Philippines’ presidential bet Marcos shuns talk of past atrocities (Reuters)

Philippine presidential candidate Ferdinand Marcos Jr has made it clear he will not discuss the past, after dismissing media questions about his father’s dictatorial rule and overthrow in a popular uprising 35 years ago.

Marcos, 64, the early frontrunner in 2022 surveys, has been dodging questions about a brutal era of martial law that started seven years into his father’s 1965-1986 rule, touting instead a message of unity.
