Marcos bids goodbye to his 'mentor' Tito Johnny
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. honored the late Juan Ponce Enrile during a necrological service at Malacañang Palace, recalling him as a mentor.
Marcos Jr. shared that he and his father had a close relationship with Enrile, who was once his father's minister of defense.
The President highlighted Enrile as one of the few individuals his father, the late President Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr., truly listened to.
Marcos Jr. recalled that he initially expected an awkward transition after their family's return to the Philippines from exile in Hawaii, given their opposing roles after the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution.
However, he noted their relationship transitioned smoothly, and they began working together as congressmen in the 14th Congress.
