It’s encouraging to hear that large companies like San Miguel Corp., under the leadership of Ramon Ang, are willing to help for free in clearing clogged rivers and canals in Metro Manila. President Bongbong Marcos himself is open to such support from the private sector — and rightly so. If the private sector has the means and resources, it can greatly ease the burden on the public. Add to that the proposal of Senator Ping Lacson to encourage the country’s wealthiest families to use their CSR (corporate social responsibility) funds for flood control, and the effort looks even more promising.

2025: The Year Corruption Was Unmasked

“Meow meow!” ... simpleng tunog ng pusa, pero sa panahon ngayon, parang mas may saysay pa kaysa sa mga pahayag ng ilang opisyal sa balita. Minsan kasi, sa sobrang gulo ng bansa, mas malinaw pa ang iyak ng pusang gutom kaysa sa mga pangako ng mga nanunungkulan.

Message of Earthquake for Contractors

The Philippines is blessed with some of the richest natural treasures in the world......white sand beaches, lush forests, coral reefs teeming with life, and fertile farmlands that feed millions of families. Yet today, these treasures are under serious threat. From floods to plastic pollution, from stronger typhoons to vanishing wildlife, the signs of an environmental crisis are everywhere.

Featuring Environment in Crisis: Why Every Filipino Must Act Now

Whenever Senator Rodante Marcoleta takes the floor, there’s a certain déjà vu that hits me....like a courtroom drama starring someone I’ve seen before. It’s the same no-nonsense posture, the same iron-clad logic, and yes, the same fearless approach to poking holes in an opponent’s argument until it looks like Swiss cheese.

When we talk about corruption, many people quickly point to politicians, government officials, or big businesses. We imagine stolen money, rigged contracts, or shady deals. But corruption does not only happen in the halls of power. The truth is, corruption often begins in the smallest place we know....our own home.

Corruption Starts at Home

If we reflect, the times have truly shifted. Back then, when corruption thrived, it was the corrupt who trembled in fear of being exposed. The word “Expose” carried weight. It carried shame. It carried fear. Because society, at least in some sense, still respected truth. The one who spoke out was seen as a hero....defenders of the people against the greedy who fattened themselves on the nation’s wealth.

Before, the Corrupt Feared Exposure. Today, the Whistleblower Fears Corruption.

Money is people’s trust. Every peso collected through taxes comes from the sweat, hard work, and sacrifices of ordinary citizens. Because of this, it is only fair that the government should be transparent about how our money is being spent. One of the most debated topics today is the use of confidential funds.

Can We Open Confidential Funds?
