MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Monday said the resignation of Manuel Bonoan as public works secretary was mainly due to “command responsibility.”
Speaking at the sidelines of the Turismo Asenso Loan Program awarding ceremony in Pasay City, Marcos said that Bonoan felt the need to step down because issues surrounding the government’s flood control projects “happened under his watch.”, This news data comes from:http://www.gyglfs.com
“So, under the principle of command responsibility, he felt that he should leave his post,” he told reporters.
Transportation Secretary Vivencio “Vince” Dizon replaced Bonoan.
