nation or bring back his father's controversial legacy? this is inside story. ah hello, welcome to the program, i am hush am abolla ferdinand. marcus junior has been inaugurated as president of the philippines. his father was a controversial leader there didn't mark a senior who was forced out of office in 1986 popular uprising manny say he was under to aquatic leader. how killed jail or disappeared. thousands of opponents during his 21 years in office. and more than 30 years since his father led the philippines, his son is now in power after winning a landslide victory,

promising to tackle inflation and struggling economy. but when his father's legacy proved too much of a challenge were bring in our guests in a moment. first, this report from jemila an inner gun in manila. see pertinent good after more than 30 years. the rehabilitation of the marcus name in the philippines is nearly completely gutted. bongo marcus junior, the only son in name sake of the country is late dictator, is now it's next president, after winning an unprecedented 3rd to $1000000.00 votes. the marcus's are considered one of the most infamous political families in asia, and their name has long been synonymous with decadence and abuse of power. they ruled the philippines from 1965 until 1986 when they were ousted through a people power revolution. the president of the republic. oh, but philippines,

his inauguration and thursday, is noticeably more grand than those of his predecessors aquino. and to that day there is more parade and pomp than usual. but his speech focused less on the style j and more on reconciliation. we will build but better by doing things in the light of the experiences that we of hug both good and bug. it doesn't matter. no looking back in anger or nostalgia in the road ahead, the immediate months will be rough. but i will walk got road with you. the markers resurgence is the result of a decades long, well funded campaign to revise history in this year's election online propaganda coupled with the marcus families, bast well and their alliance with the charity, by the way, 1st presidency. but his administration is expected to face

a tough road ahead. the country is facing its worst economic crisis and decades. its education and public health systems are in shambles, and society is deeply polarized across the capitol. several activists have been arrested by an all too familiar scene during his father's regime. but historian, see, although the past has a way of catching up with the present, the conscious future on their markers junior has yet to be written. so there is little choice, but to give it a chance to unfold, jamal alida again, i'll jazeera manila. ah, let's bring in our guests in manila, butchered he darian columnist of the philippine daily enquirer in denver, all when cumber assistant professor, other joseph called bel school of international studies, university of denver in the philippines city of martina danella, a route,

a convenor of the election watchdog control dia, welcome to the program. richard, what does the revival of the marcus political dynasty mean for the philippines? well, in many ways, this marks are decades long frustration of ordinary people with a dysfunction off the supposedly democratic system that replace the markets dictatorship after $986.00. i mean, that revolution was supposed to bring about the progressive order. it, what happened was the liberal, all the works in the country. what happens, what political dynasty in the countries co opted the revolution. and hence, we had a lot of these functions. i mean the philippines, as one of the most concentrated growth on earth, 40 reaches families to come, 76 percent need to create the growth in 2011 up to 83 percent of the philippine congress is dominated by political dynasties. i mean, these are mind boggling numbers. and of course, the pandemic in recent years has also made the poverty gains and developmental

gains also. they were reversed in many ways. so the return of the market, this is really counter lucia and it's, it's a way by which the mark this is we're able to exploit people's frustration. we want to replace their father's regime. and now they're back in power in alliance with the terry. the some still remain really, really potent force and politics. oliver, this is someone who's going to face. he is challenges ahead. but given the landslide victory, do you think that there will be enough confidence to pursue an aggressive political agenda? i feel like he will likely be able to push back against start off this like prevention backlash against his policies. he, you know, he was elected with 31000000. like off the latino voters. yes. a strong base. there's a strong coalition of leads around him. and you know, he will likely focus on having his own think of policies that are somewhat a spin off that the policy. so in dependent foreign policy,

i focus an infrastructure and a strong state, i guess the opposition. of course it's going to be a bit different. he will reward a different leads and he will focus on a different that agenda to some degree. but i think he will have some degree of popular mad, some popular minded to push forward his own policy. and the most from i would say, you know, a potential public backlash denila, this is someone who is going to be home to buy the legacy of his father, ferdinand mancha senior. however, he's not willing to defend himself from that legacy, or at least denounce it, which is going to create some confusion about those who suffered under the era of, of his father. yes, that stu, this information is the name of the game right now, and there seems to be been mar, my is a shot of yours, not to mention that institutionalization repression. of course, it's little hard men shuns for station or equal,

