Imelda bday bash in Rizal Hall of Malacaňang: Why people were taken aback: Post-dictatorship, the ceremonial halls in Malacaňang stopped being the personal party ballroom and dancing floor of the Marcoses and reverted to being dedicated to official functions. If the ceremonial halls are now going to be used for personal “family affairs” such as the bday party, “blowing of cake” (see Mme. Imelda bday program) of Mme. Imelda and Marcos family members, then, for clarification purposes, a directive amending previous directives should be issued therefor

            Unanswered questions about the Marcos unexplained wealth (see seized assets by the PCGG and more assets being sought from the Marcoses by the PCGG as ill-gotten wealth) exemplified by the most recent sighting of the missing Picasso painting caught on camera displayed in the living room of Imelda Marcos last May when P.MarcosJr and son dropped by to visit, a colorful canvas of unexplained wealth made possible by the despotic rule of the Marcoses for twenty years — contextualize why people were taken aback by the  Imelda birthday  bash in Rizal Hall of Malacaňang: Post-dictatorship, the ceremonial halls in Malacaňang stopped being the personal party ballroom and dancing floor of the Marcos family and reverted to being dedicated to official functions. If the ceremonial halls  are now going to be used for personal “family affairs” such as the birthday party and “blowing of cake” (see Mme. Imelda bday program) of Imelda Marcos and members of the Marcos family, then, for clarification purposes, a directive amending previous directives should be issued therefor.
