Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon sought the deferment of ‘’unnecessary’’ government projects until 2023 to finance responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon on Thursday September 16 sought the deferment of ‘’unnecessary’’ government projects until 2023 to finance responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Aside from the P200 million for the construction of the Visayas media hub, the PCOO has also allocated P50 million for a training academy in Bukidnon. These records should include their names, addresses, job descriptions, daily time records, place of assignment, date of engagement and functions, other senators demanded.“Ito yung mga troll?” Drilon asked lightly. “Hindi mo naman aaminin na may troll kayo.”

Drilon asked for proof that the 1,479 temporary hires are “legitimate and existing” and not “ghost employees”, specifically the 375 employees in the PCOO that were flagged by COA. He asked the PCOO to submit their records, including their names, addresses and job description. The committee also asked for the employees’ daily time record.

“Even if they are trolls, we will accept that as long as they are legitimate and existing. We are not asking for their fingerprints, mind you,” he said.
