Imee Marcos says Marcos family to show their side of history

Senator and presidential sister Imee Marcos said that they don’t have plans to revise history but will only the side of the Marcos family.

“I don’t think that’s our effort at all, we will not revise anything, all we will do is to also make known, make public what we know our side of the story which we have perhaps been remiss in not telling simply because we were scared of the traditional media, of all the abuse, diatribe, the insult,” Imee said in an interview with ABS-CBN.

“So di na, naging tameme na. We’ll just tell our side of the story the best we can,” she said.

Imee added that her viral ‘Len-Len’ series was her way of responding to issues.

“I just couldn’t let it go. I would need to answer issues because a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth and that’s a dangerous proceeding,” she said.

“It’s very important to me to answer issues, to meet it head on. This is after all Headstart…I think it’s also Filipino political tradition that you have satire. You make fun, you take it in jest, it’s important that issues are ventilated and make known and 80.7 million agreed. Ang dami-daming nanood so that was great fun,” Imee added.

Imee vows that she will make sure that the new administration led by her brother will focus on poverty.

“I’m very very committed in mitigating, even ending poverty, it’s ambitious in these times but I’m one of those people who believe extreme hunger and poverty can be ended in our lifetime,” she said.

“I’m not giving up and I have 31 million votes behind the Marcos family that seem to believe the same thing,” Imee explained.
