Hello Corruption Watchers! @here Anti-corruption groups have announced their plan to hold a rally against abuse of power on the week of the EDSA People Power Anniversary. Will you be there? Here are details from the presscon yesterday, covered by civic engagement specialist @MJ Catequista - Rappler: https://www.rappler.com/philippines/national-news/trillion-peso-march-launch-edsa-revolution-anniversary-february-2026/

It is telling that Marcoses’ allies are not touched by the inquiries, even though there has been much evidence, including Rappler’s numerous in-depth articles, that proves that this family is worth looking into. The proliferation of political dynasties in the Philippines is a problem; the normalization of public officials being involved with corporate businesses is another.
