The landslide victory of Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in the May 9 2022 presidential election marks the return of the Marcos clan, 36 years after the fall of dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr. While President Marcos Jr. aims to “restore the image” of his family, he will quickly face multiple contradictions, particularly in managing institutions charged with recovering the money stolen by his family. In addition, he will have to face the economic crisis linked to the post-covid situation and the war in Ukraine: the fight against inflation, the food crisis and the national education crisis are priority issues for the Marcos administration. President Marcos Jr. seems to want to appease the Philippines’ international relations by moving away from his predecessor’s insults and invectives towards the West, especially the United States, while developing its economic relations with China
