President Marcos is ready to relinquish his concurrent post as chief of the Department of Agriculture and appoint a full-time secretary as soon as he has sorted out the mess that is now causing shortfall in basic food supply like sugar and onions.
“When this is fixed, when we have the systems in place, yes, yes,” he told journalists on Sunday aboard Philippine Airlines 001 en route to Switzerland to attend the World Economic Forum meetings.
Mr. Marcos ordered reforms in the bureaucracy to curb smuggling, lower logistics costs and ensure the ease of doing business.
