"5 star rating is on how it was written. I'm not an apologist. I am curious about his thoughts on why he declared martial law. His idea of New Society felt out of touch. Was he not aware that it is his family & cronies excesses and plunder on why there was the rebellion of the poor? He likened the fruits of declaring martial law with Jacobin revolution... I absolutely do not agree. Then he regarded the youth who were traumatized with ML like fusspots.. I cannot..
But just dwelling on the "New Society ", that is what we dream. Just sad that even after 50 years, our country is still trapped in that old society. We almost had it, but his son won."
