Malacañang on Monday, Jan. 19, said President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. remains focused on governing and ensuring the uninterrupted delivery of public services, following the filing of an impeachment complaint against him.
In a statement, the Palace said it respects the constitutional right to file complaints, noting that such actions are part of the democratic process guaranteed under the Constitution. It also expressed confidence that Congress will handle the matter with integrity and in accordance with the rule of law.
The Palace stressed that President Marcos fully upholds the Constitution and remains confident in the country’s democratic institutions.
“While these processes take their course, the President will continue to govern, ensuring that public services remain uninterrupted and that the work of government stays focused on improving the lives of our people.”
It added that the administration remains committed to stability, accountability, and the welfare of the Filipino people.
Earlier on Monday, lawyer Andre de Jesus filed the first impeachment complaint against Marcos Jr., alleging graft and corruption, culpable violation of the Constitution, and betrayal of public trust.IMT
