FALSE CLAIM: “Duterte added ₱7T debt without infra. BBM is repeating it.”
This is classic Dilawan disinformation: shallow, uninformed, dishonest, and meant to mislead.
REALITY CHECK:
🔸 Pnoy’s Admin (2010–2016)
– Yes, he only added ₱1.4T in debt — because he did the bare minimum.
– Infra spending stuck at ~2% of GDP, despite years of growth.
– ZERO big-ticket infra completed during his term.
– Dozens of PPP projects delayed by overregulation and red tape.
– Returned unutilized calamity and flood control funds even after Yolanda.
– Left NAIA dubbed “Worst Airport in the World” multiple times.
– Urban congestion worsened; no solution to traffic in Metro Manila.
– Northrail, MRT-7, LRT-1 Cavite Extension all stalled or left unstarted.
– Military modernization? Still using dilapidated ships and secondhand planes.
– Legacy? Credit ratings, “Daang Matuwid” branding, and press conferences.
Conclusion: Six years of safe politics, little risk, no vision, and no concrete legacy.

🔸 Duterte (2016–2022) -- His BBB is one of the positive things about his admin
– Debt rose ₱6.8T — largely due to COVID-19 emergency funding, Bayanihan laws, vaccines, and stimulus packages.
(But his daughter attributed this debt to PBBM, WHICH IS WRONG!)
– BUT infrastructure spending was massively scaled, reaching 6% of GDP
– Key completed and advanced infra projects:
✅ Skyway Stage 3 – finally connected NLEX to SLEX.
✅ Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway – longest sea-crossing bridge.
✅ Clark Airport New Terminal – world-class, completed on time.
✅ BGC–Ortigas Bridge
✅ Binondo–Intramuros Bridge
✅ LRT-2 East Extension – 2 new stations after decades of delay.
✅ New Clark City Phase 1 – modern gov hub and sports facilities.
✅ MARCOS HIGHWAY widening, Davao Coastal Road, bypasses in Mindanao.
✅ Land Port in Taguig, completed seaports, roll-on/roll-off ports.
✅ Free Wi-Fi in public areas, including state universities and remote towns.
✅ DOTr modernization of terminals and port systems nationwide.
Conclusion: Duterte turned infrastructure into a core governance priority something OBJECTIVE OBSERVERS appreciate.
***Hindi ako katulad ng mga DDS na discredited projects ng isang presidente. But Sara Duterte is a hopeless situation.

🔸 BBM (2022–2025)
– ₱3.2T in new debt (so far) — half Duterte’s pace, but funding ambitious modernization.
– Build Better More: ₱9.14T worth of 194 flagship projects, covering land, sea, air, digital, and agri.
– Key ongoing and future mega-projects:
✅ Metro Manila Subway – PH’s first subway, 33 km (Japan-funded)
✅ North–South Commuter Railway (NSCR) – ₱873B from Clark to Calamba
✅ Mindanao Railway (Phase 1) – Davao–Tagum–Digos underway
✅ Cebu BRT – finally under construction
✅ New NAIA Rehabilitation (₱170B PPP) – awarded in 2024
✅ New Manila International Airport (Bulacan, ₱735B) – 100M passenger capacity
✅ Davao, Kalibo, Laguindingan airport expansions
✅ Iloilo–Guimaras–Negros Bridge (₱189.6B) – in engineering phase
✅ Bataan–Cavite Interlink Bridge (₱175B) – 32 km span
✅ Batangas–Bauan Bridge – unlocking industrial corridors
✅ Panay Railway revival – feasibility confirmed, Chinese funding secured
✅ Pasig River Urban Rehab Project – cleanup, flood control, and green belt development
✅ Agri Infra – farm-to-market roads, post-harvest facilities, solar irrigation
✅ Cold Storage Hubs – built in Visayas and Mindanao for food security
✅ National Broadband Plan – expanding internet to remote areas
✅ eGov PH Super App, National Fiber Backbone, digital gov’t infra
✅ Renewables – Ilocos Norte wind-solar hybrid farm, more solar parks in pipeline
✅ Maharlika Investment Fund – co-financing platform for high-impact infra
Conclusion: BBM is scaling up everything the Philippines never had — a real subway, national railways, future-proof airports, and seamless logistics infrastructure.

This is the problem with Dilawans: they’re master liars and smooth propagandists.
They cherry-pick data, erase context, and sell mediocrity as virtue.
“Low debt” is not an achievement if it came at the cost of rotting airports, stalled trains, poor flood control, and zero preparedness.
Duterte built. BBM is building even more.
