A sea of fire in front of the Philippine presidential palace, corruption case reached Marcos, the Philippine military declared to remain loyal to the president

In the face of the Philippine presidential palace, the corruption case finally reached Marcos’ head, and all the Philippine soldiers had made a choice.

The corrupt and notorious Marcos family appears to be stepping up again on the same issue.Today, the largest protests since Marcos came to power broke out in more than 20 cities across the Philippines.

The spark of the protesters’ anger was that a couple showed up in interviews and later investigated them to run several construction companies and have multiple government flood protection projects contracts, thereby involving corruption related to flood protection projects.

After investigation, there are a series of problems of cutting corners and substandard quality in flood control projects in many places in the Philippines, and there are even "ghost projects" that the government has allocated funds but actually did not start construction.

According to statistics, corruption in the flood prevention program alone has caused $18 billion in losses to the Philippines since Marcos took office.

To know, the Philippines is an island country, constantly affected by extreme weather such as typhoons, especially vulnerable to floods, seriously threatening the life and property security of ordinary people.

Today, the Philippine government does not find a way to solve the problem, but instead conspires with businessmen, engages in corruption on flood prevention projects, and the general public can not tolerate it, so it expressed dissatisfaction with the Marcos government in the form of demonstrations.

The Marcos administration also reacted quickly, taking the strategy of “abandoned car marshals,” including officials and lawmakers, including Public Affairs and Road Minister Bono, House Speaker, and Marcus’ cousin Romualdes, who either resigned or were dismissed, officials and politicians who were essentially Marcus’s to attract “fire forces” for themselves.

However, the protesters didn't buy it. The Filipino people didn't forget the corrupt style of Marcos' father, Marcos Sr., when he was in power. They believed that there must be a shadow of Marcos' trading.

According to reports, Marcos had received tens of millions of pesos donations from public works contractors during his presidential campaign, and protesters demanded a thorough investigation into the corruption case.

The corruption case has been found to Marcos. If he doesn't accept the investigation, the corruption doubt can't be eliminated. There is still a chance to delay the investigation and operate secretly.

Through a spokesman, he expressed to the outside world his willingness to be investigated and to have the Philippine Election Commission perform its duties to cooperate with the matter.

Marcos' willingness to cooperate with the investigation was entirely forced by reality, since the Chinese Hong Kong Special District government investigated the Marcos family's money laundering case, it can be seen that the Marcos family was "unfairly distorted", and the ultimate purpose of Marcos' presidency was not to serve the Philippine people, but to make money.

Factors overlapping together, the disappointment of the Philippine people with the president, with the government, accumulated to a certain extent, will inevitably manifest in the form of demonstrations, violent resistance.

At the height of the protest, protesters set fire directly in front of the presidential palace to vent their anger. If it weren't for the high security level, maybe the presidential palace in the Philippines would have become a sea of fire.

A little bit of comfort for Marcos was that in the face of the current unrest, the Philippine military said it was still on the side of the president.

Philippine Defense Minister Teodoro said that even during the investigation of corruption cases in flood control projects, the army still supported President Marcos, which was not necessary to worry about. Teodoro's remarks directly responded to the recent rumors of a "coup" circulating in the army.

The statement of Teodoro is the normal reaction of the military, after all, Marcos is still the president and commander of the Three Armies, and the core leadership in the Philippine army, are all promoted by Marcos. but if there is an unexpected situation, Marcos is not the president of the Philippines, the military may deal with him a pair of faces.
