MANILA, Philippines – Political corruption remains a deep-rooted issue in the Philippines, with candidates repeatedly pledging to fight it, yet ultimately depending on the same corrupt systems to finance their campaigns.

The traditional reliance on wealthy donors, contractors, and foreign interests perpetuates a cycle of financial dependence and favors that, critics argue, continues to fuel corruption at the highest levels of government.

In a video posted on PGMN’s YouTube channel titled, “Jourdan Sebastian EXPOSES the Multi-Billion-Peso Election Game,” Jourdan Sebastian the network’s resident “Conspiracy Epiphanist” confronts this issue, passionately calling for a major shift in how political campaigns are funded.

He reveals how billions are funneled into campaigns by powerful figures and political allies who then expect payback in government favors, undermining claims of anti-corruption.

Sebastian criticizes the need for politicians to rely on funding from large corporations, contractors, and foreign interests all with their own agendas asking how candidates can credibly fight corruption while being indebted to those same forces.

In response, Sebastian proposes the “People’s Fund,” or ambagan, a grassroots solution to empower citizens to directly fund the campaigns of politicians they support.

By encouraging small contributions through digital platforms like GCash or PayMaya, he envisions a system where politicians are accountable to the people rather than beholden to powerful backers.

His call for reform reflects a growing public sentiment that the Philippine political system must change to reduce corruption and promote transparency.

“When you do the same thing over and over again expecting a different result, that’s insanity,” Sebastian said, urging citizens to take action and support a new, people-powered way to fund political campaigns.
