Hi, I would like to request for information regarding the history of the Philippines national debt, budget and expenditures during 1965 to 1985, the late Ferdinand Marcos time. This document will hopefully shed a light on the 
real economic status of the said period.
I strongly believe that this age, is the defining moment of the Philippines and us the Filipinos we must not remain  ignorant so as not to be fooled once again by politicians who put their own and political interest above else.
Thank you.

You asked for Philippines National Debt.

Response to Request

The National Government Debt Report reflects end-1986 data, which approximates the recorded debt of the Marcos administration. You may retrieve your requested information from the Bureau of the Treasury website at https://www.treasury.gov.ph/?page_id=12407.

Please note that only in 1986, the E.O. 127 was imposed which mandates the Bureau of the Treasury to include the recording of public borrowings on its tasks.
