The Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC) utilized P107.568 million funding for the clearing of six waterways in Metro Manila in 2018 but reported low accomplishments ranging from only 1 to 27.65 percent. This was revealed in the 2018 audit report on the agency released by the Commission on Audit last May 31. It added the PRRC should not have awarded contracts until it has resolved right-of-way issues, as provided under section 17.6 of RA 9184 or the Government Procurement Reform Law.
