00:00Meanwhile, the most notorious personalities in the flood control project mess that has captured the nation's attention are all in the Justice Department's Immigration Lookout Bulletin order.
00:09A not-so-inviable distinction topped billed by the disgraced Diskaya couple dismissed former District Engineer Henry Alcantara,
00:15plus dozens more of DPWH engineers and contractors on government's hot list, which are Luisa Elispe details in this report.
00:22The Department of Justice, or DOJ, has added names on the Immigration Lookout Bulletin order, or ELBO.
00:31They have released related to the investigation on the flood control and ghost projects of the government.
00:37In total, there are 43 names on the document, and these are all officials and employees of the Department of Public Works and Highways, or DPWH, and there are also contractors included.
00:48The ELBO was based on the request of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee and the DPWH.
00:54It's a precautionary measure that we are doing so that they will be discouraged from traveling out of the country.
01:02Pag sila yung sumikap na lumabas na bansa, it will not be a pleasant experience.
01:09Kasi government concern yan.
01:11We have to do this as a matter of defense of the state.
01:16First on the list are the Diskaya family, who are owners of the Alpha and Omega General Contractor and other companies that were awarded with hundreds of projects related to flood control.
01:28Next are Alex and Raymond Abelido, owners of Legacy Construction Corporation, awarded with more than 9 billion pesos project.
01:37And there are also other contractors, such as Lubiano and Villanueva, among others.
01:42Also included on the list is the former 1st District Engineer in Bulacan, Henry Alcantara.
01:49There are also two undersecretaries at the DPWH included, which are Jusek Catalina Cabral and Ramon Ariola.
01:56The OIC regional directors of DPWH in NCR and Region 2 are also on the list.
02:02Ramulia said, if there is someone among them who have knowledge in the anomalies with the contracts, it is better to testify instead as a whistleblower in the investigation.
02:13The truth will always set them free, so to speak.
02:19Mauna silang magsabi, may pag-asa silang makalibre.
02:24I mean, without a restitution of course.
02:28Kung may diamond sa gobyerno at meron silang kinita sa uli nila yung pera, pero they will have to testify.
02:36Some people will have to testify.
02:38Yung mauna mag-testify, hindi nga hahabulin na mag-accept.
02:41Even mentioned that an executive order is being made as basis or mechanism for accepting witnesses to the investigation.
02:49Inclusion in the Witness Protection Program or WPP may also be offered.
02:54Yung aming nilalatag na executive order, ay maglalagay din yan ng mechanics para madaling mapuntahan at masamahan ng mga taong gusto magsalita.
03:09Ayun ang pinakamahalaga dito, yung mechanics para meron silang malapitan na pinagkakatiwalaan para malaman natin ang mga pangyayari.
03:19Based on the monitoring of the Bureau of Immigration, there is someone that might have already fled from the country a few days ago before the ILBO was even released.
03:28But this is yet to be verified by the Bureau.
03:30Sa initial verification po, mukhang meron pong isa sa outside the country.
03:36But it has yet to be verified to confirm po kung siya yun or it might be someone na namesake niya.
