TIMPUYOG PILIPINAS STATEMENT OF SUPPORT TO THE INC RALLY AND DENOUNCEMENT OF ANY FORM OF POLITICAL HIJACKING



Timpuyog Pilipinas stands in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in the Iglesia Ni Cristo as they gather in peaceful assembly to express their collective call for justice, accountability, and integrity in public service. The right to peaceful protest is a cornerstone of democracy, and we recognize the sincerity of the INC community in voicing their concerns for our nation’s future.


We support this rally not as a political act, but as a moral one—a testament that ordinary citizens, regardless of faith or affiliation, have the right to demand transparency from those who hold power.


In these trying times, when corruption scandals and systemic failures repeatedly test the faith of our people, the message of the INC is not only timely but vital to the conscience of the nation.


At the same time, Timpuyog Pilipinas strongly denounces any attempt by opportunistic groups or individuals to hijack this sacred expression of civic duty for personal or partisan political gain.


We reject all efforts—subtle or blatant—to twist the rally’s message, redirect its purpose, or weaponize its momentum for agendas that do not reflect the will, values, or welfare of the INC community.


This moment belongs to the INC and to the Filipino people seeking truth and justice.


It must not be distorted by political adventurism, destabilization attempts, or power grabs disguised as public concern.


We call on everyone to respect the sanctity of the INC rally, uphold peace and order, and avoid spreading narratives meant to confuse or divide the public. Let this be a time when we listen—not to the noise of political maneuvering—but to the genuine cries of citizens who simply want a nation free from corruption, manipulation, and impunity.


Timpuyog Pilipinas remains committed to unity, love of country, and the relentless pursuit of good governance.


We stand with every Filipino—INC or not—who dreams of a Philippines where justice is real, leaders are accountable, and the truth is never overshadowed by ambition.


Mabuhay ang Timpuyog Pilipinas.

Mabuhay ang sambayanang Pilipino.

Mabuhay ang Iglesia Ni Cristo.


MGEN THOMPSON C. LANTION, PNP, (RET)
National Chairman
Timpuyog Pilipinas

The Silent Beneficiaries: What Vice President Sara Duterte’s Impeachment Means for the 2028 Presidential Election.

Image
* A Comprehensive Analysis by the Timpuyog Pilipinas  Institute for  Socio-Economic and Political Reforms  (Timpuyog Think-Tank Group)   When the impeachment complaints against Vice President Sara Duterte surfaced, the language surrounding the issue immediately took on tones of constitutional rectitude and democratic accountability. Supporters of the move painted it as a necessary mechanism to uphold the rule of law, claiming that the Vice President’s alleged transgressions required institutional redress. However, politics is rarely only about principles. Hidden beneath the rhetoric lies a more complex story: one of political positioning, ambitions for 2028, institutional fragility, and a silent recalibration of power alliances. Ironically, despite the narrative of justice being served, the most visible outcome of this impeachment drama might not be the strengthening of democratic values but the unsettling of an already delicate political equilibrium. The ones w...

Position Paper of Timpuyog Pilipinas On the Need to Create for a Special Investigation Team to Address Flood Control Corruption Urging President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. to Take Executive Action Beyond Senate Political Grandstanding

Image
  Introduction   Timpuyog Pilipinas, as a socio-political movement advocating federalism , integrity, and genuine service to the Filipino people, expresses deep concern over the continuing revelations of corruption in flood control projects across the country. The recent disclosures, echoed in the privilege speech of former Senator Panfilo “Ping” Lacson , reveal a systemic abuse of government funds, involving not only contractors but also public officials and even legislators.   These anomalies, amounting to billions of pesos, are not mere accounting errors. They represent stolen opportunities—roads that could have been built, classrooms that could have been opened, hospitals that could have saved lives. Every peso lost to corruption is a peso stolen from the Filipino people.   The Problem: Political Grandstanding vs. Genuine Reform   While the Senate has initiated inquiries on the matter, Timpuyog Pilipinas maintains that such hearings often d...

Alleged Patronage, Financial Networks, and Foreign Influence in the Escudero–Duterte–China Nexus: A Theoretical Examination

Image
 *Timpuyog Pilipinas Think-Tank Group   Abstract   This paper analyzes claims of a sophisticated quid pro quo network, dubbed the “Secret Alliance of Chiz Escudero, Sara Duterte, and China.” Drawing on an executive summary from Timpuyog Pilipinas, a sworn affidavit, and public records, the study examines the alleged role of businessman Maynard Ngu as a nexus figure—simultaneously a major campaign donor (₱30 million), alleged bagman for ₱160 million in public works kickbacks (SOP) intended for Senator Escudero, and a Special Envoy to China . The analysis critically explores the temporal correlation between Escudero’s role in archiving Vice President Duterte’s impeachment and a private meeting with Chinese Ambassador Huang Xilian . By applying theories of state capture and political patronage, and by drawing on regional parallels from Cambodia, Sri Lanka, and Malaysia, the study discusses the implications of this alleged collusion for Philippine political accountab...
