Marcos offers 'hand of reconciliation'

(UPDATE) LAOAG CITY, Ilocos Norte: President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Saturday issued a reconciliatory message to his political adversaries, as the country commemorated the anniversary of the EDSA People Power Revolution that toppled his father's regime 37 years ago

'As we look back to a time in our history that divided the Filipino people, I am one with the nation in remembering those times of tribulation and how we came out of them united and stronger as a nation,' Marcos said in a Twitter post.
