Hindi umattend sa impeachment. Hindi sumunod sa NBI subpoena. Hindi sumunod sa mga COA rules. Hindi umattend sa budget hearing. VP Sara does not respect the government of which she is a part. Bakit natin siya gagawing Presidente?
since recorded history, the Philippines has always been hit by storms and typhoons. it’s simply part of our geography and thats just our normal reality. what SHOULDN'T be normal is how unprepared we still are after all the multitude of weather disturbances the country has faced throughout the decades. the government should've treated flood control/storm-proofing our towns,cities and infrastructures as a national priority a long time ago. instead of quick fixes or short-term projects [panakip butas], the public need real investments in proper drainage systems, floodways, dikes, and sustainable city planning that could actually protect and benefit the people.
now our people continue to deal with the mess and aftermath every year. it's truly depressing to see how funds (each peso that most Filipinos struggled to make) meant for these projects often ends up wasted on these “ghost” flood control programs and pocketed by these shameless corrupt officials. PEOPLE KEEP LOSING HOMES, LIVELIHOODS AND LOVED ONES EVERY TYPHOON SEASON and it’s sadly the same story every single damn year.
if our government had just taken action decades ago, committed to long-term plans and have passed laws to guarantee that taxpayers’ hard-earned money was used the right way. the Philippines could already be a much safer and more RESILIENT country.
a country where we no longer fear every single storm that comes our way, where safety isn't a privilege and where resilience doesn't have to always mean constant survival.
fuck every ghost projects esp those people behind it. while theyre sleeping comfortably, there are people out there suffering. sana matupad na po wish mo @karadavid :)
FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE. The Sierra Madre mountain range serves as Luzon's natural fortress. It's the Philippines' first line of defense against climate-induced disasters such as tropical cyclones. Losing her will cause more trouble. Protect her as she does us. #UwanPH#FungWong
HOW CORRUPTION MAY HAVE COST LIVES.
188 dead and rising. The worst flash flood in the history of the province. Cebu has 414 flood control projects worth to P26.7 billion from 2022 to 2025 - meant to protect our people, homes and livestock. What happened?!
At hindi lang ito sa Cebu province, buong Pilipinas binabaha dahil ninanakaw lang naman ang flood control.
Extreme weather conditions will only worsen. It is a part of the world we live in today. What breaks my heart is seeing how our people are suffering because of systemic corruption.
Nakaka-awa ang ordinaryong Pilipino. Habang nagdurusa sa hirap at kalamidad, maraming pulitiko naliligo sa nakaw na yaman.
PLEASE. STOP. STEALING.
