Malacañang Announces More New Appointees
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Before the Yellowtards could even cry “Tama na, sobra na,” Malacañang today announced additional appointees under the Duterte administration.
Today’s announcement follows yesterday’s awe-inspiring appointment of Duterte supporter and social media blogger Mocha Uson as Assistant Secretary of the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO).
The new set of appointees represents both sides of the aisle — the Yellows and Dutertards. “It shows the president’s commitment to serve all Filipinos, not just his supporters,” the announcement said.
The new appointees are:
- Thinking Pinoy, Assistant Commissioner of the National Telecommunications Commission, an attached agency of the Department of Information and Communications Technology responsible for the supervision, adjudication and control over all telecommunications services throughout the country.
- Sass Rogando Sasot, Philippine Ambassador to The Netherlands, based in The Hague
- Agot Isidro, to replace the position vacated by Mocha Uson at the Movie and Television Ratings and Classification Board (MTRCB)
- Loida Nicolas-Lewis, new Philippine Ambassador to the United States
- Atty. Jesus Falcis, Assistant Solicitor General
The new appointments come a year after Duterte won in the May Philippine presidential elections.
Actress Agot Isidro Wants Mocha Uson’s Position At MTRCB
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The big news yesterday was the appointment of Duterte supporter and blogger Mocha Uson as Assistant Secretary of the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO). Most Duterte supporters were elated over the appointment while the Yellowtards were fuming.
In announcing Uson’s appointment, Malacañang said that by accepting the new position, Uson is deemed to have resigned her position as member of the Movie and Television Ratings and Classification Board (MTRCB), creating a vacancy in the self-censorship body.
Upon learning of the new PCOO appointment, actress Agot Isidro sent a letter to Malacañang expressing her desire to be appointed to replace Uson on the MTRCB.
It will be recalled that Isidro took to her social media account to label Duterte a “psychopath,” to which the president responded that the actress had the constitutional right to free speech.
In her letter to Malacañang, Isidro said that she is well qualified for the position and that she will make for an unbiased member of the MTRCB.
