𝗔𝗞𝗕𝗔𝗬𝗔𝗡 𝗧𝗢 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗦: 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗕𝗘 𝗣𝗔𝗫 𝗦𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗔; 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗖𝗧 𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗧

Akbayan Party evaluates every major investment according to a consistent set of democratic, developmental, labor, environmental, and sovereignty principles. Investments should strengthen Philippine sovereignty, uphold ecological integrity, create decent work, develop domestic technological capabilities, respect workers' rights, promote peace, deepen democratic institutions, and contribute to a resilient and inclusive economy. Projects that advance these objectives deserve support. Those that undermine them should be opposed regardless whether they come from the United States, China, or anywhere else.

The Philippines should welcome investments that expand our industrial base, accelerate innovation, and enable Filipino workers and enterprises to move into higher-value industries. But investment alone does not constitute development. Foreign investments must generate meaningful technology transfer, quality employment, skills development, fair labor standards, responsible environmental stewardship, and opportunities for Filipino firms while avoiding one-sided economic dependency, excessive market concentration, and undue foreign influence over strategic sectors.

Akbayan therefore calls on Congress to conduct a comprehensive inquiry in aid of legislation to determine whether Pax Silica genuinely advances our national interest. The inquiry should examine its economic, technological, labor, environmental, national security, cybersecurity, and data governance implications; the transparency of its negotiations and incentives; its ownership structure and regulatory compliance; and the adequacy of safeguards against monopoly, undue foreign influence, and risks to critical infrastructure. It should likewise ensure full protection of workers' rights, including freedom of association and collective bargaining, and affirm that Philippine law shall govern, with all disputes falling exclusively within the jurisdiction of Philippine quasi-judicial bodies and courts.

The inquiry should also determine whether the project’s planned hyperscale data centers and supporting infrastructure will place unsustainable demands on our country’s electricity and water resources, contribute to the conversion of productive agricultural land, or impose unacceptable social and environmental costs on the host communities of Capas and Bamban. Congress must hear directly from local governments, workers, trade unions, farmers, indigenous people where applicable, environmental experts, civil society, and industry stakeholders before any long-term commitments are made.

Beyond this, public discussion on Pax Silica should become an opportunity for our country to push for a coherent industrial strategy that identifies the industries it seeks to build, the technologies it intends to develop, and the quality jobs it aims to create so that major investments reinforce a long-term national development agenda rather than define it.

For Akbayan, the issue has never been whether foreign investments come from the East or the West. The real question is whether it serves the Filipino people. Innovation must strengthen Philippine sovereignty, create shared prosperity, and advance a technologically capable, economically resilient, democratically governed, and socially just nation.

If you think the people in our government cares about the environment, Gina Lopez was kicked out from being the DENR secretary by 16 over 8 votes against her.

Within 10 months in her post, she closed 23 mining operations, banned open-pit mining and shut down half of the country's mining companies.

Unfortunately, members of the congressional committee decided to remove her, as some of the 16 members who voted are connected on the mining industry, which explains why most of mining operations resumed after Gina Lopez got fired.

This is one of the most disgusting examples of our politicians prioritizing their personal interest over environmental welfare.

If only Ma’am Gina Lopez were still here, ano kaya ang magiging situation ng environment natin ngayon? Baka mas marami pa sanang lugar ang naprotektahan, mas mahigpit ang laban para sa kalikasan, at mas may boses ang mga komunidad na naaapektuhan.

🎙️ but honestly, seventeen members really have so many good stories. i have friends who are close with seventeen and they tell me that they’re super loyal and kind
🎙️ they're such a big artist and you might expect them to act a certain way but i heard they don't have a single trace of that
👤they’re all just very down to earth and they are genuine people

👤 For a while, SVT was very busy, and first of all, they were not in Korea. But they still had to make an album and communicate with each other in a hurry, so in a slightly rougher way, there was no time for "arguing."

👤 So at one one time, a few years ago when they were in Southeast Asia, I specially flew to Southeast Asia to argue with them.

👤 If you watch SVT's documentary, there will be a scene where we are sitting in a hotel, surrounded by a circle, looking like we are seriously discussing, but in fact, I was the one who ran to argue with them. That is, we had to talk about many topics like "what are we thinking now? What do we want?" But at a certain stage, because there was really no time to argue properly, I directly ran to find them. I think this is really very important. Because in the end, the people who understand the album, the song, the lyrics, and everything else the most must be the artists themselves.

👤 To achieve this, one must get involved in their sweat and traces. This is extremely important at any time... I have always thought this way.

Forever thankful we have Bumzu hyung to grow up with them and being there with them through the different phase in their journey as an idol🥺🥺
