power revolution that ended Martial Rule
(1972-81) about 40 years ago, The Philippines
became really strict. Minors should be home
before curfew hours and also there were no
crimes that time, which means that the
Philippines were peaceful back then.

appear confused , misinformed and different

 SIMILARITIES OF PRESIDENT RODRIGO
DUTERTE'S AND PRESIDENT FERDINAND MARCOS
GOVERNANCE
 Filipinos believe Ferdinand E. Marcos and
Rodrigo R. Duterte share a drive for power
and control over democratic institutions.
However, their methods differ due to
circumstances. Marcos's imposition of
martial law in 1972 ended decades of
democracy, leading to widespread
oppression and questioning if the
Philippines is now under a dictatorship.
 Similar Strategy : Demobilishing
Traditional Opposition Through Force
 Demobilization of opposition through force
is a hallmark of dictatorships, which can
occur in democracies but often through
illegitimate or coercive means. Marcos and
Duterte demobilized traditional opposition
through abolishing Congress, shuttering pro-
opposition media, banning demonstrations,
and imprisoning opposition leaders.
 Duterte captured the legislature through a
supermajority in the House of
Representatives and weakening opponents in
the Senate, while also shuttering media
institutions. Both leaders used "enemies" as
mobilizing factors, such as communists, drug
users, and pushers. Marcos's dictatorship,
prevalent in the 1970s, has been labelled as
"bureaucratic authoritarianism.
 Duterte's regime uses force to quell dissent
and mobilize support, fostering a politics of
fear and a culture of violence. This has
resulted in over 20,000 deaths, making
Duterte's regime a de facto dictatorship,
even without the Marcos-style proclamation
of martial law.
 All this has fostered a politics of fear and a
culture of violence exactly what Marcos built
and what Duterte is rebuilding.
