Marcos' Cabinet Resignations: Senators Divided on President's Motives

President Bongbong Marcos's call for cabinet courtesy resignations has sparked diverse reactions among Philippine senators. Some, like Senator Win Gatchalian, view it as a necessary step to address public concerns and improve government performance. "This should prompt them to reflect on their own performance," Gatchalian stated. However, others express caution, suggesting that the move could be politically motivated. Former Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque voiced concern that it might be a mere distraction from more significant issues. "It's just politics," Roque commented. The situation highlights the ongoing political dynamics in the Philippines and the ongoing debate about government accountability.
