Sen. Bam Aquino urged Filipinos to set aside political colors to effectively combat corruption, emphasizing that ordinary citizens are the true victims.
He cited the massive flood control scam at the DPWH and emerging corruption allegations at the Bureau of Internal Revenue as examples of systemic issues.
Aquino stressed that disasters and corruption affect everyone, regardless of political affiliation, and the focus should remain on the people, not politicians.
He warned that framing corruption as a political issue only distracts the public and undermines accountability.
Despite his opposition ties, Aquino has collaborated with the Senate majority, highlighting the need for bipartisan efforts to address corruption.
