FACT: FP Duterte exposed “ghost projects” in 2020. ZERO 🥚big arrests followed. Explain that. Duterte talked tough on “ghost projects” in 2020, audits ordered, a task force created, engineers fired, congressmen named. But facts matter: not a single big fish was arrested under his watch. ₱73B worth of projects...

A CALL FOR FORMAL INVESTIGATION RE: PULONG DUTERTE’S 51 BILLION INFRA BUDGET Seriously? How much more evidence do we need to have in order to finally have an investigation on the 51 Billion infrastructure project of Congressman Pulong Duterte? In yet another document — the DPWH Leaks say that 14 out of 16 line items requested by Congressman Pulong Duterte were granted in the 2020 General Appropriations Act. Zaldy Co first exposed the 51 billion budget if Pulong Duterte… then, even the late Undersecretary Cabral confirmed this under oath. What the hell are we still waiting for? I think the attacks of the Duterte vloggers came too early. Lol! They are too busy labelling congressmen and senators “magnanakaw” after the list of allocable/ DPWH leaks surfaced. Following their logic —- are they going to call Sara Duterte “magnanakaw” too? At least according to this report, 1.5 BILLION! 16 PROJECTS for Sara Zimmerman Duterte and 4 for the fugitive and known Duterte ally Harry Roque! I wonder how the Duterte vloggers will twist this!

Duterte trolls are working overtime to flood online publics with a narrative that draws the attention away from the involvement of the Duterte administration in the flood corruption scandal. Over the last few days, they’ve been dragging even Mayor Vico Sotto into the mud for choosing the House inquiry (over then Duterte-led Senate) and effectively revealing to the public that the Discaya testimony cannot be trusted (to the disappointment of those who wanted to shield the Senators). But who pays for the trolls? And with what money? Kickbacks too from ghost projects? Gisang-gisa nanaman tayo sa sariling mantika! As Duterte influence in government weakens and they become increasingly more desperate, they continue to cling to any scandal like driftwood, clawing for relevance while four fingers point back at them. What Filipinos want is accountability that cuts deep and wide— bottom to top, across all dynasties and factions, no exemptions for this or the past administrations.

Sara Duterte should get a new spokesperson, no one is buying the Zaldy Co video The basic principle of statement in parts — you have to make sure that your next one is better than the last or you will lose the interest of your audience. To Sara Duterte’s dismay, the Zaldy Co “exposè” is a dud. The more he does it, the more social media finds inconsistencies in his stories. Videos as bargaining chips? Why am I not surprised? I think Zaldy Co and Sara Duterte both underestimated the intelligence of Filipinos — the smirk on Sara Duterte in her recent interviews felt as if she’s already celebrating. Only to find out that no one is rallying behind their back. The fact remains, those he is accusing of are here and he is the one in hiding. And unless he comes home, nothing he says will stand in court and shouldn’t be taken seriously. Today, even Majority Leader Sandro Marcos sent a letter to the Independent Commission on Infrastructure saying that he is willing to face any investigation anytime — why wouldn’t he? The Zaldy Co claims against him are laughable to say the least! It is as if Zaldy Co just made a list of projects and prayed that people will buy his story — you cannot even find them in the DPWH list of projects. Some are even in Davao. Please make it make sense. Lols. The same is true with the alleged letter sent to the President — even you can do that and claim the same. It’s just a letter! After Kiko Barzaga who is now “laos”, they now have Zaldy Co — who is next? When will Sara Duterte accept that she will never be President? 1. No one wants someone who is psychologically disturbed to lead the Philippines and its military forces 2. After his father, no one wants to another China-lap dog for a President

Yes! The Dutertes failed Davao City. Contrary to the 2016 campaign of the former President Duterte, Davao City has a lot of problems and I dare say that if I compare it to others? It is not living to its great potential. One of my first assignments fresh out of college was our satellite office in Davao City. I was there every Thursday of the week and would return to Manila by Saturday. I did that for two years. After six long years of the Duterte presidency and thirty plus years of Duterte reign in Davao City… nothing much has changed, huh? I went to Davao City twice in the past three months -the airport is still problematic (no aircon, disorganized, filthy), the city looks the same to me. And compared to how fast Cebu City develops? It seems as though Duterte failed Davao City. In the press conference of the House of Representatives yesterday, the Young Guns called out the Vice President for blaming the current administration for the flood in Davao City. Congressman Jill Bongalon cited the 51 Billion DPWH fund of Congressman Pulong Duterte during the Duterte administration, if flooding is indeed a problem there… Why didn’t he prioritize that? Imagine! 51 billion pesos in one district?! Then the Vice President would have the audacity to blame the national government for things her family cannot do? Just like Congressman Bongalon, who is also the Vice Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations, I would like to know the infrastructure projects done with the 51 billion fund allotted to his district. Maybe the government agencies can also check who the contractors of those projects are. That’s a lot of money! The 51 billion was aside from the enormous IRA or Internal Revenue Allotment of the LGU fund that was then headed by the Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte. Davao City deserves better! Amping Kanunay, Davaoeñoes!

