Philippines LIVE: Senate Blue Ribbon Panel Begins Probe of 'Cabral Files' | Sen Panfilo Lacson |N18G

Philippine LIVE: Senate Blue Ribbon Committee Resumes Hearing on Anomalous Flood Control Projects | CNBC TV18 Big-time contractor Curlee Discaya insisted Monday that he had no hand in the purchase of a posh property in Makati allegedly intended for former speaker Martin Romualdez, despite being identified by two confidential witnesses during the resumption of the Senate’s high-stakes probe into the multi-billion-peso flood control scam. Watch the livestream of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing today, January, 2026, as it resumes its investigation into alleged anomalies in government flood control projects. Senators grill officials regarding the delayed implementation and utilization of funds for flood mitigation. Today’s hearing will tackle allegations that former public works secretary Manuel Bonoan sent incorrect grid coordinates to Malacañang, which led inspection teams to tag hundreds of projects as nonexistent. THE Senate Blue Ribbon Committee will begin examining documents left behind by the late Public Works undersecretary Catalina Cabral when it resumes hearings on the flood control bribery scandal Monday, Jan. 19. Sen. Panfilo Lacson, who chairs the committee, said the panel will ask officials from the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) to authenticate the documents now known as the “Cabral files,” copies of which are reportedly in the possession of Lacson and others. While former Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) secretary Manuel Bonoan has already arrived in Manila on Sunday, Jan. 18, Senate President Pro Tempore and Blue Ribbon committee chairman Panfilo Lacson has yet to confirm whether the embattled former official would attend the hearing. Today’s hearing will tackle allegations that Bonoan sent incorrect grid coordinates to Malacañang, which led inspection teams to tag hundreds of projects as nonexistent, inflating initial reports and raising questions about accountability within the DPWH. #philippines #Blueribbon #philippinesSenate #marcosjr #manila #cnbctv18 #livenews
