Zambales execs inspect infra projects

Zambales Governor Hermogenes E. Ebdane Jr. led an inspection of the P500-million Zambales Sports Complex Track and Football Stadium this week, vowing to complete the project despite the recent termination of its contractor.

The provincial government moved to cancel the contract with St. Gerrard Construction Gen. Contractor & Development Corp. after the Philippine Contractors Accreditation Board revoked the firm’s license on 2 September.

According to Provincial Engineering Office consultant Domingo Mariano, the firm is among those blacklisted by the national government.

The facility, which is designed to rival the New Clark City Stadium, is currently 46.85 percent complete. Construction on the 34,000-square-meter site began in December 2024 and is designed to accommodate 20,000 spectators.
