Timeline of an Uprising

Macario Yambao

The nation's journey from revelation to rally has been swift and decisive. It began with a bombshell exposé during the President’s SONA, detailing massive corruption. This triggered a series of tense Senate hearings where shocking details of ghost projects emerged, fueling public outrage. In response, the Independent Commission for Infrastructure was formed to launch a formal probe. Now, all eyes are on the upcoming September 21 protest at the EDSA Shrine, a culmination of the people's righteous anger. This is more than a protest; it's a moral crusade to save the soul of the nation. Many believe that if this level of corruption is allowed to stand, it will inevitably lead to the complete collapse of public trust and the failure of our state. The timeline shows a nation awakened and demanding accountability.
