Snippet:
THE Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (KWF) has faced withering public criticism after it gave six of its own commissioners the "Kampeon ng Wika" award. Announced on Aug. 18, 2026, this board decision has been criticized as self-serving and unethical as it contradicts the KWF's traditional recognition of champions of the Filipino language.
