By: Katrina Hallare - 7 years ago

With his parents by his side, Ferdinand Alexander “Sandro” Marcos celebrated a momentous occasion in his life as he finished graduate school.

The son of former senator Bongbong Marcos posted on Instagram this Tuesday that he has completed his Master’s Degree in Development Studies at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

After “endless sessions in the library until early morning”, the young Marcos was proud to harvest the fruits of his labor, donning his graduation cap and gown while posing with the former lawmaker and his mother, Liza Araneta-Marcos.

“At the end of the day, I could not have done any of this without these two people by my side. Thanks Mom and Dad for the constant support (and occasional push),” the young Marcos said.

MSc in Development Studies ✅. Finally, the conclusion to endless sessions in the library until early morning. At the end of the day, I could not have done any of this without these two people by my side. Thanks Mom and Dad for the constant support (and occasional push). Never going to forget everything I’ve learned from this amazing university, on to the next challenge! 🎓
