“An independent study conducted by the University of the Philippines – this were done by scientists with no connection to the project, no stake in the project – they found that Monterazzas did not cause or worsen the flooding,” pahayag ni Slater Young.

Matapos ang ilang buwan mula nang manalasa ang Super Typhoon “Tino,” naglabas na ng pahayag ang celebrity engineer na si Slater Young kaugnay ng mga isyu sa Monterrazas de Cebu project.

Sa isang Facebook video nitong Linggo, Abril 19, binigyang-diin ni Young ang resulta ng pagsusuri mula sa University of the Philippines Diliman College of Science Institute of Environmental Science and Meteorology na inilabas noong Marso 2026, kung saan diumano’y ang matinding buhos ng ulan mula sa bagyo ang itinuturong pangunahing dahilan ng pagbaha sa lugar.

“What caused it was the sheer volume of rain. Typhoon Tino dumped over a month’s worth of rainfall on Cebu in one single day. And that amount of water would have flooded those areas regardless of what was or was not built,” saad ni Young.

“But what we are here to say is this: Cebu deserves real solutions, and real solutions can only come from correctly identifying the real cause. That is work that is ongoing, and Monterrazas is committed to being a part of it,” dagdag ng celebrity engineer.
