CABINET MEMBERS, including state economic managers, submitted their courtesy resignations on Thursday as part of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.’s “bold reset” of the government to better meet the needs of Filipinos.
The move comes following the poor performance of administration-backed senatorial candidates in the May 12 midterm elections, and amid global uncertainties due to trade concerns that could threaten the Philippine economy.
The Presidential Communications Office (PCO) said the request for resignations will give Mr. Marcos “elbow room to evaluate the performance of each department and determine who will continue to serve in line with his administration’s recalibrated priorities.”
