Frustration prompts Iloilo City gov’t to stop 7 DPWH projects in the city

Defining the News

FED UP WITH DPWH’S SLOPPY PERFORMANCE. Iloilo City Mayor Jerry Treñas emotionally expresses his dissatisfaction and frustrations over alleged sloppy performance by the local engineer’s office of the Department of Public Works and Highways. The local government has declared the head of the district engineer’s office a persona non grata, followed by the revocation of building permits for at least seven DPWH infrastructure projects in the city.

These were the Mandurriao public market; the Dulonan, Arevalo multipurpose building; the Dungon C. Mandurriao multi-purpose building; the Tanza Esperanza multipurpose building; the Santa Filomena, Arevalo multipurpose building; the Balantang, Jaro multi-purpose building; and the Katilingban, Molo multipurpose building.

“I have canceled all approval of the city on all DPWH projects on government land – Mandurriao market, all multi-purpose buildings, and the like. All these projects are terribly delayed,” stated Mayor Treñas. He reassured the public that the city is prepared to find the necessary funds to ensure these projects are completed. “The city will look for the funds to complete the projects,” he affirmed.

Treñas expressed dissatisfaction with the DPWH for the prolonged use of city land without acknowledging the delays or expressing gratitude for the city’s support.
