Singapore is not under Martial Law that's why they're progressive. Singaporean government is not corrupt like Marcos,Gloria,etc.

Yes, but more on like dictatorship especially pag start pa nila. Pila ka tuig nahimumg PM si LKY sa SG?

If mag tuo tah nga ang Systema RA JUD sa pang gobyerno maoy rason sa Progress, Pirting sayopa natu ana kay ang System One part ra na siya - ang pinaka importante nga part is ang mga tawo nga nagpatuman sa Systema ug ang mga TAwo nga musunod sa systema. Maoy dakung factor. If kitang mga tawo WALA kahibalo sa atung Papel, if mga Lider wa kahibalo sa ilang papel - Way kaugmaon ang nasud bisag unsa pang Systema ang sundon

"“I do not believe democracy necessarily leads to development. I believe what a country needs to develop is discipline more than democracy.”

"The Philippines had a rambunctious press but it did not check corruption. Individual press reporters could be bought, as could many judges. "

"The difference lies in the culture of the Filipino people. It is a soft, forgiving culture. Only in the Philippines could a leader like Ferdinand Marcos, who pillaged his country for over 20 years, still be considered for a national burial. Insignificant amounts of the loot have been recovered, yet his wife and children were allowed to return and engage in politics. They supported the winning presidential and congressional candidates with their considerable resources and reappeared in the political and social limelight after the 1998 election that returned President Joseph Estrada. General Fabian Ver, Marcos’s commander-in-chief who had been in charge of security when Aquino was assassinated, had fled the Philippines together with Marcos in 1986. When he died in Bangkok, the Estrada government gave the general military honors at his burial. One Filipino newspaper, Today, wrote on 22 November 1998, “Ver, Marcos and the rest of the official family plunged the country into two decades of lies, torture, and plunder. Over the next decade, Marcos’s cronies and immediate family would tiptoe back into the country, one by one – always to the public’s revulsion and disgust, though they showed that there was nothing that hidden money and thick hides could not withstand.” Some Filipinos write and speak with passion. If they could get their elite to share their sentiments and act, what could they not have achieved?"

daghan gani nangamatay para makuha ang demokrasya unya nag people power pa kay democracy is the best thing in the world. throughout history, freedom gyud na ang ipaglaban sa mga tao. kay wala kay kinabuhi kung walay democracy kung walay freedom.

katong gusto ug martial law try kuno ninyo ug rally pag pepole power para ibalik ang martial law. i bet mga boang ra mo apil.

being a PM is not dictatorship. PM man sad na sa England. successful ang Singapore kay dili sila under Martial Law, dili corrupt ang government like Marcos,Gloria, ang mga tao naay disiplina.

Marcos was brilliant. Unfortunately his sycophants were not and were only after enriching themselves at the expense of the people. His brilliance was no match to the schemes of the greedy people around him.

I'd say we need a leader with an iron fist. And followers who have only the nation's interest in mind and not their own.

Otherwise, the very old saying that 'only the rich become richer and the poor poorer' will remain true.

I agree Marcos was brilliant.......and the greatest theif of all time all because of Martial Law.
