Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said no one will be spared, including his relatives and allies, in the government’s probe on the misuse of public funds for flood control projects and threw his support behind protests against corruption.

“Of course, they are enraged, of course they are angry. I am angry. We should all be angry because what is happening is not right,” Marcos said in a televised briefing on Monday. “If I wasn’t president, I might be out in the streets with them.”
