Lacson: Evidence Shows Disgraced Ex-SP Cayetano Virtually Controls DPWH Operations in Taguig

Evidence shows disgraced ex-Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano virtually controls Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) operations and other related activities in his bailiwick of Taguig City. And district engineers are unable to act – or keep their posts – if they acted without his approval, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson bared Friday.

“Ang kalakaran sa Taguig virtually controlled ng isang tao. Walang makakagalaw doon na hindi alam ni Cayetano. Yan ang kalakaran (DPWH operations in Taguig are virtually controlled by one person. No one can move without Cayetano’s knowledge. That’s the way it works),” Lacson said in interviews on DZBB and True FM radio.

Lacson: Disgraced Ex-SP Cayetano’s Insincerity Sank His Ceasefire Overtures

Disgraced ex-Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano sought a ceasefire with Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson through some of his colleagues in the majority bloc after Lacson exposed anomalous infrastructure projects in Cayetano’s bailiwick of Taguig City – but Cayetano himself sank the overtures by publicly contradicting them, casting doubts on his own sincerity.

Lacson said Friday that Cayetano privately asked at least five senators from the majority bloc to relay his request for a ceasefire and for the Senate to focus on legislative work, only to publicly deny making such overtures.

“Where is your sincerity when you offer a ceasefire, then deny it at the first opportunity?” Lacson said in English and Filipino, in interviews on DZBB and True FM.

Asked to confirm if Cayetano was the one who sought a ceasefire, Lacson replied: “That is correct, absolutely.”
