President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said Thursday he would only appoint a Health Secretary if the country’s situation had already returned to normal in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis.
On the sidelines of the Philippine Business Conference at the Manila Hotel, Marcos was asked when he planned to appoint a Department of Health secretary amid the continuing threat of the pandemic. The President also told reporters that problems within the Department of Agriculture are so difficult that “it will take a president to change and turn it around.”
Meanwhile, in a transmittal letter to Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo, the President appointed as CA associate justices Regional Trial Court Judges Selma Palacio Alaras and Wilhelmina B. Jorge Wagan. The three new members of the appellate courts took their oaths of office before Chief Justice Gesmundo late Wednesday afternoon, Oct 19.
