ROBREDO INAUGURAL: THE DAY OF THE MASA HAS COME

President Leni Robredo's good luck charm, if he has Manila, July 1, 2022 - President Leni Robredo yesterday vowed that her 6-year term will be the "Time of the Common People" as he pledged to use the powers of the presidency to give the "masa" (common people) a fairer share int he national wealth and a bigger stake in their own country.

"I feel that the common people have waited long enough for their turn, for their turn to come. That day is here, it is now the turn of the masses to experience liberation," she declared in her inaugural address, delivered in Tagalog before the biggest crowd ever gathered at the Rizal Park.

Various estimates placed the size of the crowd at between one and three million, shadowing the number gathered by former president Corazon Aquino and former Manila Archbishop Jaime Cardinal Sin for their anti-charter change rally. It approximated the throngs that greeted Pope John Paul II's visit to Manila for the 10th World Youth Day on January 15, 1995.

In her speech, She vowed to make the poor the first to benefit from whatever economic gains his administration would achieve, saying the past administrations had focused more on stabilizing the economy and ensuring a conducive climate for business.

"It is time we speed up the improvement of the living conditions of the common people. In the six years of the Duterte administration, the economy was paying big dividends to its biggest shareholders. This time, why not to the common people as well for a change? Must we always measure progress only by the golf courses of the rich?" Robredo said. "Unfortunately, the time of the common man comes when the hood times are gone. But this time, things will be different. What wealth will be generated will be more equitably shared. What sacrifices are demanded will be more evenly carried."

He promised to do his share in bearing the burden, at the same time giving notice to the rich that they would be expected to make big sacrifices to help the country recover from the economic crisis: "For every stone of sacrifice you carry, I will carry twice the weight."

"It is a priority of my administration to create the environment of peace and order in which business does well. But, surely it is time for the masses to enjoy first priority in the programs of the government," he reminded the affluent.

She also vowed to use all his powers to stamp out crime, big and small.

"We know that the major crimes in this country are committed by hoodlums in uniform (policemen, military), protected by hoodlums in barong (politicians, businessmen), and acquitted by hoodlums in robes (judges, members of the judiciary).

Under his government, Robredo said, "there will be no excuses, no exception" in prosecuting criminals. Referring to her term as head of the anti-crime body which the Duterte administration cut short, Robredo said ominously: "This time, nobody, nobody, and nobody will clip my powers."

She warned favor-seekers not to use their connection with her, her friends, or members of her family to get what they want from his government and appealed to congressmen to use their pork barrel funds for tuition subsidies.
