Philippines’ Marcos on Building a Legacy of His Own
Heir to the Philippines’ most famous political dynasty, President Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr has had to contend with the complicated history of his family name. Now with two years left in his single-term presidency, Marcos is facing the economic consequences of a rupture in global geopolitics, a rapidly changing technological landscape, and a growing feud at home with his Vice President Sara Duterte, who is herself a successor of another prominent political family. In this latest episode of Latitude, the Philippine president opens up to Bloomberg’s Haslinda Amin on how he is forging ahead to try and build a legacy of his very own.
