Zambales projects on hold
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered the blacklisting of firms involved in anomalous flood control projects, halting three major infrastructure projects in Zambales.
Engr. Domingo Mariano, the province's consultant for Engineering and Infrastructure Development, confirmed the suspension of construction, assuring that all projects will eventually be completed.
The projects, including the New Zambales Capitol Building, are now under review by the Commission on Audit (COA) to determine the extent of completed work.
After the COA review, the projects will either be rebid or completed by the Provincial Government.
The New Zambales Capitol Building, contracted to St. Gerrard Construction, is designed as a five-story structure with basement parking and is intended to be a P500-million development.
