MARCOS JR.' FIRST SPEECH AT THE 77TH UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY 95% OF THE SEATS ARE EMPTY. DELEGATES REPORTEDLY STARTED LEAVING THE HALL AFTER HE ARRIVED.

The audience left just before Marcos was called to deliver his speech. These are world leaders and their national representatives who left because there is nothing that Marcos can tell them that they have not heard about. This is the forum where the guardianship of human rights, the approval of the International Criminal Court, the ratification of the International Covenants on Human Rights, the issues of environmental stewardship, and the sharing of economic resources are discussed and approved for the good of humanity. So what does the son of a plunderer, genocidal dictator, and evader of laws and human rights decisions have to tell them that may have a positive impact on humanity? His record and his family's record are all in international news. There is nothing new to be shared. Not even the mythical stories of Tallano Gold or Yamash*ta Treasure will dissuade them from leaving the venue. They do not want to hear lies often repeated. Sad.
Addendum:
NEWS: Addressing mostly empty seats at the 77th UN General Assembly, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. highlights topics of climate change, fair international system, agricultural productivity, and brings his call for “unity” to move and shape the world’s transformation.