but we have to also take into account the fact that the mark was there some prepared for this or more than 30 years now. they really intend to make well and young and they did so because they're seen savvy, who for them to be given a chance, but for them to either bentley aggregate, i'm themselves, america. if that needs to be close to fiction, something that's about a little university, mostly madness. if you don't mind my in saying that it's mainly because of that this information mainly because you started so then i yes and that, that game. and that's why there's a need to fight back and to push back. richard, explain this to us. i mean, you have a new president whose father was accused of plundering, almost $10000000000.00 during hayes brain. and the family itself has been involved in tax evasion schemes. still people seem to forget those things and say,

you know what, let's move ahead with the locust family. yes, i mean, i completely agree with bonilla and a lot of journalists and colleagues to emphasize that all of this information. but there was a reason why i emphasize systemic frustration because this information is bare in many countries all around the world. in fact, if you look at misperception index, for instance, the levels of the information, the philippines, a similar to columbia, to mexico, to brazil. and yet those countries keep on let, the more progressive leaders spend the philippines. so we're forgetting, for instance, the dysfunctions of the opposition in the philippines, lack of unity among them. but more importantly, we're also forgetting the fact that this information is a most, i mean people are most receptive to decent information. and if the educational system is not in calculating the critical thinking, that will help them to seats with this information. this information is more appealing to people. if people, for instance, are frustrated with system and don't see any prospect or break out performance, for instance. so i think to look at just information alone,

you're missing your discretion to surface and you're not looking at structural factors that are coming to picture. not to mention that they said had, for instance, started the 3rd, the presidential daughter for my presidential daughter had decided to run for the presidency. i'm not sure if mark as junior without even stating the rates, never mind winning 58 percent of the vote. so that aligns with the 3rd. this was also very important. contingent factor that meeting victorious, but nonetheless, correct. i agree with alvin that marcus will try to play his own game. i mean, clearly he's trying to be its own man. if you look at his cabinet appointments, he's putting a lot of lawyer list just wanted advice source traditionally there. so he's trying to also show that he can an independent from other houses, including the house that they're there, and try to be in his way, at least a unifying leader focusing on economic recovery and infrastructure development. alva, to break down this path towards the presidency, was the monk, his family taken advantage of what richard said, basically, which is

a long frustration with a dysfunctional political establishment, or was it a family that knew how to use social media in a way or another to reinvent itself because ultimately when you have younger generation voting, the tend to forget the past. it's a bit of both. i mean dynamo and richard are, are both correct on this. structurally speaking, you cannot disentangled this information and education. and that said, the political mobilization of a family from the structural context where it exists. the philippines is what richard said, the rights of the labor of the, the come back of the liberal in the 1980s in the 19 eighties and the failure of stealing government. the words made for reform to the same time. you do the same time you while you have this polarization and started the philippine context. you do have political maneuvers going on. it's got going on that's about i do want to highlight. but richard said, and i completely agree, i completely agree with this. the rule of education is extremely important and

a couple of social scientists have come up, come up with the idea that, oh, you know, if you take a look at the people voted for marcos, do you have college educated people voting for marcus? you have people with masters degrees, people would be age, these in some sort of dataset. they sort of great this idea that education is a factor. and i disagree with this because a lot of the studies that say that education is not a factor. they use data sets that, that, that look at education in terms of categories like primary secondary, tertiary. but i bet if we have a better data set that looks at the quality of education, then we could actually say that education is indeed a major factor as to why people voted for marcos. than in the few days before the integration of the government decided to shut down the use websites, butler, is this something which is likely to be further consolidated by markers, or do you think that he will be under pressure to to reinstate it back? the some extent he will,

i will be there. he's administration because he knows that he build the papers. time will be there, but of course he will. he never there last the justify the refresh on the day and for the same lease on faith as far as his father is also very much in how you regard them even if the president. busy didn't see him that much. i can did there. he was even use of the you know, a grant. but nevertheless, these are very bad signs for media. it's not just been under the administration on just recently. our web site will not be out there. and i just need organizations where shut down because the blocking our website the on the or there's always

