President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. on Wednesday lauded the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas for presenting Philippine banknotes bearing his signature and new coin series with the BSP logo.

During the presentation, he assured the public that his administration will spend public funds on programs and projects that benefit all Filipinos.

"Be assured that it is the policy of this administration, to ensure that every peso and every centavo that the government spends in its programs and projects will be to the benefit of all Filipinos," Marcos said.

"So I convey my full support to all of our BSP officials and their employees. I also have complete confidence in your capability, competence, and integrity," he added.

The Chief Executive also called on the BSP and other concerned agencies to further intensify their efforts against counterfeiting and other illegal activities, ensure price stability, enrich banking reforms, and sharpen strategies to guarantee that public interest remains at the heart of the government's priorities.

Marcos encouraged government agencies and the Filipino people to innovate and come up with sustainable and smart solutions that will uplift lives and lessen the burden on the people.

He rallied for unity to improve the safety and efficiency of the Philippine financial system and make it an instrument of progress, benefitting ordinary Filipinos.
