菲律宾总统小费迪南德·马科斯将于周一在众议院发表年度国情咨文演讲,这将是他在2028年中期任期届满前的倒数第二次演讲1。此次演讲在多重挑战的阴影下进行:去年曝光的洪灾防控项目贪腐丑闻已牵连数十名众议院和参议院议员、政府公共工程工程师及其他官员1。参议院24名成员中有一名现任和一名前任成员因这一大规模贪腐案被起诉和拘留1。前众议院议长、总统表弟马丁·罗慕阿尔德斯是该案主要嫌疑人,但至今尚未被指控,这引发了外界批评1。
马科斯曾就贪腐调查进展表态:"我们做了足够的工作,因为我们还没有完成。不幸的是,我们看得越多,发现得越多。"1此外,副总统萨拉·杜特尔特的弹劾审判正在进行中1。由于中东战事升级导致全球经济下滑,菲律宾政府已于3月宣布了为期一年的国家能源紧急状态1。为应对这些挑战,超过23,000名警察已被部署以确保演讲地点的安全1,众议院周边已设置铁丝网和防暴警察以防止抗议活动1。
President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. is set to deliver his penultimate annual State of the Nation Address on Monday, the second-to-last such speech before his term concludes in 2028.1 The address comes against a backdrop of significant political and economic challenges facing the nation.
A corruption scandal involving a flood-control project exposed last year has ensnared dozens of lawmakers and government officials.1 Within the Senate alone, one current member and one former member have been prosecuted and detained on large-scale graft charges.1 The former House Speaker and presidential cousin Martin Romualdez, identified as a key suspect in the scandal, has not yet been charged, drawing criticism.1 The President acknowledged the ongoing nature of the crisis, stating: "We have done enough work because we are not yet done. Unfortunately, the more we see, the more we find."1 Meanwhile, the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte is underway.1
Security measures for Monday's event reflect the tense political climate. More than 23,000 police officers have been deployed to secure the House of Representatives, where the address will take place.1 Barbed wire fencing and riot police have been positioned around the venue to prevent protests.1 In March, the government declared a one-year national energy emergency in response to escalating Middle East conflict and its impact on the global economy.1
