"Unfortunately, I cannot report that the situation is improving," Marcos said Sunday (Monday in Manila). "The situation has become more dire than it was before."

He stopped in Hawaii to meet with US military leaders and the local Filipino community on his way home from an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit meeting in San Francisco.

The visit held both geopolitical and personal significance for Marcos. His father, Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr., was forced into exile in Hawaii in 1986 after he was ousted in a "people power" uprising.
