Marcos orders contractor blacklisted, charged with graft over ‘ghost’ flood control project in Bulacan

2025/8/21 英字

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Wednesday ordered a construction company immediately blacklisted and charged for a “ghost” flood control project in Baliuag, Bulacan.

Marcos directed the action taken against SYMS Construction Trading after conducting an inspection in Baliuag to verify a report sent via the sumbongsapangulo.ph website about a non-existent concrete river wall.

“Mahigit P55 milyon ang binayad para sa concrete river wall. Bayad na mula pa noong Hunyo, pero sa inspeksyon, wala ni isang hollow block na makita. At hindi pa ito kasama sa listahan ng flood control projects na isinumite ng DPWH (Department of Public Works and Highways). Bakit ito itinago? Hindi na kayo nahiya!” the President said in a statement issued on his Facebook page.

Aside from being blacklisted, the company will be charged for violation of Republic Act No. 3019 or the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act, and malversation of public funds through falsification of public documents.

“Ang SYMS Construction Trading ay agad na iba-blacklist at haharap sa mga kaso sa ilalim ng Revised Penal Code at RA 3019. Hahanapin at sisiyasatin pa natin ang iba pa nilang proyekto,” Marcos said.

“Hindi natin palalampasin ito. Sususpendihin at kakasuhan ang lahat ng opisyal na nag-authorize at nakipagsabwatan dito,” the chief executive added.

Marcos encouraged Filipinos to continue reporting anomalous flood control projects via the sumbongsapangulo.ph website.

“Sama-sama nating wawakasan ang katiwalian at sisiguraduhin na ang pera ng taumbayan ay napupunta sa proyektong para sa tao,” the President said. PND
