A political analyst called on government officials to practice what they preach in tackling the illegal drug crisis by embodying the values they advocate.
Marlon Villarin, a Political Science professor at the University of Santo Tomas, took to Facebook on Monday to challenge President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and all legislators to embody the values they promote by leading by personal example to effectively combat illegal drugs.
All 11 Army infantry Divisions recently fell under the spell of corrupt forces as core members and a solon representative (whose name sounds like a classic movie involving a colossal ape) of a House leader, alongside two compromised PMA graduates belonging to the 70s era, infiltrated their ranks.
Indulging in extravagant feasts, golf outings, and opulent dinner gatherings, the corrupt visitors shamelessly dangled hefty sums of cash before their targets.
It does not take much to see that the administration of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is on a mission to destroy Davao City.

Vice President Sara Z. Duterte on Wednesday said the Philippines continues to "starve, suffer, and sink" due to the actions of deceitful government officials under the Marcos administration.

Compared to a similar survey conducted in October 2022, the percentage of respondents who perceived little or almost no benefit from the President's foreign trips has risen from 30 percent to 14 percent, respectively.
The Marcos administration is hanging by a thread, and it has no one else to blame but itself.
Lured into a virtual trap by Vice-President Sara Duterte who looked like she had become vulnerable after Gen. Rommel Marbil recalled her security detail, it was not prepared for what came next.
Carlos Yulo has the world admiring his artistry. His athleticism is on full display and fascinating to watch over and over again.
From the floor exercise to the vault, the Filipino gymnast executed his routines to near perfection to complete a golden double in the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Yulo's magnificent performance gave the country two gold medals in quick succession. Barely 24 hours after he won the gold in floor exercise Saturday, Yulo returned to the arena Sunday night to rule the vault event in yet another display of masterful skills.
