“The pictures show how some people treat the government like their private property,” Sotto added.

Sotto said one of the difficulties his team faced during the transition was the poor inventory of the city’s government supplies.

Last month, Sotto ordered the inventory of the city’s government supplies after the Commission on Audit (COA) flagged P1.464 billion worth of materials unaccounted for in its 2018 annual audit report./TSB
