When asked by Senate Minority Leader Vicente Sotto III when they earned their first billion, Discaya replied, "We have been in the construction business for 23 years so I would presume in 23 years we can earn that [amount]”.
Senate President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Estrada asked Discaya if they have a "point person" or someone from the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) who gives them a list of projects which they can bid.
"Wala po ako knowledge (I don't have any knowledge). I don't know anyone [from the DPWH]," Discaya said.
