HOUSE Majority Leader Ferdinand Alexander “Sandro” Marcos, son of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., appeared before the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI) on Thursday, which is investigating alleged irregularities in flood management projects.
Marcos told reporters before entering the ICI office in Taguig that he was appearing “voluntarily” and had not been invited by the body.
The presidential son requested an executive session, which the ICI granted.
Marcos had previously stated his willingness to cooperate with the ICI, saying in a letter last week, “I welcome the opportunity to shed light on any matter that may assist your review. I stand ready to cooperate, answer questions, and provide any clarification needed to move this investigation forward.”
His voluntary appearance and the subsequent executive session suggest a proactive approach to addressing the ICI’s concerns and providing information related to the flood control projects under scrutiny.
