THE COLLAPSE OF THE SILENT PINK+MAKABAYAN PLAYBOOK
Opinion | Rob Rances
For months, a quiet strategy seemed to be unfolding—a Pink+Makabayan playbook disguised as neutrality but built on pure political math:
1. Demolish Sara now, protect BBM (2025–2026) – Not because BBM is clean, but because his removal puts Sara in Malacañang—their worst fear.
2. Destroy BBM later (2027) – Only after Sara is weakened enough to be taken out of succession.
3. Install a Pink+Makabayan President in 2028.
That may have been the plan.
But ZALDY CO just blew the entire sequence apart.
His confession didn’t merely implicate BBM—it triggered a national outrage that’s exploding beyond partisan lines.
THE PEOPLE ARE MOVING
After Zaldy’s revelation, the country’s anger is no longer about political colors. It’s SURVIVAL vs. CORRUPTION.
The economic collapse is accelerating.
Hunger is rising.
Investor confidence has vanished.
And now Malacañang is directly tied to the flood-control racket.
This kind of outrage won’t wait for political blocs to decide when it’s “strategically convenient.”
Real crises don’t follow anyone’s schedule.
• The Pink–Makabayan playbook depended on timing.
• Malacañang depended on silence.
• BBM depended on secrecy.
Zaldy Co shattered all three.
A NEW MOVEMENT IS RISING
What’s happening now isn’t Pink, Red, Yellow, Makabayan, or LBM.
It’s the Filipino Nation—
awake, constitutional, peaceful, and moving on its own terms.
This time, PEOPLE POWER won’t wait for any faction’s blessing, pacing, or strategy.
The truth is out.
And the people are done waiting.
