Palace probes Great Pacific Builders over film heritage building project

A construction firm owned by the Discaya family, Great Pacific Builders and General Contractor Inc., is under investigation for alleged substandard work on the Philippine Film Heritage Building in Manila.

Palace Press Officer Undersecretary Atty. Claire Castro announced the investigation during an onsite inspection of the facility, noting issues with infrastructure projects beyond flood control.

The reconstruction of the Philippine Film Heritage Building was scheduled for completion on September 4, 2025.

Castro questioned why the project was not finished on time and why the construction appeared to be below standard.

The Marcos administration is looking into infrastructure initiatives that may have questionable quality, as observed during the inspection.
