Screengrab from RTVM
Hey, here’s some fresh scoop from Malacañang! When President Bongbong Marcos (PBBM) asked all his Cabinet members to resign—yes, a full house clearing move—many wondered who would actually stay on. Well, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin just spilled the beans on who’s sticking around.
So, here are the Cabinet bigwigs who will keep their seats despite the mass resignation request:
• DTI Secretary Cristina Roque — holding the fort on trade and industry
• DOF Secretary Ralph Recto — managing the country’s finances
• DEPDev Secretary Arsenio Balisacan Jr. — steering development planning
• DBM Secretary Amenah Pangandaman — in charge of the budget
• Special Assistant to the President for Investment & Economic Affairs Frederick Go — keeping investment and economic affairs on track
It seems the President wants to maintain some stability amid the reshuffle, and these folks are key players in the government’s economic team. What do you think? Are these the right people to keep pushing the agenda?
