“The first order I will put out is the courtesy resignations, top to bottom — Usecs (undersecretaries), Asecs (assistant secretaries), division heads, regional directors, down to district engineers,” Dizon said in Filipino at a press conference in Malacañang on Monday.
“The order of the President is to clean house, to cleanse the agency… a clean sweep, that is the order of the President,” he added.
