Binay daughter blames China for Makati Bldg price
MANILA - What does China have to do with the alleged overpricing of the P2.2 billion Makati City Hall Building 2 project?
According to Makati Congresswoman Abigail Binay, the high price of construction for the building was brought on by an increase in steel prices due to a construction boom in China in time for the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
"You also have to remember the time it was built. Yun yung time na there was so much high demand on steel because China was buying all the steel because they were building for the Beijing Olympics," she told ANC's Headstart.
The Binays have come under fire over the building projects, which critics said could have been the source of massive kickbacks.
Vice-President Jejomar Binay, Makati Mayor Junjun Binay and other Makati officials are facing a plunder complaint over the alleged overpricing of the P2.2 billion building.
Former Makati Vice-Mayor Ernesto Mercado earlier revealed that he pocketed kickbacks during Phases 1 and 2 of the construction of the building, and said the current vice-president also got kickbacks when he was still mayor of Makati.
For her part, the Makati congresswoman said comparing the price of construction of Makati City Hall building 2 to other luxury condominiums is not an "apples-to-apples" comparison.
She noted that the building project underwent 10 COA audits per phase including contract reviews and technical review.
"Yung technical audit ay galing sa central office...Hindi yan galing sa resident COA," she said.
She added: "I think you have to give credit naman dun sa ating mga COA auditors that they did their job."
In the interview, Binay admitted that the issue with the alleged overpricing is the only thing that is bothering her other than being "unfriended" on Facebook by Taguig Mayor Lani Cayetano.
"Other nang na-unfriend ako, yun na lang," she told Headstart host Karen Davila.

katol pa nancy. bagay tong mga binay na to sa gag show
MANILA, Philippines – How would one describe world-class?
Senator Nancy Binay on Monday found a way of dealing with criticisms that the pricey Makati City Hall 2 that her father Jejomar built does not merit to be called world-class.
“Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder,” Nancy Binay said.
It was Nancy’s brother, Makati City Mayor Jejomar Erwin “Junjun” Binay, who described the building “world-class” during last week’s hearing at the Senate amid allegations that it was grossly overpriced.
“Siguro that’s their opinion, ‘di ba? ‘Di ba, parang beauty din yan eh… It’s in the eyes of the beholder,” the senator said in jest in an interview on Monday.
“Siguro ganoon din yun sa building, ‘di ba? Para sa kanila, hindi ganoon kagandahan pero sa amin maganda na yan. Lalo na kapag nakapag-ikot ka buong sa Pilipinas. I don’t think may makikita kayong ibang LGU building na ganoon ang itsura,” she said.
The Senate blue ribbon committee investigating the issue conducted an ocular inspection of the building early Monday morning.
The committee is set to resume its hearing on Thursday.

Just like saying , para sa noggy family mura lang yung 2.7B while everyone is saying overprice yan. Moronic reasoning.
The more these lady binays talk the more it show something is really wrong in the building. It has become a family battle against the world, likely meron din silang share of the pie kaya they are in the defensive as well. Why can't they not answer in accounting aspect since pricing ang issue, hindi yung puro sila pamumulitika lang.
Noggy your doomed, here comes MDS:cheer3:Last edited by macsd; September 2nd, 2014 at 10:17 AM.
