Does the proclamation of martial law has a great impact to the present time? There are good and bad effects of martial law? Before president Corazon Aquino philippines was one of the richest country in asia. It was said that the value of 2 pesos is equivalent to 1 dollar because of the leadership of president Ferdinand marcos. There’s a lot of benefits that we Filipinos recieved from the government but despite of all the good effect of martial law in this country there is also a bad effect of it. Example is may women was raped by the soldiers due to their abuse to their position.
If Marcos was not replaced by Corazon Aquino what will happens to the Philippines today? For me as a millennial who did not experience the martial law I think our country still one of the richest country in Asia and also we don’t need to lend money from other country most especially in china. We can also defend the West Philippine Sea because we can have a quality armor to defend our country.
Therefore we should look at the positive side of martial law because some of the Filipinos taught that martial law is not good for our country. “Do not forget that the armed forces are the servants of the people. You do not make national policy; it is we, the civilians, who decide these issues and it is your duty to carry out these tasks with which you are entrusted” If martial law can be re-enforced I will admit that martial law is the cause of peace and prosperity of our country. Our country will be peaceful by implementing martial law. The crime can be reduced here in our country and our country can also be prosperous
