President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered the suspension of three major infrastructure projects in Zambales due to anomalies, leading to the blacklisting of involved firms.
These projects include the New Zambales Capitol Building and a Sports Complex Track and Football Stadium, which are currently under review by the Commission on Audit (CoA).
Engr. Domingo Mariano, the province's consultant for Engineering and Infrastructure Development, confirmed the suspension but assured eventual completion, with options for rebidding or completion by the Provincial Government.
The New Zambales Capitol Building, a P500-million development contracted to St. Gerrard Construction, is designed as a five-story structure with basement parking.
The Zambales Capitol Building is 78.19 percent complete and targeted for completion in 2027, while the Sports Complex Track and Football Stadium is 46.85 percent complete.
