Full Briefing from DPWH on projects from 2016 to 2025

I requested a full briefing from DPWH on projects from 2016 to 2025. After assessing those with reported damages, I made it clear: contractors must fix them at no additional cost to the government. Public funds are meant to serve the people, not to pay twice for the same work. At the same time, I am amenable to supporting the creation of an independent commission that will provide greater transparency and accountability in monitoring infrastructure projects. This is how we safeguard taxpayer's money and ensure that development is truly felt on the ground. But accountability should not rest on public officials alone. We must all be active citizens not only on social media, but also in keeping watch over the programs, services, and projects that shape our communities.
