Golden years or Darkest years in Phil. History?

1. Who is Ferdinand Marcos?

- Ferdinand Emmanuel Edralin Marcos Sr. (September 11, 1917 –
September 28, 1989), also known as "Ferdinand Marcos," was a Filipino
politician and lawyer who served as the 10th President of the Philippines
from 1965 to 1986. He established an authoritarian regime in the
Philippines that was criticized for corruption and the suppression of
democratic processes.

THE MARCOS ADMINISTRATION (1965-1972)

- Ferdinand Marcos became the Philippines' 10th President after winning
the presidential election in 1965. Growing industrialization and the
construction of strong infrastructure across the country, including as the
North Luzon Expressway and the Maharlika Highway, were trademarks
of his first term. Marcos accomplished this by establishing a cabinet
made up primarily of technical experts and intellectuals, as well as
raising military funds and enlisting troops to assist with building. Marcos
also constructed more schools and learning institutions across the
country than any of his predecessors combined.