The time for action is now! We demand with urgency for the government to arrest the former President Rodrigo Duterte! We demand with urgency for the government to arrest Senator Bong Go! We demand with urgency for the government to arrest Senator Bato dela Rosa! We demand with urgency for the government to arrest everyone else who led and masterminded the extra-judicial killings committed by the Duterte administration! We also demand the government to extend the necessary protection for the former Police Colonel Royina Garma and preserve her life as one of the most significant witnesses against Rodrigo Duterte, Bong Go and their circle of murderers. At this time, the Filipinos have nothing but anger and the strongest call yet for accountability against these murderers. In a startling testimony before the House Quad Committee, former Colonel Royina Garma has directly implicated former President Rodrigo Duterte in orchestrating extrajudicial killings (EJKs) during his administration. According to Garma, Duterte personally directed the creation of a national task force aimed at replicating the notorious “Davao Model” of anti-drug operations, which incentivised police officers to kill suspects through a reward system. These revelations are seen as some of the most damning evidence to date, as Garma's affidavit describes how Duterte, along with Senator Christopher "Bong" Go, played key roles in overseeing the execution of these killings. Garma detailed how she was instructed by Duterte in a 2016 meeting to identify a police officer to spearhead this campaign, ultimately selecting Colonel Edilberto Leonardo. The task force, with roots in Duterte’s brutal anti-drug policies in Davao City, expanded nationwide, and the reward system was tied explicitly to police killings. These operations, which targeted both street-level suspects and prison-based syndicates, were allegedly coordinated with the knowledge of Go, who handled operational reports and financial reimbursements. After much introspection on her actions taken and the decision to spill the beans on Rodrigo Duterte and Bong Go, Garma stated that she is now “afraid of my life, my relatives, my friends and my classmates…”. This should bring the government and the Congress QuadComm to ensure that her life and that of her family are preserved at all costs. This explosive testimony has ignited calls for accountability, with human rights advocates urging the government to act swiftly in bringing charges against Duterte, Go, and other implicated officials. The evidence presented by Garma has intensified the demand for justice for the thousands of Filipinos who fell victim to state-sanctioned killings during Duterte’s "war on drugs." The government is now under immense pressure to pursue legal action and demonstrate its commitment to the rule of law. The Filipino people’s calls for justice grow louder, and the international community is closely watching whether the current administration will deliver on the promise of accountability for these grave human rights violations. The time for action is now, and the demand for the arrest of Duterte and his accomplices has never been more urgent. #ArrestRodrigoDuterte! #ArrestBongGo! #ArrestBatodelaRosa!

Senator Bong Go’s performance as Duterte’s ever-loyal errand boy is nothing short of laughable. His script revolves around portraying the former president as an old, fragile man—one who, he insists, is too pitiful to face accountability. Yet, just weeks ago, this same “frail” Duterte was healthy enough to spew threats against senators and the President, engage in political activities, and even travel across the country and abroad to campaign for his preferred candidates. But now that justice is closing in, suddenly, he is a delicate senior citizen in desperate need of sympathy. This pattern is predictable. The strongman act disappears the moment the walls close in. Duterte, who once boasted about his iron grip on power, is now clutching at straws, hoping that age and health concerns will earn him a free pass. But justice does not discriminate between the young and the old—especially not for those who wielded power so ruthlessly when it suited them.

