MARCOS POSITIVE OF WINNING

THE son of late Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos addressed hundreds of thousands of supporters on Saturday on the last day of presidential election campaigning, as polls showed him heading towards a landslide win.

But the prospect of Ferdinand Marcos jr moving into the presidential palace has alarmed rights activists, church leaders and political analysts. Up to 65 million Filipinos are eligible to vote today to decide on the successor to President Rodrigo Duterte.
