(Eagle News)–President Rodrigo Duterte has removed three high-ranking Department of Social Welfare and Development officials from their posts.
Removed were Undersecretary for Promotive Operations and Programs Group Maria Lourdes Turalde-Jarabe, Undersecretary for Protective Operations and Programs Group Mae Ancheta-Templa, and Undersecretary for Disaster Response Management Group Hope Hervilla, Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea said.
“We expect the new secretary to bring his own team to provide better services to the public,” Medialdea said.
Former Armed Forces of the Philippines Chief Rolando Bautista took over the helm of the DSWD last month following his retirement from the military.
