MANING PELAEZ, as he was fondly called, could recount in amazing detail the efforts of Danding Cojuangco in getting the coco levy enacted by Ferdinand Marcos.

In the winter of his life, Pelaez was morally and metaphysically certain who ordered his assassination and that man was operating under the orders of Marcos.
