BIZ BUZZ: Who’s in; who’s out?
Meanwhile, Aguda has not axed any of the incumbent secretaries, assistant secretaries and directors at the DICT. While he asked all of them to submit courtesy resignations, no action has been taken on any.
Two executives, however, have already opted to return to the private sector, Aguda said.
One of them is Jeffrey Ian Dy, former undersecretary for “infostructure” management, cybersecurity and upskilling.
The other is Alexander Ramos, who headed the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center, an attached agency of the DICT.
Who else will Aguda bring to the fold?
“They are currently undergoing a vetting process,” Aguda said. “I need a very strong economist. I need a very strong policy and legal person.”
