Imee Marcos: "Sorry for uninentional Martial Law wounds."

, , , ,
On Wednesday, Ilocos Norte Governor Imee Marcos apologized to thousands of people who, according to her, were unintentionally hurt during the reign of his father, Ferdinand Marcos, and his declaration of Martial Law.

She was interviewed by ABSCBN morning TV program "Umagang Kay Ganda" and addressed the critics of her father that assert he does not deserve to be buried at the "Libingan ng mga Bayani."

"Sa totoo lang, ako, panay ang sorry ko sa sinumang nasaktan na hindi pagnanais, hindi sinasadya. Wala naman talagang perpektong tao, wala naman sa atin na walang pagkakasala, walang pagkakamali," Imee said.

"Sa akin, magaling iyung tatay ko. Sa kanila, galit sila. Huwag na tayong mag-debate. Kung nasa puso nila ang kapatawaran, ibigay nila. Pero iyung iba diyan, ang hinihinging apology e tantamount naman to legal admission of guilt and criminal penalties. Sa palagay ko naman mabigat iyun at hindi na kami papayagan ng abogado diyan," she added.

The governor claimed to the critics of their family that burying his father in the said cemetery conforms to President Rodrigo Duterte's desire for national unity.

"Mananawagan din tayo sa mga tumutuligsa na talaga namang kailangan sundan ang batas. Tumalima tayo sa hatol ng Korte Suprema... Higit sa lahat bigyan natin ng daan si Presidente Duterte sa kanyang panawagan sa unity, pagkakaisa, umpisa na ng paghihilom dahil wala na itong katapusang na away, alitan, bulok na pulitika," Imee said.


She also noted the good things that her father did for the Philippines and history would eventually prove these.

"Sabi ng tatay ko a long time ago doon sa isang interview, 'History is not done with me yet.' Iyung kasaysayan, mahaba talaga ang paningin. Naniniwala naman siya na sa puno't dulo e siguro, hahatulan siya ng mas maganda, hindi puro kasamaan," the governor said.

"Marami siyang infrastructure na nagawa na hanggang ngayon iyang mga kalsada pa rin ang ginagamit, marami siyang pinag-aral at iyung edukasyon, iyung libreng high school, siya ang nagtatag. Maraming irigasyon na ngayon ay hindi na nagagamit dahil hindi na na-maintain," she added.
