Specifically in the case of Bongbong, he's a pushover leader. Doesn't know how to assert. Doesn't know how to stand firm.
I can agree with you on that, I voted for him too, and honestly, I regret it. the way he talks now, it feels like he doesn’t have the willpower to actually push for change. He’s very different from the previous president, who even ended up in The Hague because he was serious about fighting illegal drugs and stopping the country from becoming a narco state.
Looking at what’s happening now, corruption feels deeply rooted in our system. From the top officials down to the lowest positions, it’s like everyone is just looking for ways to take advantage and steal our taxes. sure, there are still some good people in the government, but they’re heavily outnumbered. Eventually, even the good ones risk getting dragged into the same corrupt system.