Senator Imee Marcos and her gang’s contradictions: Twisting the law to protect Duterte Senator Imee Marcos and her gang’s attempt to frame Rodrigo Duterte’s arrest as unlawful is riddled with contradictions and blatant bias. They claims Duterte’s rights were “glaringly violated,” yet conveniently ignores the thousands of Filipinos who were deprived of their right to life under his brutal drug war. Now, when the justice system finally moves against Duterte, Manang Imee suddenly discovers a passion for due process. Let look into their assertions: 1. No Obligation to Arrest Duterte? Wrong. Senator Imee and her pro-Duterte gang asserts that the Philippines had no legal obligation to arrest Duterte because the ICC’s diffusion notice wasn’t a “Red Notice.” Yet, their own investigation confirmed that the Interpol’s “Wanted Persons Red Diffusion” serves the same purpose as a Red Notice, authorising the arrest of fugitives. If this mechanism was valid for other cases, why should Rodrigo Duterte be exempt? Manang Imee and her gang’s argument isn’t based on law—it’s based on political favoritism. 2. “No Due Process” for Duterte? A False Narrative. Senator Imee and her gang criticises the government for allegedly not obtaining a warrant from a Philippine court, but this completely ignores the reality of international legal cooperation. Duterte is wanted for crimes against humanity—an international crime that supersedes national legal barriers when local justice systems fail to act. Manang Imee and her gang’s argument would hold water if the Philippines had genuinely investigated and prosecuted Duterte’s crimes, but the government has done the opposite—shielding him from accountability. The ICC stepped in because Philippine institutions refused or failed to act. 3. The Family Visitation Argument is Pure Hypocrisy. Senator Imee and her gang bemoans that Duterte’s daughter, Vice President Sara Duterte, was temporarily prevented from seeing him after his arrest. They cite Republic Act 7438, which ensures visitation rights for detained individuals. However, this law does not require immediate access during an ongoing law enforcement operation—especially one involving a high-risk individual like Duterte, whose arrest could trigger security threats. If ordinary detainees can have temporary restrictions for operational security, why should Duterte receive special treatment? More importantly, Manang Imee and her gang never once raised concerns about the thousands of drug war victims who never got the chance to say goodbye to their families before being executed without trial. If they truly cared about visitation rights, where was their outrage when Duterte’s police forces killed, dumped, and buried Filipinos without a second thought? Their selective outrage exposes the glaring bias. Conclusion: Senator Imee’s defense of Duterte is not about justice—it’s about power Senator Imee and her gang’s statements are not rooted in legal principle, but in a desperate attempt to shield Duterte from facing the very justice he denied to thousands of Filipinos. The Philippine authorities did not violate due process—they upheld it by cooperating with the ICC to ensure that no one, not even a former president, is above the law. Manang Imee and her gang’s blatant bias in favor of Duterte proves one thing: they are not defending justice—they are defending impunity.

Paano naging “politically motivated” yun, Sara Duterte? It seems as though the impeached Vice President Sara Zimmerman Duterte and the rest of her family are really used to getting what they want, huh? I feel that they have this delusion of grandeur —- as if they are still invincible and “accountability” does not actually apply to any of them. Now, Sara Duterte hides with one lame excuse to anything related to her and her family as if there’s no clear evidence, as if there are no real victims. No one forced you and your family to do the crimes, why would you blame the cases to anyone else but yourselves? If you have a defense, say it! Explain your side, show evidence or proof of innocence! You do not blame anyone else for the result of the things you did. One word, Madam Vice President… ACCOUNTABILITY. Look it up! No one forced Paolo Duterte to threaten someone’s life nor to physically assault someone. Sarili niyang decision yun! The videos circulating were clear as day… not even Paolo Duterte can deny it. His defense? It happened a long time ago. February 2025 was not a long time ago, especially when you fear for your life. Just for the record, this is not the first time Pulong was accused of physical assault. His very own daughter in 2017 said that her father physically assaulted her, Isabelle Duterte said in her Facebook post: “You can’t beat up a person! Even if you have power, you can’t hurt another person!!!” He is hurting a human being. [ she said].... “not just a human being but a child (15 or 17).” Video from: @BalitaAtKaalaman

.Governor Josh Stein Josh Stein, a Democrat, has had nothing to say about the brutal murder of Iryna Zarutska, a resident of his state. Yet, in 2020, when he was attorney general, he DID find time to lament the death of George Floyd and initiate a "Task Force for Racial Equity in Criminal Justice." This task force's recommendations included increasing "pre-trial release"--which is exactly the kind of thing that allowed Zarutska's killer, DeCarlos Brown, to be on the streets after 14 previous arrests.

