Hello Rappler, kindly check the flood control projects in Bacoor Cavite. Simula ng umupo ang mga Revilla lalong lumala ang baha. Panay hukay sa Aguinaldo HiWay kaya naging baku bako na at sobra ang traffic. Thank you.

*At sila sila lang din ang naupo sa pwesto, papalit palit lang ng posisyon

Hello. May I request rappler to investigate Magbubukid partylist Beltran and Mayor Jun Tetanco of Apalit about the flood control and amomalies. Thank you so much.

Proposed Law #108: A Law Requiring the Registrar of Deeds to Submit to the Ombudsman All Unexplained Real Estate Properties of all Corrupt Public Officials and Their Contractors

This proposed law covers only those who have unreasonable increase in real estate properties within a short period of time, particularly within the past five to ten years.

Greedy politicians, public officials, and contractors involved in substandard, incomplete and ghost infrastructure projects are automatically included in the list.

Once proven to be unexplained wealth by verifiable evidence, those real estate properties shall be returned to the Republic of the Philippines to fund the construction of schools and provide scholarships for Filipino children.

This can be a good alternative in SALN publications. Like a database of unexplained wealth directly from the Registrar of Deeds.

This proposed law will be amended in the future.

not flood control related, but please look into this.

Pailaw sa Mayon- based on the FB post of Bicol Connect https://www.facebook.com/100072472685299/posts/820206540405095/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v

Not only will this cause a massive destruction on Mayon's ecosystem, but it will surely create more problem on Albayanos living on the foot of the Mayon.

I wonder if DENR is aware of this unnecessary project of Albay.

(not sure if accurate, the ongoing construction is already more than 4kms )

@Pia Ranada - Rappler Hi mam, is someone investigating the politicians of Ilocos Norte who are also contractors? May relatives din silang contractors who are always gettijg contracts/projects

Hello @tdkjoker ! Yes, we published this story last month! https://www.rappler.com/newsbreak/in-depth/ilocos-norte-big-flood-control-contracts-bryan-alcid-discaya-companies/

Hi @Bella! Thank you for sending this in. Rappler actually did an article about this last March, discussing the environmental and social impacts of the project. You can read it here: https://www.rappler.com/philippines/luzon/mayon-volcano-lighting-project-backlash-costs-environmental-risks/

That said, we'll continue to seek and verify updates about this. If you have any more information or insights, feel free to share them in our Liveable Cities 🏡 chat room, or you can send a full report through this link so our team can look into it further: rplr.co/InvestigateThis.

Hi Rappler,

I have a suggestion to find those accountable per district in the Flood Control Anomaly.

Start from the General Appropriations Act per year.

There must be a specific location for every infrastructure project. Then put it in excel, with a separate column for City, Municipality and Province.

The District can be determined by the City and Municipality.

For every District, there must be at least one accountable Congressman.

Hello @khate @Jroc23 @Nagmamasid25! Our team is planning to visit your areas soon to see the situation firsthand, and we’d like to coordinate with you about it. We've sent you an email. Maraming salamat ulit!
