BCDA News

The state-owned Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) filed today before the Department of Justice (DOJ)  52 counts of malversation against the Board of Directors and officials of Camp John Hay Development Corporation (CJHDevCo) and its subsidiary, Camp John Hay Hotel Corporation (CJH Hotels), for the latter’s refusal to return 26 BCDA-owned hotel units located in Camp John Hay Manor and Camp John Hay Suites, Baguio City, as well as to give BCDA an accounting of the revenues earned by CJHDevCo and CJH Hotels from the operations of the 26 rooms.

The 22-page complaint stated that the CJHDevCo directors and officers, even after the lawful demand of  the BCDA, refused to return the public properties  to the government. These properties are 16 units of the CJH Manor hotel and 10 units of  the CJH Suites Hotel which have a total value of P121 Million.

The complaint further stated that CJHDevCo continues to earn from these units but refused to provide the liquidation of public funds—revenues that it earned from the use and lease of the 26 units.
