Critical reactions 
Marcos received criticism for his unannounced visit to Singapore, where he attended the 2022 Singapore Grand Prix. Kilusang Mayo Uno criticized him by saying that the trip was incredibly insensitive in time where Filipinos were grappling with record-high inflation as well as dealing with the aftermath of another violent super typhoon [Noru] which occurred a week before Marcos' visit to Singapore. Bayan Secretary General Renato Reyes questioned why the palace had not announced Marcos' visit to Singapore if the trip was of an official nature. Noting that explanations and statements were only provided by officials when the news broke to the public that Marcos was in Singapore unannounced. The Palace refrained from releasing a statement on the matter even as images circulated on social media of Marcos, his family and some of his staff attending the event.  When Marcos released a statement on the matter, he deflected criticisms by noting that his trip was meant to drum up business relations, saying "They say that playing golf is the best way to drum up business, but I say it's Formula 1."  An unnamed palace official spoke to AP News saying that Marcos and his family took a military jet primarily to watch the Grand Prix. The official also noted that this was Marcos' third trip since winning the presidency in May 2022.

Several opposition lawmakers have described Marcos' string of international trips as more an attempt to "rehabilitate and repackage" his family's image rather than to make efforts to uplift the lives of Filipinos. Congresswoman France Castro stated that "By hobnobbing with the current movers and shakers of the world, the President is slowly trying to erase the corruption-laden and human rights violations-rife name of his father." She criticized the Marcoses for speaking of prioritizing food security, while Filipino farmers are unable to own the land they farm. She also noted of the rapid conversion of farmland to residential and commercial zones by Marcos' allies.
