At least 2,000 people involved in flood scam – Lacson
November 23, 2025
|The Philippine Star
For Senate President Pro Tempore Panfilo Lacson, who exposed the ghost and substandard flood control projects in Oriental Mindoro and Bulacan, there are more people involved in the corruption scandal than the 1,200 personalities being investigated by the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI).
He was reacting to ICI Commissioner Rogelio Singson’s statement that at least 1,200 people are criminally liable for the alleged kickbacks scheme, with 15 individuals involved per ghost project.
With a total of 472 ghost flood control projects inspected by the ICI, the people involved would surely be at least 2,000, Lacson said in a dwIZ interview yesterday.
