The Philippines, represented by Commission on Audit (COA) Director Adela Dondonilla, will serve as the chairperson of the 63rd Session of the United Nations (UN) Committee for Programme and Coordination (CPC), the main subsidiary organ of the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and the General Assembly for planning, programming, and coordination in the UN.
The COA, citing reports from Ambassador Antonio M. Lagdameo—the Permanent Representative of the Philippines to the UN in New York—said the Philippines was elected by acclamation as chairperson of the CPC during the Committee’s Organizational Session.
“The Philippines’ chairmanship is a testament to the country’s ability in taking part in various leadership roles of the organization and its relatable bodies,” the COA also quoted Lagdameo as saying. Dondonilla, COA said, is a veteran member of the commission's elite pool of United Nations auditors and is the current director of COA’s Cluster 1, Corporate Government Sector handling banking and credits.
