As clamor grows, cleansing at all levels must follow

|August 20, 2025
Floods have long subsided in most areas, but a new tide is rising in the countrypublic resolve to cleanse the bureaucracy.
-
What began as a lone exposé by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has now ignited a powerful wave of support for truth, justice, and reform. His revelations about botched flood control projects—and the launch of the Sumbong sa Pangulo platformhave stirred the conscience of a nation that has long been battered by corruption, inefficiency, and indifference. The demand for accountability has moved from whispers in barangays to bold declarations in boardrooms and command centers.
Now, two major pillars of leadership are the latest to add their voice to the growing clamor: the Association of Generals and Flag Officers (AGFO) and the Mayors for Good Governance. Make no mistake, these groups represent discipline, experience, and the local pulse of the people. Their unified call for a thorough investigation of these failed projects is an endorsement of the President’s campaign for clean governance and a message to every government office and every crooked contractor that the era of impunity must endnot tomorrow, but now.
