Expansion

As a researcher on Philippine history, the 1989 coup is worthy of a longer, in-depth article than what we currently see. As such, I will help embark on expanding this page to give justice to the events that transpired once I make standalone articles for the other coup plots. I am aiming to make chapters expanding the background, preparations and chronology of the coup, with in depth subsections on specific theaters.

If anybody is interested to help out, I definitely recommend the Davide Commission report: https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/1990/10/03/the-final-report-of-the-fact-finding-commission-october-1990/
