Philippine Senate LIVE: Senate Blue Ribbon Committee Resumes Hearing On Flood Control Projects
On September 22, 2025, the Philippine Senate’s Blue Ribbon Committee, chaired by Senate President Pro Tempore Ping Lacson, reconvened its motu proprio inquiry into alleged anomalies and corruption in the country’s flood control initiatives under the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH). This session builds on prior hearings (September 1, 8, and 18), scrutinizing over P13.8 billion in questionable budget insertions, substandard projects, and implicated officials including Senators Jinggoy Estrada and Joel Villanueva, as well as private contractors. Triggered by Lacson’s privilege speeches “Flooded Gates of Corruption Parts 1 & 2” and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s call for accountability in his recent State of the Nation Address, the probe aims to expose graft, enhance legislative reforms, and improve disaster resilience amid recurring typhoons.
