Kudos, Mr. President
PRESIDENT Duterte has sent a strong message against corruption when he sacked Interior Secretary Ismael D. Sueno during a Cabinet meeting on Monday. Pundits see the dismissal as a warning to members of the Cabinet that the Chief Executive will not countenance any questionable decisions they make, and he would fire high-ranking officials caught in allegations of corruption. Most everyone knows that Sueno was instrumental in convincing Duterte to run for president. But this did not stop the President from pursuing his drive for a clean and trustworthy government, even at the expense of close friends.