be way back once more so we would see that in the be. so that's why she would have to happen even within the ranks of need. yeah, that's the difference between the mark was and the shot in the flash that meet the way not progress so much. but right now the red gate has become so intense that you've been joined the list or administration on be bagging. richard you mentioned earlier, the alliance between the 2 powerful dynasties the deter t. tessie and marcus junior. which, by the way, for marcus to take over in this case, is he going to end up being politically beholden to saturday. 30 for the rest of his tenure. you know, i agree with denila that, i mean, if you look at the markers, this bill will try to do all the rights for instance, to make themselves look good internationally. right? i mean, look at the non duration speech. it was mostly in english,

very sophisticated prose. got a lot of high level dignity, ours. see one thing prove the world and in the same way that kind of strategy. i think it also apply to the author rival arrivals, or at least for that matter. i mean, on one hand, of course the market this will say where i live for life. that's exactly what presidential sister. i me, mark with senator markets that we're going to be i life i life for life. we did it there is they attended the inauguration of started the 3rd in the saw the said will take care of you. but at the same thing for the mark was in the 1st hours after he won the presidency of the other one she didn't use are the did the cabinet position . she was asking for, which was the point of national defense. instead, marcus shows to give it, for instance, so the former general more traditionally versus he didn't give the part for the 1st lawyer that gave it the traditionalist. all so and then in the speaker of the house, for instance, everyone thought it is going to give it, for instance, to former president roy. one of the key are lecturing to campaign that brought the do also together. he didn't give it to her. in fact, in support that isn't causing martin tomorrow, this to take over the speaker of the house. what does it say?

it says that the market will try to do the bare minimum to avoid major divisions, fault lines, and fights with other houses. but at the same time, they'll try to consolidate their own hold and power and push their own agenda. and i think if ever barcus, which is for constitutional change, that's where we're going to see a lot of divisions. definitely the there this want more federalism more dysentery. the centralization of power, but marcus may have his own india the bought the strong, strong, centralized oven. tomorrow. the president will have to deal with issues such a country which runs ported when it comes to the global corruption assessment, which he is suffering from under developed infrastructure. how can he move forward to rebuild this country so he will likely continue at that, that are the government's focus on infrastructure. so getting a lot of foreign government loans, particularly from china, did in development back in japan and pushing the budget to sort of like financing

a lot of this projects. so under the 3rd, the government pursue the budget deficit, strategy call that build the build marcus would likely do the same. and to some extent, this harkins back to how his father govern the philippines in the 1967 and 80 s. i think the focus on infrastructure is really, really important. if it is done successfully, it can, it can lead to employment in place people, it rewards local business elite because infrastructure projects will have to be coordinated with international play or some domestic players. it builds this legitimacy because it makes it that be, or he is doing something. and more importantly, it creates a legacy for him and his family, for his, for the market has to continue on winning future elections. should his son or like sister run for hire possessions, danella in a way or another if you'd like to why? why watch, why to watch the legacy of your father. you need to, you need projects,

you need to bring the nation something to you. in this particular case, you have a president who takes over a nation, which has been massively hit by coven 9 team pandemic, 60000 committee. those were killed in that. and you have an economy which is moving towards a recession and you have an inflation, which is causing huge problems for the country. how do you see him getting enough revenues to be able to implement some of the pleasures he made during his election campaign? well, the based on the refund policy pronouncement, we're seeing more access to be more access or more. and of course, more more dependent on boarding investments. if you go by appointments off of the next step now they have a more need but. 2 nobody's perspective. so we can see here more would be in terms of export oriented rule for investment economy and something that's them.

