 ISANG OPEN LETTER ANG IPINAABOT PARA KAY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE CONGRESSMAN MARTIN ROMUADEZ

Open letter to Speaker of the House of Representatives Congressman Martin Romualdez

Dear Speaker Romualdez,

We, the undersigned AFP and PNP retired officers, UP Vanguards, and concerned Filipino citizens and taxpayers, demand that you immediately resign as Congressman of the First District of Leyte and Speaker of the House of Representatives because of the following reasons:

1. With ₱15.589 trillion national government debt as of August 2024, you do not care at all if the Philippine government would become bankrupt, sooner or later, because you have recommended a ₱6.352 trillion budget for 2025 against a 2025 projected supportable national revenue of ₱4.64 trillion according to Finance Secretary Rafael Recto, or a deficit of ₱1.712 trillion. 

2. You squandered ₱26.7 billion from the AKAP of DSWD on a fake People’s Initiative to unnecessarily change the Philippine Constitution.

3. You failed to safeguard our taxes against corruption that eats about 20% of our annual budget. Briefly, the 2025 national budget would be less than the 2024 national budget if there were no corruption in the government. Furthermore, there is no attempt on your part to remove the label of Congress as “The Philippines’ biggest criminal syndicate,” according to BizNews Asia. 

4. Aside from a report of your multi-million dollar donation to Harvard University, there are reports of your alleged buying spree here and abroad including a 20% ownership of EEI costing ₱1.25 billion.

Under your leadership in the House of Representatives, you have been spending the taxpayers’ money (paid by our blood, sweat, and tears), as if you owned the Philippine government.

Based on the foregoing observations, we want you out of the House of Representatives. NOW!
