Hi Edward, Here are the most important news that you need to know. NEW YORK CITY—President Marcos has invited American investors to do more business in the Philippines, giving his strongest commitment yet to the country’s long-standing alliance with the United States and indicating a major foreign policy shift after the pivot to China and Russia of his predecessor, former President Rodrigo Duterte. The Masungi Georeserve Foundation has asked Malacañang to intervene in the ongoing controversy at the protected area after more than 30 armed men reportedly set up camp in its vicinity in an apparent bid to take over parts of the georeserve in Rizal province. REMEMBER THE FALLEN Portraits of slain anti-Marcos activists, being prepared here on Tuesday by the human rights watchdog Karapatan, form part of today’s cultural program at the University of the Philippines marking the 50th anniversary of the declaration of martial law.—NIÑO JESUS ORBETA LIGAO CITY—Albay Gov. Noel Rosal said he was filing a motion for reconsideration on the disqualification order issued by the Commission on Elections. The poll body said Rosal violated the Omnibus Election Code when, as mayor of Legazpi City, he released cash aid to drivers and seniors during the election period. If there’s anything that history has taught us 50 years after martial law was imposed, it is that memory is flawed and fragile, and that facts can always be twisted to fit a favored narrative. ... Probably because history has a stalker’s habit of inserting itself into our life to inflict the same agonies—fitting payback for being ignored or forgotten. Already, there are foreboding signs of history repeating itself. |
