BATAC, Philippines — More than two decades after former President Ferdinand Marcos died in disgrace in Hawaii, the Philippine government says it is formally considering his family’s long-standing demand for a burial with honors in a cemetery reserved for presidents and other prominent figures.
His widow, Imelda, has refused to bury him elsewhere, and his body is now preserved in a back-lit transparent box in a hushed mausoleum open to the public here in his hometown in the northern Philippines.
