Who is BBM?
Ferdinand Marcos Jr, 64, known as "Bongbong", and more recently, "BBM", is the only son of the late dictator who ruled the Philippines for almost two decades until he was forced out of power by a peaceful popular revolt in 1986.
The British-educated younger Marcos began his over three-decade political career while his father was still in office, and was elected vice governor of their home province of Ilocos Norte in 1981 and governor in 1983.
Since his family's return from exile after fleeing the "people power" uprising, Marcos has been elected Ilocos Norte governor, congressman, and in 2010, as a senator.
He run for vice president in 2016, but lost by a small margin in a contest he claimed was rigged. He filed a case in the Supreme Court to overturn the results but the judges ruled against him.
He is married to lawyer Louise Araneta-Marcos, who also belongs to an influential family, with whom he has three sons, one of whom is running for congress next year.
WHY IS HE RUNNING?
After the Marcoses' fall from grace, the family has been trying to rebuild its image and has repeatedly denied allegations that it plundered billions of dollars of state wealth while in power, estimated in 1987 to be worth $10 billion.
Political analyst Ramon Casiple said this may be the family's last chance to attempt to return to power because time is not in its favour. Marcos's widow, Imelda, who is the formidable force behind the Marcoses' political machinery, is 92.
ALLEGATIONS AGAINST MARCOS SENIOR
"There are many positive things to talk about from during that time," Marcos told Reuters in 2016, when asked about oppression, plunder and failed government during his father's rule.
Later governments have documented 75,000 cases of torture, îllégâl detention and disappearances in those years. The rule by the senior Marcos and his wife Imelda has been called a kleptocratic "conjugal dictatorship".
The government has recovered just under a tenth of the wealth that the Marcos family and their associates are accused of plundering. Thousands of victims of torture, harassment, and forced disappearances during Marcos' were ρáíd compensation using around $600 million from Marcos Swiss bank accounts recovered by the government.
During martial law, 70,000 people were imprisoned, 34,000 were tortured, and 3,240 were killed, according to data from Amnesty International.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Marcos filed his candidacy on Wednesday, ahead of the Oct. 8 deadline.
Marcos said his party had planned to adopt President Duterte as the vice presidential running mate. But Duterte did not file his candidacy, saying he would retire from politics.
Marcos had been rumoured to be running in tandem with Duterte-Carpio, who however filed her candidacy on Saturday for another term as mayor of the southern city of Davao.
wí†hdráwals or substitution of presidential candidates are possible until mid-November. In 2015, Duterte made a last-minute change of heart, joining the presidential race that he won in 2016 by a wide margin.
