00:00Some Caloacan residents found an ally in Facebook meme page follow the trend movement known as FTTM.
00:07This after re-elected Caloacan Mayor Dale Along Malapitan actively responded to FTTM's posts about the concerns of Caloacan residents.
00:16In May, FTTM shared a street lighting project update from Malapitan's Facebook page.
00:21It jokingly attributed the street's brightness to the camera's ISO settings, merely being increased from ISO 100 to ISO 1600.
00:29One social media user joked the mayor was flexing the bare minimum.
00:33Malapitan responded after the post went viral, saying the brightness was brought about by the streetlights and no adjustments.
00:40FTTM replied in a separate post telling the mayor, pay attention to your constituents' grievances, not our memes.
00:47The same day, FTTM asked the mayor about a photo showing a signage for a flood control project in a flooded area in Caloacan.
00:54The signage had the word wall misspelled.
00:56A user commented how the politicians didn't forget to place their photos in the sign, but were remiss in checking for spelling errors.
01:04In early June, FTTM called out Malapitan's post about a creek cleanup operation, with the before and after photos supposedly having the same timestamp.
01:12The mayor deleted the post shortly after, with no explanation.
01:16One user said, quote,
01:17Let's report all our grievances directly to FTTM.
01:21The mayor has been paying a lot of attention to the comments here.
