Many revolutions did not bring the reforms that were promised. Do you agree with me na dapat yung low-lying fruit, y\u2019ung obvious na obvious, iyon y\u2019ung [dapat] unahin?\u201d tanong ni Cayetano kay DPWH Secretary Vivencio \u201cVince\u201d Dizon sa budget hearing ng ahensya nitong October 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/RoadNews-official-photo-format-32.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/RoadNews-official-photo-format-32.png 940w, https:\/\/roadnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/RoadNews-official-photo-format-32-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/roadnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/RoadNews-official-photo-format-32-768x644.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tinukoy ni Cayetano ang mga ghost projects bilang pinakamalinaw at lantad na anyo ng katiwalian na dapat unahing imbestigahan at linisin ng DPWH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAng definition ng \u2018ghost [projects],\u2019 nag-allocate ng pera [at] binayaran, pero wala talagang project. It\u2019s easier to focus on that kasi walang mapapaliwanag y\u2019ung guilty,\u201d sabi niya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ayon kay Cayetano, ang tungkulin ng DPWH sa nation-building ay dapat \u201ctwo-fold\u201d o may dalawang bahagi: ang pagtatayo ng mga imprastraktura at ang paglilinis ng korapsyon sa loob ng ahensya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dagdag pa niya, dapat lampasan ng reporma ng DPWH ang simpleng pagpigil lamang sa katiwalian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe biblical principle is prevent evil, do good, pero if you&#8217;re going to be spiritual, may isa pa: align with what God wants. If you apply it to civil government, it&#8217;s not enough that we prevent corruption and do good. We have to align the priorities sa kung ano ang priority ng administration,\u201d sabi ni Cayetano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sumang-ayon naman si Dizon at sinabing mahigit 400 umano\u2019y ghost projects na ang natukoy ng validation team ng DPWH. Tiniyak din niyang papanagutin ang mga sangkot dito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hinimok ni Cayetano ang DPWH na agad kumilos sa mga kasong ito at gamitin ang mga dokumentong hawak na ng ahensya bilang ebidensya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnything that\u2019s also obvious, we would appreciate action on it. Whether you refer it to the ICI [Independent Commission for Infrastructure] or the Ombudsman. Ang point ko lang naman, nasa inyo ang papeles,\u201d wika ni Cayetano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iminungkahi rin niya na kuhanan ng litrato ng mga district engineer (DE) at lokal na opisyal ang mga proyekto para masigurong totoong ginagawa ang mga ito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ayon kay Cayetano, makatutulong ito para matiyak ang transparency at maiwasan ang paglusot ng mga ghost project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIs it possible that you ask your DEs or the lowest level whatever, kunan lang ng picture&#8230; para at least may reference ka,\u201d sabi ni Cayetano kay Dizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Binigyang diin ni Cayetano na hindi ito dapat ituring na pampulitikang hakbang kundi isang moral at institusyonal na \u201crevival\u201d para muling maibalik ang tiwala ng publiko.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cReform doesn\u2019t come from tearing things down but from rebuilding them right,\u201d aniya. \u201cThat\u2019s the kind of revival our country needs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ernie Reyes nag-uulat para sa RoadNews<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ni Ernie Reyes Hinimok ni Senate Minority Leader Alan Peter Cayetano ang Department of Public&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bansa"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","covernews-featured":"","covernews-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/author\/ldjtkwtu\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/category\/bansa\/\" rel=\"category tag\">BANSA<\/a>","tag_info":"BANSA","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3104"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3104\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3106,"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3104\/revisions\/3106"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/roadnews.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
