Others expressed anger at officials who only think of themselves while ordinary people struggle every day just to survive.
A few shared personal frustrations, like waiting for years for flood control projects in Bulacan or feeling burdened by taxes while stolen funds remain unreturned.
One user commented that politicians already know how to manipulate the people, while another said it seems like nothing will ever change.
This was not the first time Regine aired her sentiments on corruption.
Recently, she criticized how ordinary citizens must go through many steps to secure loans or funding for important needs, often requiring collateral.
She compared this to corrupt officials who appear to access huge amounts of money with little effort.
Regine stressed how difficult it is for regular people to fulfill their dreams due to strict financial processes.
For those in power, however, it seems far too easy to misuse funds. Her words echoed the frustration of many Filipinos hoping for accountability.