Calling out Zaldy Co’s bullshit It doesn’t take the most brilliant of minds to know that whatever Zaldy Co said on his video is nothing but words of a desperate man — it figures why the Duterte allies and supporters are not attacking him the past few days (or maybe weeks). Despite the press conferences and media interviews of Zaldy Co’s legal representation. Nothing. No noise from the Duterte social media people. Nothing from Sara Duterte, Dante Marcoleta, Imee Macos, the DDS vloggers… makes you wonder, huh? How from using him as a tool to attack Romualdez to their new hero today? I agree with Senator Ping Lacson — the National Expenditure Program is the President’s budget, why does he need to ask Zaldy Co to insert all those in Bicam when he has the prerogative to add it right from the NEP? Also, why would the President veto the DPWH projects if he’s the one who requested it? Yes, you don’t have to like the President to call out Zaldy Co’s bullshit. You just have to use your common sense. Here’s another thing, as mentioned by Secretary Vince Dizon — why would the President call out the anomalies and corruption in the flood control projects if he’s involved in it? Why launch a thorough investigation which involves citizen reporting and participation? Why would you create an independent commission? Everything that we know about the system of corruption and the people involved? All are products of the investigation which intensified after the State of the Nation Address of the President. Who is behind all these? Pretty obvious, isn’t it? Video: ABS-CBN News Instagram

Motu proprio inquiry: National Grid Corporation of the Philippines The 40% ownership of the State Grid of China in NGCP is one of the many things we should blame on former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. And in the middle of the tension in the West Philippine Sea, the former President Duterte downplayed the possibility of the security implication of this in 2020. During the time of Former President Duterte, the Senate investigated the security implications of the ownership. Senator argued that if China can promise 9 billion dollars in loans and just 924 million, what is the assurance of President Duterte that China will honor its words regarding our power? Also, who in their right mind would give that much stake to vital and essential needs such as electricity to a country with a very obvious conflict of interest? Apparently the only two China-friendly Presidents (at least of recent history), Rodgrigo Duterte and Sara Duterte’s confidant Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. In 2023, NGCP admitted that Php 15 billion out of their Php 20.3 billion net income went to dividends, distributed to the investors. This is despite the long list of delayed vital projects which we are being charged monthly —- a clear injustice as these projects are not done yet. Days before Christmas, the House of Representatives conducted a hearing regarding the franchise of NGCP. Through that, the solons were baffled by the number of obvious franchise violations including failure to open 20% of its shares to the public. Deputy Speaker Jayjay Suarez moved to conduct a Motu proprio inquiry regarding the franchise of National Grid Corporation of the Philippines. And knowing how important power/ electricity is to us consumers, the businesses, our economy… I support this. May the good legislative work of the House do us great with this motu proprio. We should amplify this.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson created the so-called “Reparations Task Force” by Executive Order 2024-1 back in June 2024 — and he put just $500,000 into it. Why? Because by that point, he had burned through every surplus dollar the city had to fund services for illegal immigrants, and he was getting MAJOR backlash from the Black community. Now fast-forward to the 2026 Proposed Budget: He’s trying to slide an additional $200,000,000 under vague categories like “Special Events Projects” and “New Arrivals.” We all know what that means — more funding for migrants, not for us. And here’s the real scam: Word is that the Reparations Task Force is preparing to protest in support of Brandon Johnson to help him pressure aldermen to pass this budget so they can start their little “reparations conversations” next year — conveniently, right before election season. This is the exact same Democratic Party playbook every single cycle: ✨ Create a task force ✨ Hold meaningless meetings ✨ Dangle “hope” in front of Black voters ✨ Meanwhile, they move hundreds of millions behind our backs ✨ And the Black Caucus stays silent every time Meanwhile, we have a full-blown displacement issue in Chicago, and this administration — with the help of these aldermen — is in on it. They are pushing residents out of their own neighborhoods while funneling resources elsewhere. If this Task Force and the Black Caucus were serious about reparations or serious about the Black community, they would be the FIRST ONES calling out this $200,000,000 budget trick. But they’re quiet — because their loyalty is to Brandon Johnson, not the people. It’s a NO for the budget. Chicago residents are tired of being ignored while our money is being misused, misdirected, and hidden under fake line items. #Uncomfortableconversations #ChicagoFlipsRed

