I am unable to see log messages that are sent from my GKE clusters using Golang. They work fine when running locally but not from the container running in GKE. Clearly something is misconfigured in GKE but I don't see any errors but not really sure where to look. Any insight or places to check would be very useful.

Below is my code and my cluster scopes (if it helps).

Thanks.
