People protesting at the Bantayog ng mga Bayani on the day Marcos was buried at the LNMB |
The stealth burial of former dictator Ferdinand Marcos at the Libingan ng mga Bayani will not change the fact that he is a heel and not a hero. The hurried and almost secret manner in which he was buried only highlights this point.
The burial of Marcos may feed the vanity and arrogance of his family but they will be wrong to think that this will bring closure to the Marcos issue. For as long as there is no justice rendered to his victims, the hallowed ground where he is interred will vomit him out no matter how deep and solid his grave was made to be.
