Lacson: Teodoro’s China Rebuke Shows What a Brilliant Mind Can Bring to World Stage

By upholding the Philippines’ position on sovereignty and international law at a high-level security forum in Seoul, Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. showed what the Philippines can bring to the world stage, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Sunday.

Lacson noted the praise Teodoro earned from netizens in South Korea for rebuking Chinese delegates over their questioning of the 2016 South China Sea Arbitration Award at the forum.

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.

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.

Lacson: Taguig Reclamation, Infra Evidence Makes Cayetano ‘Quake While Quacking’

The evidence gathered on “illegal” reclamation and infrastructure activities in Taguig City is making Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano “quake while quacking,” Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Thursday.

Lacson said that while Cayetano can make all the accusations he wants about the investigation being “politically motivated,” the evidence has spoken and is now with the Office of the Ombudsman.

Lacson Rebuts Cayetano on Illegally Reclaimed Land in Taguig City: What If It Wasn’t Exposed?

If the alleged illegal reclamation activities on the Taguig City side of Laguna Lake had not been exposed, would Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano still be “hoping” that the allegations of illegally titled properties in the area are true so the government could stand to gain from the land?

Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson raised this question Monday after Cayetano claimed over the weekend that the parcels of allegedly illegally reclaimed land, including an 18-hectare property, could go to the government.

“WHAT IF IT WASN’T EXPOSED?” Lacson said on X.