so that's why it's going to be very, very challenging for the order. and even if they don't get the e that they need and the micro in small and their process will also software i saw, i don't want to be, i don't say you're here by right now, are really not so from being in so far in front of me will be concerned and part of the reason is that there has been so much that i didn't leave out of a back is true generation. so we have to do that. and in fact, being back, mastery boarding that will even go beyond this region. richard marcus will inherit from the detached he the bloody war on the drug policy. and the settlements that he made were the rebel glue growth. do you see him continuing with that legacy,

or do you see him charting his own course? right. as far as i know, i mean, based on conversation, we saw these cabinet members. i mean there are a lot of internal debates and i think markets policies still fluid how is going to stand on things. it's not even not the infrastructure issue which, you know, scholars like i'll be, have extensive written on orders an internal debate on whether they're going to go public private partnerships, or they're going to rely more on foreign financing and government financing. and also in the shop top stations should increase the top half spoken later. now the drug war, i believe there's also going to be a lot of internal discussion. so that deter this, including vice president, started there. it was also departed, education, secretary and other lawyer, least of the 3rd will push for the continuation of the drug war, almost a started school. but marcus himself recognizes that the drug war had been to be headache for the philippines that had lions. it undermines root law, it turns off a lot of investors. so he has suggested that he may tweak it a little bit,

for instance, more focused on surgical operations against big fish, drug lords, right, more focus on the patient. i think at least on the optics level, he's going to make some changes and tweaks, so he thinks we'll do better. but the big question though is, will he allow the international criminal court investigate the drug war under the previous president? because that could potentially lead to the prosecution of the previous president. oh, great conflict. we didn't polish, i'll talk foreign policy here when it comes to china. on one hand, he badly needs support from the chinese government. but do you think that this is a moment where he will have to distance himself from china and embrace more of american policies? so i don't think so. i feel like it, you know, people like people have written that the market is going to be, you know, following the footsteps of the 3rd day. and i feel like that's partially true in as

much as the market. the government will need the chinese government at the same time. he will also need the american government. you will always have institutionally disabilities, will always be tied to the united states. whether it's about exporting labor to the united states or foreign direct investment or trade. you can have to disconnect from the united states at the same time. there is a question of political survival and the question of like religion politics here. china dos give opportunities to the marcus government to do our. ready leech through particular for and projects birth through like foreign project into some other, more the financing and, and i agree that as well. and this goes back to infrastructure, and as much as i agree that it's fluid and i've done feel work here, both in the out and now they're going to miss you may be, there is always a question of how do you, why do you look at how do you extend your power at the president and to me that goes back to having foreign financing, whether it's a budget deficit strategy or it's a public private financing. it's all about to look at,

at least to keep production power. denila. is he going to be, you know, where another overshadowed by the maritime tutorial disputes with china. and we know that recently they have had an issue, particularly about the joint exploration of energy in the south china sea, which decided to shell because of huge differences. is this something which is going to definitely have an impact on his future relationship with china? yes, definitely. and us are that the gentleman mentioned, the relationship with china will still be there if it needs to be seen whether or not mark was or so an independent foreign policy. and whether or not you will have the political will to do so. what does the police on that is for that region powerful in best? still main being most relations with china, given that no investments coming from that particular b, r in separate households right now and be practically invested in bar use that

source. and that's not to say that they are surpassing the sense us transnational corporations. and so i think it will be a balancing act for you at the station maintain stronger base with china on right. ok. but that the same, i still have relations with other countries, especially they ritual in less than 20 seconds. 1986, a quino took. so i took o took over after the after departure of marcus people thought this was going to be the end of dictatorship. now it's the return of the marcus. how do you see the few? so philippines, i think if the opposition doesn't get its act together, if they don't learn to write lessons and do the proper more them, the most likely outcome for the philippines is what political science is called a hybrid regime. the philippines could end up more like neighboring countries like militia or are we countries that congress in turn to revise your opp, semi competitive electrons, semi free media, but you know,

was going to route the country which coalition will be in charge for the foreseeable future. good, so to darian of income, the noodle around. thank you very much. indeed, i really appreciate your insights and thank you to for watching. you can see the program again any time by visiting our website, algebra dot com for further discussion. go to our facebook page that facebook dot com forward slash ha inside story. you can also join the conversation on twitter. i'll 100 is at a j inside. so for me, i'm on the bottom of the entire team, into my for now. ah
