The Freeman
|May 23, 2025
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Thursday asked his entire Cabinet to hand in their courtesy resignations following a disappointing showing in the recently concluded elections.
-
The midterm polls were seen as a referendum for how people perceive an administration’s performance. With only six out of 11 of Marcos’ picks winning, the president has deemed it necessary for a job review.
“It’s time to realign government with the people’s expectations,” Marcos said in a May 22 statement.
