FALSE. The Philippine government, through the DICT and Presidential Communications Office (PCO), sent a formal letter to Meta asking for action against fake news on Facebook.
FACT. There is no verified evidence confirming the existence of the alleged directive or letter described in the post. The claim is unverified and misleading.
The post circulating online presents a “leaked letter” narrative, claiming it was sent to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg regarding disinformation in the Philippines.
The content uses official-sounding language and document-style formatting to appear credible, but it does not provide any publicly released or verifiable government documentation.
There are no official announcements from the Department of Information and Communications Technology or the Presidential Communications Office confirming that such a letter exists in the form being shared online.
No credible news organization has published or authenticated the document being circulated.
While the Philippine government has previously engaged with tech companies on issues such as online safety, content moderation, and platform accountability, these general discussions do not validate specific unverified “leaked letters” circulating on social media.
Because of this, the claim should be treated as false unless supported by official government publication or verified reporting.
