Akbayan Party has criticized the 2025 national budget for alleged misallocations, pointing out insufficient funding for critical sectors like education and healthcare.
The group emphasized that the budget should prioritize programs directly benefiting the poor and vulnerable communities.
They also called for increased transparency in fund distribution to avoid potential misuse and ensure accountability.
Akbayan urged Congress to address these concerns to realign the budget with public needs.
The party remains vocal in pushing for equitable resource allocation in government spending.
