The Man in Dau
By Carlo G. Soldevillla
Written on May 6, 2019

Early dawn today, I met a man in Dau,
Like me, he’s a passenger waiting for a bus, but I never bothered to ask where will he go.

He’s got a Master Sergeant (retired) brother, a U.S. veteran who fought for the U.S. in both Korean War and Vietnam War.
He (the man in Dau) was sharing or talking about wars –the root of which--the looted gold by the soldiers of Japan when the economy and the power of Japan was that strong prior to World War II.

The man in Dau shared to me this:
“In 1935, Japan had 500 war boats while U.S. had only 300.”…
….so Japan was decisive in entering into war, under-estimating the strength of U.S.

He said and I quote, “But during the war, when the Allied forces combined or joined forces, the Allied forces’ boat exceeded that of Japan.

Much more, what really led to Japan’s downfall was the throwing of the Atomic bomb.”

The thing that the man in Dau, Pampanga shared to me which I cannot forget is that search of mine for an answer—
About who killed Ninoy.
He was honest (I believe) in telling me that it’s the CIA -That’s according to his (old man in Dau) brother.

I won’t mention his brother’s name, and for privacy purposes, I may only give a code: CGD
He said, while Ninoy was walking down the stairs from the plane, the fouth (4th) media man at the back of Ninoy holding a camera was the one who triggered the shot.

What was it ? You may ask, and how the thing was done.
The old man in Dau, aging 82, told me that the U.S. camera has a hole in it where a 50-caliber bullet can pass, and it
can be triggered by clicking the carmera…. Thus, ‘splintering’ Ninoy’s skull.

Your long seasrch about the assassination of Ninoy or finding the assassin can be answered by reading this poem if I have to believe what he’s (man in Dau) telling me. For me, to seriously doubt him is a thing which I won’t welcome or entertain.

History would show that Ninoy had been to Boston
In U.S. , he was given an asylum, perhaps with the condition---
That he won’t ever return to the Philippines-- but this he (Ninoy) disobeyed.
Death, then, was the consequence..(It’s just like one person giving a stern warning ‘Never do that or else…” …and a bad consequence could happen . Or you may picture a person, who, in the end would say ‘You never listened to my warning …and as I told you…..’

Perhaps, Ninoy desired to come home to become the country’s president….
…and when he becomes President, he might facilitate the finding of the Yamashita treasures ‘carried’ by Admiral Yamamoto’s fleet.
Perhaps U.S. knew so much about the war of the Philippines against Spain and where the Katipunero’s treasures went…
…And situations like this (lost of treasures)…as one would know that the revolutionary wealth were entrusted to Luna, kept by Isidra, …and the U.S. does not want or allow such thing (treasures lost) to be repeated.

When U.S. gets the gold, it means something to their economy.- ‘Lo, prosperity to behold?’

Now my search is over based on the Old Man in Dau’s testimony.
I just wish for the Philppines to recover and become strong, striving to become a righteous nation so blessings will ever flow to this country.

Thanks to that man in Dau.
Hearing him talk made my heart glad. The thing he shared was quite something new.

I was not like Forrest Gump, listening to him.
I just used to make friends with people—rich and poor alike, lending my ears to them to listen to their story.
That stranger I met – the old Filipino man in Dau, I don’t know now where is he or where he was bound or where he can be found,
but thanks to him, he was instrumental and he was holding the answer for my search. As some people may say… “Finally my search is over.”.
