Dispatch from Crame No. 584:
Sen. Leila M. de Lima's Statement calling Mr. Duterte to fire BuCor Director General Nicanor Faeldon

9/1/19

Yan ang problema kapag nire-recycle lang ang mga tiwaling opisyal ng gobyerno.

The President, in invariably dramatic fashion, ceaselessly rants about corruption in government. But who's the appointing authority? Since the Marcos era, corruption has never been so pervasive as we see it now.

BuCor Director-General Nicanor Faeldon is just one of several Duterte appointees who are seemingly untouchables inspite of the more than a whiff of corruption associated with them. I need not name the others.

Why can't Mr. Duterte get rid of these incorrigible subalterns of his? Are they that indispensible? For what ends? Anong hawak nila sa kanya? ###
