This appears to be a common problem in the country.
“Former President and currrent Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada has asked city hall officials and employees who refuse to support his reform programs because of their loyalty to his predecessor, former Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim, to quit their jobs,” reports Jose Rodel Clapano in The Philippine Star.
In a speech delivered at the city hall’s flag-raising ceremony on Mon, Jan 26, Estrada said, “If there are people here who could not support me as their duly elected mayor or who do not want to help me with my programs, I am now prepared to accept your resignation.”
He likewise added: “I ask for your full cooperation, not your treachery. If you cannot give me that, then we must part ways and allow us to do our job instead of you staying here to undermine our efforts.”
