President Duterte said that he will look into the contract of the Manila Light Rail Transit (LRT) with the government next as he expressed anew his frustration over the onerous contract between the government and two water distribution companies in Metro Manila.

President Rodrigo Roa Duterte delivers his speech after leading the awarding ceremony for the 2018 Presidential Award for Child-Friendly Municipalities and Cities at the Malacañan Palace on November 28, 2019.

“Karami na nilang pera, sobra-sobra na. Getting most of the contract, LRT. Merong — silipin ko. Meron man pala sila sa LRT ,” he said. President Duterte vowed last week to correct all prejudicial government contracts with private entities after he found that the government’s deal with Maynilad and Manila Water was lopsided.

“For all I care, they can all withdraw but I still have to maintain what’s a matter of dignity for us,” he added. According to the President, the issue on the onerous water contracts really angered him and caused him to be even more disappointed with the rich people in the country. “Alam mo kung bakit? Bakit malakas loob nila? Akala nila they’d always control Philippine politics. Akala nila lahat ng presidente [kaya nila] ,” he said.
