He did not elaborate.
Ruiz previously said there was nothing personal in asking for the courtesy resignation of the appointees.''Usually ganoon naman talaga considering all presidential appointees here di ba... para lang kumbaga siyempre free hand sa pagpili ng ating mga kasama... Mahirap din po kasi siyempre dapat pagkakatiwalaan mo kasi kung di mo kasama, di mo naman sila kakilala, of course, as secretary dapat dalhin mo rin 'yung sarili mong tao,'' Ruiz said in an ambush interview on Monday.
