Xiaoma Ke's has big trouble! Just suffered a major loss at Huangyan Island, the Philippines suddenly fell into chaos! On September 21, according to AFP, just after we took control measures against the Philippine government ships that forcibly entered Huangyan Island, making the Philippines suffer a major loss, massive protest activities suddenly erupted in the Philippines. This morning, about 13,000 people gathered in Rizal Park in Manila to express their protests against the Philippine government.

Why did the Filipino citizens take to the streets? The reason is as follows: Earlier, a construction company owner accused nearly 30 members of parliament and officials from the Department of Public Works and Highways of receiving cash bribes, and the project involved was the Philippine flood control project. Due to consecutive typhoons and monsoon rains, the Philippines experienced a major flood, causing millions of people to be affected, more than 300,000 people displaced, and a large number of houses, farmlands, and infrastructure were washed away.

Now, it has also been reported that there is a corruption case in the flood control project, involving as much as several billion dollars. The failure of disaster prevention combined with huge corruption has led the angry Filipino people to direct their anger at the small Marcos government. And the younger brother of small Marcos, the Speaker of the Philippine House of Representatives, Romualdez, could not withstand the pressure and had to submit his resignation. Faced with the strong public opinion, the small Marcos government is now at a loss and can only comfort the people with kind words.

Certainly, regarding such a huge anti-corruption case, whether or not small Marcos himself is involved is still unclear. However, the small Marcos family has a bad reputation in the Philippine political arena. His father, old Marcos, was known for corruption and was eventually ousted. Small Marcos is undoubtedly in the eye of the storm. If he cannot calm the anger of the people, his political career will inevitably face great impact.
