House speaker admits trust in Congress is low amid scandals

House Speaker Faustino "Bojie" Dy III admitted that public trust in the House of Representatives has fallen significantly.

He cited reports of House staffers avoiding wearing their uniforms in public due to fear of public outrage and shame following recent scandals in infrastructure projects.

Dy urged lawmakers and House staff to work diligently and honestly to regain public trust.

He emphasized the importance of hope during challenging times, stating that the sun will rise again and there is always a light at the end of every tunnel.

Public scrutiny remains focused on the flood control project scandal.
