๐๐ฅ๐๐๐๐๐ก๐: Substandard Safety
It is common knowledge that infrastructures are built to be strong and not to put lives at risk. Amidst the controversy regarding the flood control project, a news image showing two Arayat Hardware as a source of substandard materials revealed how such neglection can collapse the foundation of projects meant to save lives. This raises an important question: Are we not a priority when it is their basic responsibility to ensure our safety?
The decision to investigate the hardware store shows how quality manipulation and the initiative to proceed with a weak project can affect not only the people but also reflect our countryโs ongoing practice of corruption. People place their trust when crossing bridges, yet the absence of reliability in this controversy calls us to speak up and fight for what is right.
The owners, on their part, claim they were unaware they were selling substandard materials, saying they were deceived by their supplier. Meanwhile, the publicโs collective opinion emphasized the approach of everyone's accountability among the people involved, and ensure that materials used carries good quality.
As the Philippines continues to face uncontrollable natural calamities, the massive destruction caused by substandard structures must serve as an eye-opener.
