If elected president, Bongbong Marcos says he won’t make public his SALN

Marcos: 'I think we have to be more protective. If it is going to be used to victimize the person through their SALN, then I don’t see why you would do that.' VotePH | DYGalvezINQ

“If you look at it even more closely, it [impeachment] was a political decision, it was not an objective decision or an objective judgment on what he had done,” he said.

The only time an official’s SALN should be released, Marcos said, is when there is a case filed but this still would not be accessible to the public but only to the court. “I think we have to be more protective. If it is going to be used to victimize the person through their SALN, then I don’t see why you would do that,” Marcos added.President Rodrigo Duterte has also not been making public his SALN, especially after the Ombudsman issued a memorandum circular limiting the instances when a public official’s SALN could be accessed by a requesting party.Duterte’s last publicly accessible SALN was in 2017 where he declared a net worth of P28.5 million.
