ICI may nadiskubreng 'chop-chop' project: Singson nainis sa nadatnang 'kalokohan' sa QC

For the first time since its creation, the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI) inspected several questionable flood control projects in Quezon City on Thursday (September 18) Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte personally accompanied ICI Chairman and Former Associate Justice Andres Reyes Jr., former Department of Public Works and Highways Secretary Rogelio Singson, SGV Country Managing Rossana Fajardo, and Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong, who serves as the group’s special adviser. Their first stop was a retaining wall built right in front of an already completed retaining wall along Culiat creek. At first, the ICI members declined to grant interviews. But Singson could not hide his frustration after seeing another flood wall project along the San Juan River which supposedly has 92 phases. One segment costs more than P141 million. “Kalokohan. Obvious naman, chop-chop yun… Para hindi umabot sa limit ng district engineer, below P150 (million) lahat,” he said. Singson was referring to the scheme where a single project is divided into multiple segments so that it falls within the project cost threshold of the DPWH District Engineering Office, and control of the project does not get transferred to the regional level. — Report from Andrea Taguines, ABS-CBN News For more ABS-CBN News videos, click the link below:    • ABS-CBN News   For more Breaking News & Live Coverage videos, click the link below:    • Breaking News & Live Coverage   For more latest news and analysis from ABS-CBN News videos, click the link below:    • The latest news and analysis from ABS-CBN ...   For more News Digital News Raw Cuts, click the link below:    • News Digital Raw Cuts 2025   Subscribe to the ABS-CBN News channel! - http://bit.ly/TheABSCBNNews Watch full episodes on iWantTFC for FREE here: http://iwanttfc.com Visit our website at http://news.abs-cbn.com Facebook:   / abscbnnews   Twitter:   / abscbnnews   Instagram:   / abscbnnews   #ABSCBNNews #LatestNews #NewsDigital
