MANILA, PHILIPPINES — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is adamant on personally investigating anomalies surrounding the government’s flood control despite an ongoing inquiry by the Senate and House of Representatives.
Marcos maintained that the ongoing investigation in Congress were the prerogatives of the lawmakers and would not hinder the Palace from launching its own.
“We will have the independent commission. We will organize it. We will support it fully. And all the other organs of government, I'm sure will play their part in finding the truth to all of these – all of these anomalies,” he said in the latest episode of his ‘BBM Podcast.’
The President said that an executive order (EO) was being drafted for the creation of a body dedicated to audit all flood control projects and investigate and charge all those behind anomalous deals., This news data comes from:http://osbw.erlvyiwan.com
