We are an Ilocano family, yung tatay ko taga-Norte but he never defended nor praised Marcos and he's not an apologist.

I am an Ilocano and I am against Marcos' burial at the LNMB. One cannot simply bury the wounds and anguish from his administration.

Ilocano ako pero di ako Marcos Loyalist.
Anti-Marcos ako pero di ako Pro-Aquino.
Di ako matalino pero di rin ako tanga.
