Roger Mercado during a virtual hearing of Finance Subcommittee A on the proposed P686 billion budget of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Tuesday, October 19, 2021. “I just wish him all the best as he transitions from being a legislator to the chief implementer of our Build, Build, Build projects. I wish him all the best. I pray for his success together with the rest of the DPWH family,” Tolentino said.
