A no-nonsense public servant for more than 50 years, PANFILO “PING” MORENA LACSON has been circumspect in matters of public interest and committed against various forms of corruption and wrongdoing, in line with his personal credo: “Ang tama, ipaglaban. Ang mali, labanan. (What is right must be kept right. What is wrong must be set right).”

Lacson first earned a tough, no-nonsense reputation while serving in the Philippine National Police: solving high-profile crimes including kidnap-for-ransom cases in the 1980s and 1990s; and reviving the PNP’s glory days as Chief, PNP from 1999 to 2001.

In the Senate, Lacson – as an untiring, tenacious watchdog of the national budget – made sure dubious congressional insertions (a.k.a. pork barrel) and useless appropriations are checked and deleted during plenary debates. More about Ping Lacson here.

This website contains official photos, videos, speeches and statements of Ping Lacson. The PINGbills section contains his bills, resolutions and committee reports (2016 onwards). The Busting the Lies section seeks to correct false impressions about Ping and his advocacies.

Lacson: After Romualdez Arrest, Let Trial Proceed and Let Evidence Speak

Following the arrest of former Speaker Martin Romualdez, it is now time to let the trial proceed and let the evidence speak on the flood control scandal, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Monday evening.

Lacson said the arrest of Romualdez, a cousin of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., should silence critics who have accused the President of weak leadership and lack of resolve.

In Filipino: Lacson: Matapos ang Pag-Aresto kay Romualdez, Ituloy ang Paglilitis at Hayaang Magsalita ang Ebidensya

Lacson: Flood Control Probe Must Be Thorough, Not Hasty—and Free From Obstruction

Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson over the weekend stressed the need for the investigation into anomalous flood control and other infrastructure projects to be deliberate, methodical and thorough – and free from obstruction – as he rejected Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano’s characterization of the probe as a “striptease” without evidence.

Lacson said Cayetano’s remarks only exposed his ignorance of how investigations into complex corruption cases, including those involving infrastructure projects in Taguig City, are conducted.

In Filipino: Lacson: Imbestigasyon sa Flood Control, Dapat Masusi, Hindi Minamadali, at Walang Pagharang

Lacson: ‘Ghost Hunt’ Cayetano Mocked Turned Up Real Ghost Projects, Prompting Ombudsman Probe

The “ghost hunt” that Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano mocked has turned up numerous suspected “ghost” slope protection and flood mitigation projects along the Taguig River that the Office of the Ombudsman is now investigating, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Saturday.

Lacson noted Cayetano’s latest social media post insinuating that the investigation into anomalous projects in Taguig was a “ghost hunt” was “true” – but not in the way Cayetano meant it.

In Filipino: Lacson: ‘Ghost Hunt’ na Hirit ni Cayetano, May Totoong ‘Ghost Projects’ na Natuklasan – at Iniimbestiga na ng Ombudsman
