MANILA, Philippines — Vice President Jejomar Binay still believes that the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos should be buried with military honors at his hometown in Batac, Ilocos Norte.
Speaking to reporters after he attended the 2014 Bagong Bayani Awards held at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) on Monday, Binay said this was his recommendation to President Benigno Aquino before when the Chief Executive asked him to do a study on a House resolution in 2011 allowing the burial of Marcos at the Libingan ng mga Bayani.
“(Sa aking palagay, puede rin, tama pa rin ang naging recommendation (I think the recommendation is right),” Binay told reporters, when asked if this was still his recommendation in light of new calls by Marcos’ son, Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., for the burial of his father, who died in Sept. 28,1989 in exile in Hawaii, at the heroes’ cemetery in Taguig City, Metro Manila.