Novice Senator Marcoleta to be subpoenaed for his participation in the fraudulent presentation of a witness with falsified and spurious affidavit. The Orly Guteza Affair: Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus Let’s point-by-point lay out the facts and appraise the areas of collusion and responsibility: 1.Fraudulent affidavit 👉 Orly Guteza’s affidavit was publicly repudiated by Attorney Espera, whose name was attached to the document. 👉 Espera categorically declared it unauthorised, fraudulent, and spurious, stressing that she never met Guteza nor prepared the affidavit attributed to her office. 👉 This places Guteza’s testimony on highly questionable legal ground and hints at a deliberate attempt to fabricate evidence. 2.Improper Senate procedure 👉 Senator Marcoleta introduced Guteza as a “surprise witness” in the Blue Ribbon Committee hearings. 👉 By bypassing established vetting and notification procedures, Marcoleta undermined the credibility of the proceedings. 👉 His action casts doubt on his intent and suggests possible orchestration rather than genuine fact-finding. 3.The witness’ background 👉 Guteza has a history as a “close-in” security aide, shifting loyalties but consistently attached to Duterte allies: ✅ 2016 – Security detail to Nicanor Faeldon at Bureau of Customs. ✅ 2018 – Assigned to Martin Andanar at PCOO. ✅ 2020 – Detail to Gerald Bantag at BuCor. ✅ 2022 – Security for VP Sara Duterte at the OVP. ✅ 2024 – Later linked to Congressman Zaldy Co, also an ally of the Duterte bloc prior to 2022 before relationship went sour. 👉 This revolving door of Duterte-aligned principals paints him as an insider operative embedded in networks loyal to Rodrigo and Sara Duterte. 4.Sara Duterte’s posture 👉 Sara Duterte openly declared that she would “destroy her political enemies regardless of truthfulness.” 👉 Guteza’s sudden surfacing with a dubious affidavit and connections to her inner circle lends weight to suspicions that her combative stance may be translating into tactical fabrications and weaponised testimonies. 5.Preparation of the witness 👉 Reports indicate that Mike Defensor, a staunch Sara Duterte supporter, played a role in preparing and bringing Guteza to the Senate. 👉 Defensor’s involvement situates this episode within a larger Duterte-loyalist operation to insert compromised testimony into official proceedings. 6.Espera’s denial and legal ripples 👉 Lawyer Espie Espera has taken firm steps to protect her integrity, denying involvement with Guteza and moving to contest the fraudulent affidavit in court. 👉 Her repudiation doesn’t just nullify the affidavit—it places Marcoleta and Guteza in direct exposure to charges of perjury, falsification, or obstruction of legislative process. 7.Judicial scrutiny 👉 Manila Executive Judge Carolina Sison has jurisdiction over the matter, given that Espera’s law office falls within her authority. 👉 Judge Sison is preparing to issue subpoenas to key figures, including Guteza and Senator Marcoleta, to establish how a fraudulent affidavit was created and introduced into official proceedings. 8.Possible complicity of the OVP 👉 Guteza’s tenure as close-in security to VP Sara Duterte and his sudden role as Marcoleta’s witness cannot be dismissed as coincidence. 👉 The chain of loyalties—from Faeldon, Andanar, Bantag, Sara Duterte—maps a clear Duterte-aligned ecosystem. 👉 If it is proven that Guteza was deployed with OVP knowledge or backing, Sara herself may be implicated in orchestrating a deliberate campaign to malign political adversaries under the cover of Senate investigations. The fraudulent affidavit of Orly Guteza, the procedural breach by Senator Marcoleta, and the denial by Attorney Espera form a triad of scandal that now rests in the hands of Manila’s judiciary.

Bong Go and Mrs. Discaya confirmed their joint venture in Davao City in 2017! In 2017, Discaya and construction company owned by Bong Go’s immediate family (CLTG Builders), bagged Php 816 million worth of projects in Davao City — during that time, Go was serving as the Special Assistant to the President. It is something that both Bong Go and Discaya confirmed earlier today in the Blue Ribbon committee! The same Rappler report said that CLGT Builders and Alfrego (both connected to Bong Go’s kin) were awarded government projects from 2017 to 2018, valued AT LEAST Php 6.6 billion pesos! In fact, this was the basis of the graft and plunder cases filed against Go and Digong Duterte in 2024. In the same hearing earlier today, Dela Rosa asked Mrs. Discaya said when did they start doing projects for DPWH — 2016, she said. Thank you, Tatay Digong? Lols! Read the Rappler report here:

