Senate President Francis "Chiz" Escudero is seeking a review on the supposed increase in the budget for the new Senate building at Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City.In an ambush interview on Monday, Escudero shared that he was surprised with the P23-billion allocation for the construction of Senate's new home, which he noted was only bidded out for P8.9 billion.
Di ba kagula-gulantang ang P13 bilyon? Edi mas nakakagulantang ang P23 para sa isang opisina lamang," he said, noting that the allocation might be of the same amount with the "luxurious" buildings in Makati or Bonifacio Global city.According to the Senate president, they are still finding out if the supposed P10-billion additional funding for the new Senate building was already approved or it is still being requested.
