MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Sunday visited Tuba, Benguet to inspect a rock shed project on Camp 6 in Kennon Road.
Accompanied by Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong, Marcos again expressed his dismay after seeing that the P264-million project of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), completed in November 2024, is in “precarious condition.”

“It’s as if nothing was done,” he lamented in Filipino. “It has eroded. It eroded because the protection wall is very weak.”
“It is very low and very weak that’s why the water can seep in,” he added.
