MANILA, August 22, 2008—The World Bank today announced that it has debarred the Korean
firm Dongsung Construction Co. Ltd. (Dongsung) for fraudulent and corrupt practices in
relation to a Bank-financed road project in the Philippines.
The first phase of the project, known as NRIMPI, closed in March 2007.
Dongsung did not contest accusations brought against the firm in the Bank’s administrative
sanctions proceedings. Under the terms of its debarment, Dongsung cannot be awarded
a Bank-financed contract in any country during the next four years.
The debarment is a result of an investigation conducted by the World Bank’s Integrity Vice
Presidency (INT), which is responsible for investigating allegations of fraud and corruption
in Bank-financed projects. NRIMPI was designed to assist the Philippine government in the
upgrading of the roads network and was partially financed by a $150 million loan from the
World Bank. It aimed not just to build roads, but also to address weaknesses in project
management, so that future roads projects would deliver more benefit at lower cost.
Through an in-depth quantitative and qualitative analysis of the procurement process that
the firm participated in as well as numerous interviews, investigators uncovered evidence
of Dongsung’s involvement in widespread bid-rigging.
Mr. Bert Hofman, World Bank Country Director for Philippines, said, “Rapid action against
colluding companies demonstrates that efforts to combat corruption are working and send
s a strong signal across the private sector. Building more and better roads to remote areas
is critical for development in the Philippines. But it is also critical to take action against corruption.
NRIMP is now in its second phase and includes stringent anti-corruption mechanisms,
such as the use of an independent procurement evaluator and independent oversight
by civil society, in part because of what the INT investigation of NRIMPI revealed.”
The World Bank revised its sanctions procedures in 2006 to allow the Bank to deal with
fraud and corruption cases more efficiently. At the first tier of the two-tier sanctioning
process, the Evaluation and Suspension Officer reviews the case brought by INT against
a respondent. The Bank Evaluation Officer determines whether or not there is sufficient
evidence to support the accusations against the respondent and recommends
an appropriate sanction. Under the sanctions procedures, when a respondent like Dongsung
chooses not to contest the accusations against it within 90 days, the Sanctions Board
will then impose the recommended sanction.
Mr. Leonard McCarthy, World Bank Integrity Vice President, said, “Effective development
requires all of us to be vigilant in detecting fraud and corruption. Those people who bring
allegations to INT deserve special commendation for assisting the Bank in seriously
addressing corruption. For our part, INT will continue increasing its outreach efforts
so as to contribute to an environment that encourages reporting.”
