No less than a complete overhaul of the Philippine Contractors Accreditation Board (PCAB) is needed at this time, in the wake of its role in the corruption behind substandard and ghost flood control projects.
Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson stressed this Thursday following the reported resignation of PCAB executive director Herbert Matienzo, even as he scored the worsening stench of corruption in government.
“A complete overhaul of the PCAB board is in order at this point. The PCAB has been a low-key yet corrupt-ridden regulatory body which, in tandem with the Department of Public Works and Highways has methodically punched us in the gut, providing the first of a one-two punch thus knocking out our hard earned tax payments,” Lacson said.
