    @ Rosco- here's one documentary about it -- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ikIYr3O8OM" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ikIYr3O8OM</a> Let me know what you think! :) I wasn't born around the Marcos regime so most of my knowledge are only based on history books, and documentaries. We really can't know for sure what really happened around that time but you make a very good point on how his bestfriends or relatives should know about these things. :)

    @ Rosco - well, that is a good point. But these stories are based on documentaries of witness accounts and an interview with the treasure hunter’s son. Let me try to find the link of the documentary so I could send it to you. In some documentaries, journalists were able to come across the family’s Swiss bank accounts. They concluded that they hid their fortune very well. But then again, we really can’t tell for sure. Some people take their secrets to the grave. I’ll try to find the link then you decide 🤔

    @ Rosco - yes that is true, I saw on a documentary that the our former president, Marcos, actually found out about the local treasure hunters. So he issued a “permit system” wherein all the treasure hunters should send their details, address, and the location of the said treasure so that they will be issued permits for their operations. That is actually how he found the “haystack”. Since searching for buried treasure is always just like finding a needle in a haystack but not knowing where the haystack is. He confiscated a golden buddha statue from a poor treasure hunter. Then when this treasure hunter told the media about it, and the issue blew up, he returned a fake statue to the treasure hunter. The treasure hunter knew it was fake because the original buddha that was confiscated, had a “removable” head, and inside the statue, there were diamonds. Yes, a golden buddha about 4ft high, was filled with diamonds. What was returned to him was a fake statue with no “removable head”, and sadly, no diamonds.

    Buried Treasure
    Are there any stories about buried treasure in your country? Have you heard stories about people finding treasure in your country? Tell us about it!

    In my country, there are a lot of stories about Japanese treasure buried in almost all of our islands. According to stories, news reports, and witness accounts, our country, the Philippines, is where the Japanese soldiers buried all the loot from the 2nd world war! Also, a lot of reports from both past and present states that there are actually a lot of people who “accidentally” discovered buried treasure on their farm lands.

    What are the stories in your country? 🤔

    @ Polina - yes!! I’m a Michael Jackson fan too! He was one of my choices for this question actually. Up to now, most of my playlists are dedicated to all of his songs! He’s just too talented! No one ever came close to the way he performs. Just pure perfection down to the last tiny details. It’s actually sad that he’s misjudged in this society. I would also love to hear about who he really was in real life, but I’m sure he has a kind heart with the best intentions. Really breaks my heart how people misjudged him and how the media crucified him when he was alive 😔
