LOOK: Lingayen-Dagupan Archbishop Socrates Villegas cautioned the public against individuals or groups using public frustration over government corruption to advance personal or political interests.

In a pastoral statement, Villegas said rising public anger has created an environment vulnerable to manipulation by those seeking influence through “intrigue and innuendo.”

He urged the faithful to be wary of “false prophets” and “ambitious adventurists” who offer quick solutions that often mask self-serving motives.

LOOK: 'Kwento lang': Lacson says Zaldy Co's testimony has no probative value

“As of now, it has no probative value because it was not done under oath,” said Lacson, chairman of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee which is leading the investigation into the anomalous government flood control projects, when asked about his reaction to Co's allegations against the President.

In his video statement sent to reporters on Friday, Co, who is implicated in the flood control mess, accused President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, his cousin, former Speaker Martin Romualdez, as well as some Cabinet members, of orchestrating supposed “insertions” worth P100-billion in the national budget.

Malacañang dismissed Co’s allegations “as hearsay,” a matter which Lacson said he could also agree on.

Marcos launches ‘Oplan Kontra Baha’ to reduce Metro Manila flooding

President Marcos has launched Oplan Kontra Baha, a major flood mitigation program aiming to cut Metro Manila flooding by up to 60% through continuous dredging, desiltation, and clearing of waterways. Speaking in Parañaque City on Nov. 12, Marcos said shallow spillways and garbage buildup are key causes of flooding.

The project’s initial nine-month phase will run until mid-2026, with regular maintenance to follow. Marcos stressed that success requires cooperation among the national government, LGUs, and the private sector, thanking business leaders Manny Pangilinan and Ramon Ang for contributing manpower and heavy equipment.

LOOK: Marcos Orders Continuous Relief, Rescue Operations Amid Super Typhoon Uwan

President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. has directed government agencies to sustain relief, rescue, and medical operations in areas affected by Super Typhoon Uwan. During a situation briefing on Nov. 10, Marcos instructed the DSWD to continue assisting evacuees, particularly in the Bicol Region, where about 100,000 families have been displaced.

The DOH was ordered to deploy medical teams to evacuation centers, while the DPWH was tasked to start road rehabilitation to ensure the fast delivery of aid. The DPWH reported 71 roads remain impassable, mainly in Central Luzon, CAR, and Aurora.

The OCD reported four deaths (two for validation) and severe flooding in Pangasinan, where rescue operations continue. Marcos also reminded agencies to monitor weather updates and pursue rehabilitation in areas hit by both Typhoon Tino and Super Typhoon Uwan.

LOOK: P60B to be saved from halving construction material costs

An estimated P60 billion in savings is expected from the 50-percent reduction in the cost of construction materials for all government projects, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) said Monday.

Public Works Secretary Vince Dizon said that the savings would enable the DPWH to build 1,600 kilometers more of concrete roads and 1,000 kilometers of asphalt overlay.

Dizon said the prices of construction materials for government projects are overpriced by as much as 50 percent, which is what the DPWH is getting back as part of its drive to root out corruption in the department.
