AI notes: Ferdinand Marcos, former president and dictator of the Philippines, died in exile on September 28, 1989, in Honolulu, Hawaii, at age 72 due to multiple organ failure. Ousted in 1986 by the peaceful People Power Revolution after two decades of authoritarian rule marked by martial law, corruption, and human rights abuses, Marcos fled to the United States with his family. The Philippine government initially barred the return of his remains, but they were eventually brought back in 1993. In 2016, his burial at the Libingan ng mga Bayani sparked nationwide protests and renewed debate over his controversial legacy.
