Ferdinand Marcos was the President of the Philippines from 1965 to 1986. While he implemented some economic reforms and infrastructure projects, his authoritarian rule was marked by corruption, human rights abuses, and the assassination of his main political opponent, Benigno Aquino Sr. in 1983. Mass protests over the assassination contributed to the People Power Revolution in 1986, which saw Marcos removed from power and exiled in Hawaii as it was discovered he had embezzled billions of public dollars.
