President Marcos Jr. Champions Public Participation

He encouraged citizens to submit comments, feedback, and suggestions specifically regarding flood-control projects in their areas. The president personally committed to reading every report submitted, emphasizing transparency and accountability.
Local leaders noted that this initiative is part of a broader government effort to investigate irregularities in flood-control projects that have worsened flooding in Metro Manila and other regions during the rainy season.
