00:00I have ordered, or I will order today, a POS to all biddings of locally funded projects nationwide.

00:13POS.

00:14Why ako nagpapapos? Bakit ako nagpapapos?

00:18Kasi kailangan muna naming i-review at aralin based on the President's Directive to Clean House.

00:28Okay? So, the President does not want any more money of the government, of the DPWH, thrown sa igog.

00:42Sabi niya, use his own words.

00:45Ayaw na niyang matapon na naman sa igog ang mga pera at ang mga proyekto ng taong bayan.

00:53Kaya, today, I will issue an order to pause all the ongoing bidding of the locally funded projects.

01:03Foreign assisted projects will continue.
