-
In 2025, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. transformed challenges into triumphs, proving that true leadership means action, accountability, and unwavering commitment to the welfare of the Filipino people.
The President was at the forefront of reforms to fight systemic corruption and strengthen the foundation of good governance.
From rooting out corruption to bolstering resilience, his administration redefined good governance, ensuring no Filipino is left behind.
JUSTICE IN ACTION
In his powerful fourth State of the Nation Address on July 28, he thundered, "Mahiya naman kayo sa inyong kapwa Pilipino!" condemning anomalous flood-control projects and demanding transparency and holding those responsible to account.
He launched the "Sumbong sa Pangulo" website and DPWH Transparency Portal, empowering citizens to assess projects in their area and report irregularities. He also conducted inspections of flood control projects.
To probe a decade of fund misuse and exact accountability, the President established the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI). The President realigned budgets, pursued recovery of stolen funds, and backed Ombudsman charges and arrests.
PROMISE FULFILLED: P20 BIGAS TO REACH 15-M FAMILIES
The nationwide rollout of the Benteng Bigas Meron Na program, a fulfillment of the President's campaign promise, will reach 15 million households by 2026.
The flagship food-security program, will not only benefit vulnerable sectors, but increase access to affordable rice and support palay farmgate prices.
