Lacson: Let Pinoys report other corrupt infrastructure projects

President Marcos needs to expand the citizens' reporting website for flood control to cover all infrastructure projects, as part of efforts to boost transparency in public spending, Senate President Pro Tempore Panfilo Lacson said yesterday.

The senator made the appeal as he welcomed the widened mandate of the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI), which will now scrutinize all infrastructure projects and not just those involving flood control.

"The expanded coverage of the Independent Commission for Infrastructure to include all infrastructure projects, and not just flood control projects, is a most welcome development," Lacson said in a statement.

"In like manner, I hope the scope of the sumbongsapangulo.ph website will likewise be expanded by not limiting its coverage to flood control projects only," he said.
