Ramos says there’s ‘failure of organization in entire Duterte gov’t’


Former President Fidel Ramos on Friday said there is “failure of organization” in the government of President Rodrigo Duterte.

Ramos said this when asked by reporters if failure of intelligence was to blame for the attacks by ISIS-inspired Maute group in Marawi City.

“Hindi natin masisiguro yan [failure of intel] sa ngayon but I know there is a certain failure of organization in the entire government right now,” Ramos said.

He criticized why the National Peace and Order Council (NPOC) has yet to be “activated.”

“I’ve been suggesting this as unsolicited advice but also during the very rare one on one talks I’ve had with the President,” Ramos said.

A post from state-run Presidential Broadcast Staff Radio-Television Malacanang (RTVM) reported that Duterte has presided over the NPOC meeting and joint AFP-PNP command conference on March 31, 2017. — RSJ, GMA News
