Pasay city: The Department of Budget and Management (DBM) has launched an online tracker for flood control projects, giving the public direct access to monitor government-funded infrastructure amid ongoing probes into questionable contracts. The initiative forms part of Project DIME (Digital Information for Monitoring and Evaluation), a platform that uses satellites, drones, and geotagging to track the progress of big-ticket projects, which was officially launched on Wednesday. According to Philippines News Agency, the platform also allows citizens to post feedback through their Google or social media accounts. Budget Secretary Amenah Pangandaman emphasized President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s directive during the launch at the Tripa de Gallina Pumping Station in Pasay City, stating, 'Kabilin-bilinan po ng ating Pangulong Bongbong Marcos na kung ano po ang pinopondohan natin, let's make sure po na makararating sa ating mga kababayan sa lalong madaling panahon.' The rollout of the flood control component come s as President Marcos mounts a sweeping investigation into anomalous flood control projects. Project DIME was first introduced in 2018 but was revived under Executive Order 31 signed in 2023, which institutionalized the Philippine Open Government Partnership to promote transparency and accountability.
