Groups protest flood control corruption, demand accountability

Several groups, including Akbayan party-list, Tindig Pilipinas, and Youth Against Kurakot, staged a protest in Quezon City to demand accountability and transparency in the flood control scandal.

The protesters distributed white ribbons and held a noise barrage, urging commuters and motorists to honk their horns against corruption.

Akbayan Youth Secretary General Khylla Meneses expressed frustration over the lack of progress in filing charges against lawmakers implicated in corruption related to flood control projects, months after the President's State of the Nation Address.

Meneses emphasized that investigations should lead to concrete actions and accountability for corrupt officials, not just public proceedings or the release of financial disclosures.
