A Pulse Asia survey finds that many Filipinos want President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to focus on anti-corruption in his upcoming fifth State of the Nation Address on Monday, July 24. According to the results cited by Philstar, nearly one in every three respondents wants Marcos to discuss government efforts to curb corruption during the speech. The survey also places corruption at the top of respondents’ “SONA wishlist,” alongside expectations about accountability in flood control-related government work. One report notes that respondents specifically want the President to address steps to hold flood control benefactors accountable, which is presented as part of the broader corruption concern. The findings indicate that anti-corruption messaging and accountability measures are the most widely requested topics among the public ahead of SONA. The survey results do not detail specific policy proposals to be discussed, but they consistently highlight corruption and related accountability as the primary priority for respondents.
