    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Data contradict Marcos’ claim that PH economy is ‘fastest growing’ in the world

    By VERA Files  |  Jun 06, 2023 12:15 PM

    Speaking before his supporters in Cebu City last May 27, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. boasted that the Philippines is the “fastest growing country in the world,” attributing this to the right direction his administration has taken to fulfill his campaign promises. This is at least the second time, by VERA Files Fact Check’s count, that Marcos made an inaccurate claim about the Philippines’ economic standing.

    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Pahayag ni Marcos na bigo ang apela ng gobyerno sa ICC MALI

    By VERA Files  |  Apr 02, 2023 9:11 AM

    Ang tinanggihan lamang ng ICC appeals chamber ay ang kahilingan ng gobyerno na suspindihin ang pagpapatuloy ng drug war probe noong Marso 27. Ang administrasyong Marcos ay mayroon pa ring isang nakabinbing apela — ang pangunahing petisyon nito — na naglalayong baligtarin ang desisyon noong Enero 26 ng ang Pre-Trial Chamber I na nagbigay-daan kay Prosecutor Karim Khan na ipagpatuloy ang imbestigasyon.
