The New Society Movement, also known as Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (KBL), was a political party in the Philippines that was associated with the authoritarian rule of Ferdinand Marcos. While the party did implement some regulations, it was also known for its crony capitalism, which often favored certain businesses.
