NO SINGLE PESO DISALLOWANCE. THIS, MR. PRESIDENT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,AS OUR PEOPLE MUST KNOW, IS THE MOST BLATANT, INEPT DEFECT IN THE SPECIAL AUDIT REPORT. GIVEN THAT UNDER THE CONSTITUTION, THE COA HAS EXCLUSIVE POWER TO DISALLOW EXPENSES AND GIVEN THE PLETHORA OF CASES DECIDED BY THE SUPREME COURT UPHOLDING THE DISALLOWANCES MADE BY COA,BAKIT WALANG NI-PISO NA DISALLOWANCE DITO SA AUDIT NG PDAF?THERE WERE ALSO NO RECOMMENDED REALISTIC AND EFFECTIVE MEASURES TO ENABLE THE GOVERNMENT TO RECOVER GOVERNMENT FUNDS ALLEGEDLY WASTED ON ANOMALOUS TRANSACTIONS BY THE IMPLEMENTING AGENCIES AND LGUs.
Ilan po sa mga simple ngunit epektibong pagbabagong isinagawa ni Secretary Singson sa DPWH: Wala nang letter of intent, na ginagamit ng mga bidder para magkuntsabahan; pinasimple ang proseso ng bidding, kaya mas marami nang nagkukumpitensya para sa proyekto, at mas sulit na ang presyong nakukuha ng gobyerno. Nasa oras na ring magbayad ang gobyerno, kaya mas nae-engganyo ang mahuhusay na contractor na makiambag sa pagtatayo ng pambansang imprastruktura.
