After lamps, Ombudsman probes P90-M traffic equipment
Overpriced street lamps may not be the only controversial expenses in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) summit in Cebu last January. After finding basis to charge 19 officials for the lamppost mess, the Ombudsman is setting its sights on alleged anomalies in traffic surveillance equipment. Sun-Star Cebu (www.sunstar.com.ph) reported Sunday that the Ombudsman is now looking into alleged anomalies in the procurement of some P90 million worth of traffic surveillance equipment, the installation of lamps in a private beach resort and the expenses incurred by the Lapu-Lapu city government. It is also looking into possible anomalies in the P155 million used in asphalting 15 short Cebu City road segments. Earlier, the Ombudsman asked for the immediate preventive suspension of all the public officials involved in the lamps mess.
Lamps relishing tight title tussle
LONDON: Chelsea might be struggling to hang on to Manchester Uniteds coat-tails in the final stages of the season, but Frank Lampard insists he is relishing the closest Premiership title battle in years. Even if it ultimately means he misses out on a third consecutive championship medal, the Blues England midfielder believes the competition offered by a revitalised United is a good thing for the English game. United will entertain Middlesbrough today looking to extend their lead over their London rivals to six points ahead of Chelseas trip to Newcastle tomorrow. With only five matches left for each of the top two, a single slip-up by either side could prove decisive and Lampard is happy to be at the heart of the nerve-shredding battle. .
