TALSIK is acronym for Tanggalin ang mga Linta, Sagabal, Inutil, at Kurakot sa gobyerno!

LINTA – Government parasites who leech on public resources for their personal gain

SAGABAL – Obstructionist leaders who like to oppose but have nothing to propose

INUTIL – Officials whose ineptness and incompetence are exceeded only by their arrogance

KURAKOT – Thieves who masquerade as public servants so they can raid the people’s treasury

Group Mission: To help overcome poverty and underdevelopment by EFFECTIVELY eradicating corruption and incompetence in government

We are Filipinos who believe that there is hope for our people, that the solution to pervasive corruption, incompetence, poverty, and underdevelopment is not cynicism and despair but a deep understanding of the issues and a moral decision to take action. We commit ourselves to actively oppose and expose corruption and incompetence in government, as well as to relentlessly find, create, and promote ways to effectively help eradicate them for good.

We’re not just talk ... through our SOLUTIONS FORUM and a NETWORK OF COMMITTED ADVOCATES, we pursue concrete solutions and tangible results!
