Malacañang denied the Discayas’ claim that the unfinished Philippine Film Heritage Building in Manila is not part of their contract, calling their statement “wrong information.”
The building, valued at nearly P108 million and contracted to Great Pacific Builders and Gen. Contractor Inc.—owned by Sarah Discaya—remains incomplete past the original September 4 deadline.
Palace press officer Claire Castro highlighted several construction issues, including leaks, unfinished insulation, and poor elevator quality, while also raising concerns about possible collusion with public officials.
The Discayas insisted that the first phase was completed in December 2024, but Malacañang pointed out that the contract only started in January 2025, making that impossible.
Great Pacific Builders is among nine Discaya-owned firms whose licenses have been revoked by the Philippine Contractors Accreditation Board amid ongoing investigations.
