VIC SOTTO, VICO SOTTO AT CONEY REYES
NO WONDER, Pasig City mayor-elect Vico Sotto has an impeccable sense of history, at least, on the dark ages in Philippine history sa ilalim ng rehimeng Marcos.
At 29, hindi pa tao noon ang anak nina Vic Sotto at Coney Reyes.
Sa pag-aaral niya ng tinapos na kursong Political Science from Ateneo de Manila University natutunan ang madilim na kasaysayan ng ating politika.
Vico’s recent tweet is a powerful appeal na tantanan na ang historical revisionism o ang sapilitang pagbabago ng kasaysayan. Sinamahan niya ito #MarcosNotAHero. We resonate Vico’s belief.
Pero noong nakaraang national elections, Imee Marcos’ getting into the Magic 12 seems to be a clear negation of the hero worship na iginagawad ng ilan sa ating mga mamamayan sa pamilya Marcos.
Balewala lang pala ang mga patung-patong na kasong kinakaharap ng mga miyembro nito as they have yet to face the music.
Bilib kami sa tapang ni Vico in much the same way that he only deserves to snatch the mayoral reign from his opponent, the formidable Bobby Eusebio.
For sure, Imee won’t take it sitting down. But what choice has she got? The stigma of what is left of her family’s despicable governance remains.
Isama na rito ang nagmana nito which eventually disappear into obscurity. Ang tagal.
