Sa loob ng dalawang oras, walong libong tao ang kanilang inaresto.
00:09.4
Mga senador, mga mahayang, estudyante at labor leaders.
00:15.1
Nangyari ang lahat ng ito, dalawang araw lang ang nakalipas.
00:20.0
Ang mga sinanggay, ang mga pangangangay, ang mga pangangangay,
00:26.1
Nangyari ang lahat ng ito, dalawang araw lang ang nakalipas
00:30.1
mula ng nilagdaan ang Martial Law noong September 21, 1972 sa Pilipinas.
00:55.1
Ipinakulong ni Marcos ang sino mang kumontra sa kanyang pagdeklara ng Martial Law.
01:00.1
Nilusog din ng mga sundalo ang mga opisina ng pahayagan, radyo at telebisyon.
01:08.1
Pagkagising ng mahamayang Pilipinos sa umaga,
01:11.1
wala nang mabasang diyan,
01:13.1
nilusog din ng mga sundalo ang mga opisina ng pahayagan, radyo at telebisyon.
01:20.1
Pagkagising ng mahamayang Pilipinos sa umaga,
01:24.1
wala nang mabasang diyan,
01:26.1
mapakinggan sa radyo,
01:28.1
at mapanood sa telebisyon.
01:31.1
Yung pinakamalaking broadsheet, yung Manila Times.
01:34.1
Pakatapos noon, yung Taliba.
01:37.1
Tapos, noon malaki ang Chronicle.
01:41.1
Malaki din ang, what, Herald.
01:46.1
All the major newspapers were shut down.
01:48.1
In fact, even the minor newspapers were shut down.
01:51.1
After a few weeks,
01:54.1
mag-umpisang lumabas ulit yung mga Daily Express, first of all.
02:01.1
Tapos, yun ang mga,
02:03.1
di arin, ang may-ari ay malapit o pura tayag na suminod sa kagustuhan ni Marcos.
02:11.1
Mayroon ding isang Ministry of Public Information
02:16.1
siyang magpatapatupad ng mga iba't-ibang mga decrees
02:21.1
o batas na sariling gawa ni Marcos
02:25.1
para controlin ang media.
02:29.1
Mayroon yung military censorship na umpisa
02:33.1
na kailangan lahat ng mga materiales na pinapublish
02:38.1
o pinapakita sa television
02:41.1
ay kailangan tingnan nila ng mga censors ng militar.
02:47.1
Ang martial law, eh, di kami.
02:50.1
Nasa karsada noon.
02:52.1
Inihintay namin ang mga senador na sa Plaza Miranda.
02:56.1
Eh, kahintay namin. Walang dumarating.
02:59.1
At naubusan ako ng sasabihan.
03:01.1
Sabi, habaan mo pa, habaan mo pa.
03:03.1
Pasama namin sila, Edicio de la Torre,
03:05.1
at saka sila, Romy Capulong.
03:07.1
Habaan pa rin akong nang-habaan.
03:09.1
Eh, na-arresto na pala sila ng Hinoy.
03:12.1
At sinara na pala ang kongreso.
03:16.1
At noon, eh, walang radyo.
03:19.1
Buksan mo lahat ng stasyon ng radyo,
03:22.1
wala kang madinig.
03:23.1
At wala ng peryodiko.
03:26.1
Bigla yun, nawalan.
03:30.1
Doon kami nenerbius.
03:32.1
At tumawag sakin yung pamangkin ni Senator Taniada,
03:35.1
si Ted Siam, Charito Marcial Luna.
03:39.1
Mayroong 11 o so.
03:42.1
You know, some of the guys in the group
03:45.1
were going to go out to get cigarettes, siguro.
03:47.1
They came back running.
03:48.1
They said, your house is surrounded outside.
03:50.1
You're full of military.
03:54.1
And we, you know,
03:56.1
mom and dad were in the room,
03:57.1
and we told them there's, uh,
03:59.1
there are military soldiers.
04:01.1
And what they did was they went to their bathroom and peeped
04:04.1
because from their bathroom on the second floor
04:06.1
they could look down and they saw.
04:08.1
So dad went down in his night robe.
04:11.1
He and mommy were already resting, no?
04:14.1
And the soldiers said,
04:16.1
well, sir, we are inviting.
04:19.1
That was the Marcos way of putting you in jail.
04:23.1
It was an invitation one could not refuse.
04:26.1
So being the lawyer that he was,
04:28.1
dad said, okay, where's the warrant?
04:30.1
Of course, no warrant.
04:32.1
It was just an invitation to the camp.
04:34.1
Mom had to go to a neighbor's house
04:39.1
because our phone had been cut.
04:41.1
And when we checked,
04:42.1
mommy called up, uh,
04:45.1
I think also called up Chino Ross,
04:48.1
and he had also been taken.
04:50.1
So that was when we realized
04:53.1
that dad was, uh,
04:56.1
you know, was in for some time.
04:59.1
I was arrested on November 27,
05:02.1
about two months later.
05:04.1
They rounded up about 17,000
05:07.1
so-called political prisoners
05:10.1
because they were not charged.
05:13.1
They were not given a charge sheet.
05:16.1
But they were just detained
05:18.1
and hidden in Camp Crane,
05:24.1
and other camps here in the Philippines.
05:27.1
I was just in the prison
05:30.1
when a captain and a major
05:36.1
who was with the Presidential Security Command
05:40.1
came to me and said,
05:43.1
Sir, can we invite you for questioning?
05:46.1
And I asked how many hours.
05:48.1
Ah, just a few hours.
05:50.1
But that overnight lasted four years,
05:53.1
ten months, and three days.
05:57.1
Because of martial law,
05:59.1
you can arrest and imprison people
06:02.1
who do not comply with you.
06:04.1
But what does martial law really mean?
06:08.1
The military law is a type of government
06:14.1
that has a big military role.
06:17.1
And in the history of the Philippines,
06:22.1
the Congress was called,
06:24.1
the courts were closed,
06:26.1
the civilian courts,
06:28.1
and when it comes to law,
06:30.1
it is done by one person,
06:32.1
the President, the dictator.
06:34.1
Those who are arrested,
06:36.1
those who are suspected,
06:38.1
those who fight in the government,
06:41.1
are handled by the military tribunal.
06:45.1
The courts formed by generals and colonels
06:49.1
prosecute military men as well.
06:52.1
So that is the essence of military law.
06:56.1
Yes, the gun is pointed at the citizens.
06:59.1
The President is the king
07:01.1
when the gun is pointed at him.
07:05.1
So in order to save society,
07:07.1
he had to declare martial law
07:09.1
and institute reforms.
07:11.1
And there was also a fake ambush.
07:14.1
Secretary Juan Ponson Rille admitted
07:18.1
when he was Minister of National Defense
07:20.1
that the ambush was fake
07:22.1
of his own in Wakwak Subdivision.
07:24.1
There was a fake bombing inside Manila
07:26.1
and that is what Marcos used
07:33.1
as to why he was declaring martial law.
07:38.1
In the beginning,
07:40.1
many welcomed martial law
07:42.1
because they said there was discipline.
07:44.1
And there was discipline in the streets,
07:47.1
especially in driving, in traffic.
07:49.1
I know that opportunity has been knocking at the door
07:54.1
For the Filipino people
07:57.1
to rise up on their own
08:00.1
and build a new nation.
08:23.1
Thank you for watching!
