Manila: Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin denied Sunday that he is set to resign or be replaced. ‘Not true until it actually happens. I don’t know how the speculation started,’ Bersamin told reporters when asked about circulating talks on a supposed shake-up in Malaca±ang.
According to Philippines News Agency, the Executive Secretary, who heads the day-to-day operations of the Office of the President, has been a subject of resignation talks since issues on illegal infrastructure and flood-control projects surfaced. Bersamin stressed he remains focused on his duties.
Malaca±ang has not issued any official statement on the matter.
