Senate eyes 2026 budget purge amid DPWH red flags
Business World Philippines
|September 05, 2025
THE PHILIPPINE Senate will prioritize removing questionable items from the proposed 2026 national budget after senators raised concerns about anomalous projects under the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH).
-
"The first order of business is assuring that the 2026 budget is corruption-free, and the projects are indeed well-studied and with feasibility studies, and the projects will be felt by the people," Senator Sherwin T. Gatchalian told Money Talks with Cathy Yang on One News on Thursday."
During a Senate budget hearing earlier in the week, lawmakers flagged the DPWH's spending plan, citing projects with similar costs and those that reappeared in the 2026 National Expenditure Plan despite already being funded under the 2025 General Appropriations Act.
Mr. Gatchalian, who heads the Senate finance committee, said some projects divided into phases had identical funding figures, while others seemed to resurface in the new budget.

Second-gen, hybrid MG HS boasts long range, five-star safety ratings
IT WOULD BE no exaggeration to say that, as the initial hype over battery electric vehicles (BEVs) is plateauing for a number of reasons, hybrid powertrains are becoming sort of the de facto poster child for electrification. This is, of course, helped along by friendlier government policy, such as zero import duty on hybrids.
