I have always associated the month of September with the anniversary of the declaration of martial law. The First Quarter Storm (FQS) which started in 1970 was a period of heightened student activism. My own personal life was deeply affected by the events before martial law and afterwards. I was familiar with student activism because I was president of the La Salle Student Council only a couple of years before the FQS. After I graduated from the Asian Institute of Management in 1970, I worked in ABS-CBN Broadcasting Corporation handling special assignments as assistant to the president. These assignments ranged from doing financial analysis and projections to being the field coordinator for the Bilang ng Bayan, which was the equivalent of the Operation Quick Count for the 1970 and 1971 elections.
