President Rodrigo Duterte have always been known as the President who walks the talk and makes good on threats and promises.
During his press conference on Sunday, he have warned corrupt officials and employees from the Land Transportation Office (LTO) and the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) that he will be vacating their positions on Monday.
"I would like to issue a warning that on Monday... I will declare all your positions, all throughout the country vacant. I still hear corruption," he said. "Lahat, even numbering thousands, consider yourself in the crucible of the truth about corruption."
Although he warned them to be ready to be assigned in war zone areas, reports from Philitizen claims that more than a thousand officials have already been removed due to complaints of incessant corruption in the said government agencies. There have been no reports yet as to whether this is true and effective today however we can expect that the President truly aims to rid the government of corrupt officials.
"I would like to issue a warning that on Monday... I will declare all your positions, all throughout the country vacant. I still hear corruption," he said. "Lahat, even numbering thousands, consider yourself in the crucible of the truth about corruption."
