Marcos Jr. administration’s “Build Better More” infrastructure initiative.

In his message during the celebration, DPWH Secretary Manuel M. Bonoan emphasized that the occasion was not merely a commemoration of the agency’s 127 years of existence, but a celebration of its progress, purpose, and the people behind its achievements.
