He said this after receiving documents through a Freedom of Information (FOI) request from the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) on Thursday, Sept. 25.

"To be fair, since 2019, I have never heard of any ghost project or anything like that within Pasig City's jurisdiction. But (1), we will make sure; and (2), we will also check for quality and effectiveness," the mayor said.
