“Fight for transparency and good governance should never end” – Mayor

“Christmas is near, pero ang laban para sa transparency at good governance ay hindi dapat natatapos.”

Thus, declared Mayor Benjamin Magalong in a recent social media post.

“Habang papalapit ang Pasko at ang huling araw ng Ber month ngayong taon, huwag nating hayaang matabunan ng selebrasyon ang ating panawagan para sa malinis na pamahalaan,” he stated.

The Mayor added: “Ang hiling natin ngayong Pasko: Wakasan ang korapsyon; Panagutin ang mga tiwali; at Itaguyod ang tapat at makataong paglilingkod.”

He also urged the Marcos administration to move faster in holding politicians allegedly involved in corruption accountable.

Lawmakers linked to irregularities should face consequences for benefiting from anomalous schemes, Magalong said. – Gaby B. Keith
