ba me issue na baka, and i emphasize the word baka, peke ung war records ni makoy?

[gwapito69]

sabi na nga ba e rights nila yun e... So kahit anong sabihin ng taong bayan e walang silbi kasi yan ang karapatan nila. kahit sabihin pa nating puro kurakot at walang nagawang maganda ang presidente. ang payo ko lang e live your life to the fullest kung ano gusto nilang gawin sa mga patay sila ng bahala ang dapat problemahin ng mga opisyal ng gubyerno e ang pag unlad ng pilipinas.

if that is the law then, Marcos has every right to be buried there.

if there is a law on banning leaders with shady past on the libingan ng mga
bayani, then by all means.
