- Description:
- The issue tackles the increased stifling of condemnation by the democratic people under the guise of a "free and open debate". This is through the allowance of access to mass media to vent the people's grievances with the government, which are consequently filtered out given Marcos' power over these media outlets. This would eventually be brought up to the Supreme court on several occasions, to no desirable outturn.The government was compared to the MAKAPILI and KALIBAPI movements during the Japanese occupation, with face-value nationalistic objectives that concealed informers and opportunists for the Japanese authority. Other problems were covered in the issue, such as the suppression of political freedom in academic institutes, as well as violent disputes between the government and the democratic people in Mindanao.
