SYMS Construction Trading owner Sally Santos revealed her company secured 157 projects from the government since 2021, cumulatively worth P1.8 billion (Dh111 million). From these, Santos claims to have earned for herself P86 million (Dh5.3 million) throughout four years until the plot was exposed last year.
In the bail hearing involving former senator Bong Revilla – himself accused of profiting from a ghost flood control project in Bulacan province – Santos said she was asked by government engineers to “lend” her license to projects in exchange for three per cent of the funds.
It was Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) engineer Brice Hernandez who asked her to establish her company in 2017, which was eventually founded in 2019. Hernandez had then included SYMS Construction in anomalous deals and participate in the plot as the government official had insider knowledge of the list of projects granted funds by Congress.
Sa mga taga-Bulacan diyan, baka kilala nyo sila.. lalo na si Sally N. Santos? Pakisabihan na sana mamigay sya ng balato. Hahahahahaha
