I SAW it on a Facebook wall written by a senior who is now in his twilight years. According to him, as an octogenarian, he experienced and witnessed too many calamities more than what he expected. He heard the bombs dropped by the Japanese invading army when they targeted Clark Air Force Base as World War 2 exploded following the bombing of Pearl Harbor December 8, 1941. As a young boy, he was delighted to watch the sky featuring the “dog fights” between the US air force pilots and their Japanese counterparts.
Already a grown-up in the 50’s when the dissident groups led by then Huk supremo Luis Taruc roamed the countrysides and ambushes of government soldiers were waylaid. Those were dangerous years. The Huk movement nearly toppled the established government and only was averted when Ramon Magsaysay, a popular figure among the masses, was elected president. The succeeding years, the country enjoyed tranquility until in 1972 Ferdinand Marcos wanted to perpetuate himself proclaimed martial law. His political rivals were jailed. Closed down media outlets. Imposed curfew, thus there was curtailment of movement and basic rights were clamped.
