MANILA – The Marcos administration is making progress in its anti-corruption campaign, with multiple complaints filed against individuals allegedly involved in anomalous and ghost infrastructure projects, Malacañang said on Friday.

In a Palace press briefing, Presidential Communications Undersecretary and Press Officer Claire Castro said the government remains firm in ensuring accountability for those implicated in corruption within infrastructure projects.

“Patuloy ang aksyon ng pamahalaan upang alamin ang katotohanan at panagutin ang mga may sala rito,” Castro said.

According to Castro, the Commission on Audit (COA) has filed 21 Fraud Audit Reports, while the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has initiated four tax evasion cases. The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), meanwhile, has filed 13 complaints and uncovered 421 ghost flood control projects.

The Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI) has also filed one case, with 15 more expected to be lodged in the coming weeks.

Apart from the cases filed, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) has frozen nearly ₱5.2 billion in assets, including bank accounts, insurance policies, motor vehicles, real estate, and e-wallets linked to individuals involved in corruption.

An Immigration Lookout Bulletin Order (ILBO) has likewise been issued against 92 personalities and persons of interest.

Castro emphasized that under President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s direction, the government will continue its efforts to hold wrongdoers accountable and protect public funds.

“Tuloy-tuloy ang aksyon kontra korapsyon. Ang mga hakbang na ito ay tungo sa mas masigasig na pagprotekta ng administrasyon sa kapakanan ng bawat mamamayan at pagbabantay sa kaban ng bayan,” she said.
