Marcos Jr. Assured that projects under the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) are being closely monitored, emphasizing transparency and accountability in infrastructure development. The assurance came as part of ongoing efforts to ensure that public funds are used efficiently and effectively.

The president highlighted the importance of maintaining high standards in construction and project management, particularly as the government ramps up its infrastructure initiatives. This includes major projects aimed at improving transportation networks and boosting economic growth.
