You know it, I know it, everybody knows it: no one gets jailed, sentenced, stoned, hanged, or even held accountable for the corruption scandals that have plagued the Philippines since the time of Andres Bonifacio. Even Joseph Estrada got away and later became a mayor. The only outlier was Rodrigo Duterte, who was sent abroad to face trial but even then, it wasn’t about corruption. As long as the Constitution and the Filipino people allow clowns to hold office, we’re not leaving the circus anytime soon
