President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has ordered an investigation into the rehabilitation of the river protection structure in Barangay Bulusan, Calumpit, Bulacan, after uncovering glaring deficiencies despite official reports declaring the work completed.

During the inspection on Friday, Marcos said'' hindi puwedeng ganito, pambihira. This has been going on for years.”

The President’s inspection revealed that portions of the dike were left unfinished, concrete works were substandard, and silt had already built up along the riverbanks, raising questions about the projmect’s quality and oversight.

Marcos also said that the contractor, St. Timothy Construction, must explain why the structure failed to meet specifications and why parts of the project were seemingly abandoned.

He stressed that accountability will be demanded from the contractor and government officials who approved the project.

The Chief Executive also underscored that project defects waste public funds and endanger communities.

“Lahat ng kasama doon… itra-trace natin saan nanggaling itong mga programang ito, saan napunta ang pondo, bakit ganito ang nangyari at sino ang pumirma na sinabi okay lahat,” the President said. Presidential News Desk
