We are holding accountable—and we will continue to hold accountable—those who practice this culture of entitlement in all government offices, as there are still some who think they can get away with it. A district in Region 4B, for example, began a project worth 300 million pesos, well beyond the 50 million pesos that district engineers can sign off on their own. But they could not leave such a potentially large payday alone. So they cut the project up into components that would not breach the 50 million peso limit that would have required them to seek clearance from the regional and central offices. They tried to keep this system going.
So, ang ginawa po ng ating Department of Public Works and Highways -- ang ganda po nito, ecologically-friendly pa -- yung buko po na kukuhanan ng fiber tawag ho cocowire o quire, yung gagawin ho lalabas ho noon parang lubid galing sa abaka. Ipapatong po yung mga nets sa lupain na lalagyan ng damo or nagkakaron ng damo nang kusa, yung damo ngayon ang tatangan doon sa lupa. So ito po ay matitipid o magiging daan na makatipid ang gobyerno sa three billion budget yearly ng 2.5 billion pesos -- (applause) P500 million na lang po ang gagastusin.
