Close of placards STORYLINE: Hundreds of protesters marched near the presidential palace in Manila on Saturday morning to mark the 100th day in office of Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Anti-riot police blocked the protesters, who held a huge banner with the inscription "100 days with no action to the crisis, Marcos the citizens are suffering!" Marcos Jr., 65, has inherited daunting problems, including a coronavirus pandemic-battered economy, soaring inflation, unemployment and mounting foreign and domestic debt, in addition to longstanding poverty and decades-old insurgencies. The namesake son of the dictator who was ousted in a 1986 pro-democracy uprising amid widespread human rights atrocities and plunder, he has defended his father’s legacy. Marcos Jr. received more than 31 million votes of the more than 55 million votes cast in the May 9 election - a stunning political comeback and a massive victory that will provide him political capital as he faces tremendous challenges as well as doubts arising from his father's reputation. It was the first majority presidential victory in the Philippines in decades. In terms of foreign policy, a key focus in his first months in office has been to rekindle U.S.-Philippines relations. But many say he is failing to address problems at home. The Philippines has been among the countries worst-hit in Asia by the two-year pandemic after more than 60,000 deaths and extended lockdowns sent the economy to its worst recession in 2020 since World War II and worsened poverty, unemployment, hunger and the country's indebtedness. As the pandemic was easing early this year, Russia's invasion of Ukraine sent global inflation soaring and sparked fears of food and oil shortages. =========================================================== Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: info@aparchive.com Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWork Twitter:   / ap_archive   Facebook:   / aparchives   ​​ Instagram:   / apnews   You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/you...
