by Emma Walker – News Editor
written by Emma Walker – News Editor

MANILA,Philippines – Public ‌Works Secretary vince‍ Dizon announced‍ Tuesday he will dissolve the‍ internal⁣ special examination team created by his predecessor,Manuel‍ Bonoan,to probe anomalous flood control projects. dizon stated ‍his ‌belief that an internal investigation is inappropriate and that the matter is best handled⁤ by‌ an independent commission⁣ to be formed by President Ferdinand Marcos ‍Jr.

Dizon emphasized the need for impartiality, stating,‍ “I will ⁢dissolve it. I think it is indeed not‍ right to investigate yourself.” he added, “the ​President ⁤will create an independent‍ commission. That’s the proper way.‌ We should trust the wisdom of ​the President, we need an independent commission. You don’t investigate‌ yoru​ own organization. ⁢I will abolish it today.” The‌ move comes after Bonoan established⁢ the‍ Department of​ Public Works and ‌Highways (DPWH) Anti-Graft and corrupt Practices Committee on August 28, 2023, through Department Order 166, in response to⁤ a scandal surrounding flood control ⁣projects. ⁤The dissolution signals a shift towards a more independent review of the allegations ‍and a commitment ⁤to transparency⁤ within the DPWH.

Lacson Denies Interfering in Flood Control Probe

Lacson Denies Interference in Flood Control⁣ Probe, Addresses Tensions wiht Marcoleta

MANILA, Philippines – Senator Panfilo Lacson clarified ⁤his position on the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee‘s probe​ into⁢ questionable flood control projects,⁤ responding to insinuations by ‍committee chairman Senator ‌Francis⁢ Tolentino Marcoleta that he sought to reschedule hearings to avoid Marcoleta’s leadership. The exchange ‍stems from a ‌scheduling‌ conflict‍ with the Senate Finance Committee’s hearing on the proposed 2026 budget.

Lacson addressed⁢ the issue following Marcoleta’s comments on a television program, where he criticized‌ Lacson, Senator Francis Pangilinan, and ⁤Senate Minority Leader Vicente Sotto III for proposing⁤ an self-reliant body to investigate flood control anomalies, alleging an attempt to undermine the Blue Ribbon Committee’s ⁢mandate.

“To set the record straight, ​no one ⁣is interfering in⁢ his work. We ‍all want to have good governance,” Lacson stated in a radio ‌interview, speaking in ⁤Filipino.He explained that his request was not specifically aimed at Marcoleta, but rather a suggestion to reschedule both the Blue⁢ Ribbon⁤ Committee hearing, scheduled ‌for 9 a.m.on September 1st, and the Finance Committee hearing, set ‍for 10 a.m. that ⁤same day, ​due to the⁢ importance of both proceedings. ‌The‍ Finance Committee hearing will include a briefing by the Development budget Coordination Committee on the Proposed Fiscal ⁤Year 2026 National Expenditure Program.

Lacson emphasized he recognizes Marcoleta’s ‍mandate as chairman​ and‌ did not intend‌ to belittle the committee’s hearing. “I was⁣ not ⁣asking him to reschedule his hearing. I merely asked ⁢either hearings⁣ to be held on another date, as they are both crucial,” he said.

He concluded​ by stating, “I don’t want a fight but I⁤ won’t back ⁤down from⁢ one,” clarifying his intent to‍ correct any misimpressions created by Marcoleta’s statements.The Blue Ribbon Committee is currently probing possibly “ghost ‌or ⁢substandard ​flood control projects.”

Flood Control Scandal: Calls for Independent Investigation

by Emma Walker – News Editor
written by Emma Walker – News Editor

Calls Mount for Independent Probe into Alleged “Ghost”⁣ Projects

Manila, Philippines – Following President Marcos Jr.’s condemnation of⁣ widespread corruption within⁢ goverment‍ infrastructure projects, notably in flood control, a chorus‌ of groups is demanding the formation of an independent fact-finding body too investigate the ‌alleged misuse of public funds.

Labor groups, ‌including nagkaisa and ⁢the ‌Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), are advocating for a⁤ panel ​modeled⁤ after⁣ past truth commissions – such as those established ⁢to investigate ‌the assassinations of Ninoy Aquino and the series ​of⁤ coup attempts, as well ⁣as extrajudicial killings. ⁣Nagkaisa Chairman Sonny Matula emphasized the need for citizen‌ participation,⁣ stating that such a commission ⁢would ensure a thorough and impartial investigation.

The groups argue that the billions ⁤of pesos reportedly lost to fraudulent projects‍ – often referred to ‍as “ghost projects” – could have been utilized to stimulate economic growth, support small and⁣ medium enterprises, create jobs, and provide much-needed⁣ financial stability to ‌social ⁢security systems like PhilHealth and the SSS. ‍Matula ‌specifically called for the regularization of the 832,000 contractual ‌and job order workers ​currently⁣ lacking job security.

Beyond⁣ the formation of a commission, calls are also ⁣being made for parallel investigations by law enforcement agencies. matula ‍urged the Department of⁢ Justice (DOJ), the⁤ National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), and the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) to launch their own inquiries to⁣ prevent further misappropriation of funds.However, concerns‌ have⁣ been‍ raised regarding potential ⁢conflicts of interest. ML Party-list Rep. Leila de lima voiced objections ‍to a proposed tri-committee investigation led by members of the House‌ of representatives, citing the possibility of involvement by some​ lawmakers‌ in the alleged anomalous projects.⁣ ‍ She argued‍ that such⁤ a​ setup could damage the integrity of the institution and erode public trust.

TUCP General⁤ Secretary Arnel Dolendo expressed the outrage felt by Filipino workers, ​who struggle⁣ with⁢ low wages while their tax contributions are allegedly being stolen. ​ He⁣ stressed the importance of​ an independent body with diverse depiction,including labor advocates,to identify those responsible for what he termed “economic sabotage.”

“This isn’t simply about‌ corruption in ​flood control; it’s about rebuilding trust in government, safeguarding⁤ public funds, and ending ‌the ‍cycle where workers bear ​the brunt⁣ of⁣ the crimes committed by ​those in power,” Dolendo ‍stated.‍

## Wauwatosa Faces Recovery After Historic Flooding

Wauwatosa is ⁤grappling with the aftermath of historic rainfall that ‌caused meaningful flooding‍ adn⁣ damage, particularly to Hart Park [[1]]. The Menomonee River overflowed,⁣ leading to significant property‌ damage‍ and the ​closure of Hart Park [[3]].

The park’s football field, home to Marquette High and Tosa East, is currently‍ unusable, forcing Tosa East’s first⁣ game to be moved to Vincent High School in milwaukee [[3]]. Damage to⁢ the field and drainage system is‍ estimated​ to be in the millions of dollars [[3]].

A glimmer of hope arrived with a $1 million donation from the Tosa foundation to aid in Hart Park’s recovery [[3]]. While this donation ⁤is substantial, it won’t cover the total cost of repairs. The playground also sustained damage, with fencing and caution tape surrounding affected areas [[3]].The outdoor stage​ is also closed indefinitely [[3]].

Wauwatosa is known for its boutique shopping, restaurants, and small-town charm, located just minutes from downtown ‍Milwaukee [[1]] and boasts over 100 locally owned businesses in its Village area [[2]].