Bong Go: Nothing is what it seems. In 2021, when the Duterte regime was still cloaked in the illusion of invincibility, it was once again Antonio Trillanes IV—undaunted, unwavering, and unbought—who pierced the veil of deception. With the Magdalo group standing firm beside him, Trillanes dropped a blistering teaser exposing Senator Bong Go’s brazen conflict of interest: over 125 government projects in Davao funneled to Go and his family, amounting to several billions of pesos. This was not mere political noise—it was forensic precision revealing the depth of the Dutertes’ patronage empire, with Bong Go at its operational core. Behind the servile smiles and the calculated loyalty, Go was building a silent empire, protected by proximity to power. Trillanes, though often dismissed as a lone agitator, saw the writing on the wall before anyone else dared read it aloud: Bong Go was not just an aide, but a linchpin in a system of institutionalised plunder. Through the years, Trillanes and his Magdalo comrades fought a lonely but resolute war—not of arms this time, but of truth against propaganda, accountability against impunity. While many politicians either fell silent or bent the knee, they pressed on with unyielding discipline, even as they were ridiculed, red-tagged, and threatened. Yet today, as the Duterte mythos begins to unravel and public eyes open to the decay that was hidden in plain sight, history is beginning to vindicate their cause. The narrative once labeled as conspiracy is now seen as prophecy. The people are awakening to the truth Trillanes had shouted in the wilderness: that Bong Go is not the innocent bystander he portrayed himself to be, but a key architect in Duterte’s architecture of corruption. And for this relentless pursuit—fueled not by ambition but by patriotism—the nation must give Trillanes and Magdalo their due, for they carried the torch when others feared to lift it.

Congressman Pulong Duterte, do you ever feel bothered by your conscience seeing the people of Mindanao losing their lives and suffer in the way they do, year in year out because of flooding? When you took the P51 billion from the taxpayers’ money during your father’s failed administration, under cover of the stench of thousands of deaths and the dying from the Covid19 pandemic, did you and your father not not think about the ordinary people of Mindanao and elsewhere who has been suffering from the corruption your family brought into the nation of 115 million Filipinos? Your father, the inutile Rodrigo Duterte, knew of the corruption that has plagued the country for so long. But he was to tell the nation later— “there’s nothing I can do.” Instead of fighting it as he promised, he not only joined the criminal enterprise— he became the figurehead and centralised his government’s criminal operations, thereby optimising his grip on power and influence. Funding for flood control projects were not only stolen and manipulated, he entrenched and consolidated people into positions of power and influence, himself as the kingpin. Under his regime, flood control projects fund scams flourished and made its heyday. He became the very symbol and protector of corruption he sought to overcome. Fast forward in the middle of the impeachment trial against Vice President Sara Duterte, we witnessed her thick-skinned Chief of Staff Zuleika Lopez, callously declaring— “prepare for Typhoon Inday” as if the tragedy is not enough. On its latest, Typhoon Inday killed 5 people and 6 others missing in one location alone in Maguindanao for a total of 17 deaths and 9 missing in the Visayas and Mindanao which bore the brunt of the deluge. And it’s only just the beginning, there are many more destructive typhoons to come. And whilst Mindanao and the Visayas was suffering, the Dutertes were either gallivanting or busy politicking; their fanatics sowing destabilisation against the very government that exposed their evil deeds. What a state of affairs of Mindanao and its supposed leaders!

President Marcos’ visit to Davao City to unveil the P3.126 billion Davao River Bucana Bridge shows a clear message: real nation-building continues even in places considered as hostile terrain and long treated as the Dutertes’ stronghold of impunity. The bridge was started in late 2023, with the civil works contract signed in November 2023 under the administration of President Marcos. With the bridge set to open on 15th December and the Davao Coastal Road moving toward full completion in 2027, the administration is delivering solid, visible progress. On another note, the P51 billion largesse of Congressman Pulong Duterte who danced his way to the cabaret, was obtained during the presidency of his father under cover of the stench of thousands of Filipinos dead from Covid19 pandemic largely due to corruption and incompetence of the Duterte administration. The same amount of money could have produced 16 bridges of this magnitude had it been given for the right use. To date, Pulong continues to escape accountability.
