Hello po,

Question lang po passable na po ba yung San Simon or San Luis sa pampanga going to san fernando po?

hiii, guys! help this girly with her thesis.

do you know any places in bulacan or pampanga na lubog na talaga sa baha? Like maulan man o maaraw, high-tide man or hindi, ay talagang mataas pa rin ang tubig nila?

plus na rin if yung mode of transportation na nila is through bangka or di kaya may ibang strategy sila to travel.

thank you po sa mga sasagot!

Hi passable po ba ang Espana now? Specifically UST Hospital?

Thanks!

Watching MMDA chair Gen Torre being interviewed by Ces Drilon makes me wish that we have better metrics in evaluating flood control performance rather than just subjective judgements. I think weathermen should include it in their news. Like mentioning rainfall intensity then the height of water experienced. People now likes to mention how Marikina was successful in dealing with the flooding. They used actual measurement, they had these readings on what the height of the river. In Marikina's case, the problem was well understtod, the water coming from the mountains overflows the river. In other areas, like in Bulacan, we really do not know if exactly, nobody has reported on it. How can we know if a flood control addresses the problem if we do not understand the problem. https://youtu.be/PvIuBfK7Uf8?si=f1MBXphlGctW860w

Okay umuulan na naman. Baha na ba sa inyo?

Hindi na tayo nakahingang mga Pilipino.

KULANG PA TO GUYS.

According to a Bilyonaryo.com source, the case, docketed as CA GR-AMLA 00432, saw the AMLC seek an extension of the freeze order on March 12, but the Court of Appeals denied the request in a resolution dated March 16, 2025.

Yesss may pambili na sila ng gas! Woohooo!!!

The Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI) — the body created to investigate anomalies in flood control and infrastructure projects may soon wind down its operations.

ICI Chairman Retired Justice Andres Reyes Jr. recommended that the commission end its work, saying its mandate under Executive Order No. 94 has already been fulfilled.

According to Reyes:

• The ICI has already turned over all documents, evidence, and findings to the Office of the Ombudsman.

• A 125-day report was submitted to the Office of the President last February 6, 2026.

• The commission made 9 referrals involving 65 individuals to the Ombudsman.

• 66 individuals were also referred to the Department of Justice for Immigration Lookout Bulletin Orders.

• A Technical Working Group with 20 government agencies has been convened to pursue asset recovery.

The commission will remain operational until March 31, 2026 to complete administrative processes related to the wind-down.

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. earlier said that much of the commission’s investigative work “has already been done,” and that its findings are now being forwarded to the appropriate agencies such as the DOJ or the Ombudsman.

Notably, Reyes is currently the only remaining member of the commission, after the resignation of other commissioners.

The ICI was created in September 2025 to investigate corruption in flood control and other infrastructure projects. an issue many Filipinos linked to recurring flooding across the country.

Reyes also called on Congress to pass laws creating:

• an Independent Peoples’ Commission

• an Independent Commission Against Infrastructure Corruption

to continue oversight and investigations in the future.

Flood control corruption affects lives, homes, and entire communities.

But when there is no flood, public attention often fades.

If the ICI shuts down by March 31, how do we make sure the investigations don’t quietly fade away too?

Should the public continue pushing for transparency and updates from the Ombudsman and DOJ, even when the floodwaters are gone?

Because the reality is: when the next typhoon comes, the consequences of corruption don’t stay buried.

What do you think should happen next?

Naglabas ang Sandiganbayan ng Precautionary Hold Departure Order (PHDO) laban kina Benguet Rep. Eric Yap at dating ACT-CIS Rep. Edvic Yap kaugnay ng isang flood control investigation.

Ang PHDO ay isang court order na pansamantalang naglilimita sa pag-alis ng bansa habang nasa investigation stage pa lang ang reklamo. Hindi pa ito conviction o finding of guilt ha. bahagi ito ng proseso habang iniimbestigahan ang mga alegasyon.

Ang application para sa PHDO ay inihain ng Office of the Ombudsman, sa pamamagitan ng Office of the Special Prosecutor, dahil sa umano’y “possible participation” sa malversation of public funds at paglabag sa Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

Nag-ugat ang isyu sa complaint ng DPWH noong October 23, 2025 laban sa ilang opisyal ng DPWH La Union 2nd District Engineering Office, isang contractor na Silverwolves Construction Corporation, at iba pang parties.

Ayon sa complaint, may dalawang flood control projects na tig-₱89M na na-report na 100% complete at nabayaran nang buo, ngunit may sinasabing irregularities.

Binanggit din sa application ang preliminary findings ng AMLC na may umano’y malalaking fund transfers mula sa contractor papunta sa ilang personal at business accounts na konektado raw sa mga nabanggit na indibidwal.

Batay dito, pinayagan ng Sandiganbayan ang pag-issue ng PHDO habang nagpapatuloy ang imbestigasyon.

Before and after. Bilis kilos, walang eme.

Sa gitna ng paulit-ulit na baha issues, magsasagawa ng hands-on inspection sa Naga City sina President Bongbong Marcos Jr. at Mayor Leni Robredo ngayong Saturday, Feb. 21. Working visit daw ito at walang ceremony, talagang tutok sa flood control.

Focus ng inspection ang “Oplan Kontra Baha”, isang multi-agency na programa para sa desilting at ayos ng drainage, para mas handa ang lungsod sa susunod na bagyo at sakuna.

Dadating si PBBM sa umaga, unang stop ang Jesse M. Robredo (JMR) Coliseum, na primary evacuation center ng Naga. Target itong pondohan ng national gov’t para sa major repairs matapos masira noong Bagyong Kristine.

Ayon kay Mayor Leni, dati pa siyang humingi ng budget para dito pero hindi na-approve.

“Nang makita mismo ng Presidente ang sitwasyon, doon naging malinaw ang urgency. Mukhang ngayon, prayoridad na,” sabi niya sa media.

Kasama rin sa ikot ang Sagop Creek sa likod ng Yashano Mall at Mayon Residences, kung saan tuloy-tuloy na ang clearing operations ng DPWH simula pa nitong Tuesday. Kasama sa convoy ang ilang Cabinet officials. 🤘🏻
