President Marcos has appointed another commissioner to the Presidential Commission on Good Governance (PCGG), an agency mandated to go after the Marcos family's ill-gotten wealth.
Marcos named lawyer Elihu Ybañez as PCGG commissioner.
He was among the new Marcos appointees announced by Malacañang on Thursday, March 14.
The PCGG was created in February 1986 after the EDSA People Power Revolution with a mandate to recover the ill-gotten wealth accumulated by former president Ferdinand E. Marcos, his immediate family, his relatives, subordinates, and close associates.
Last month, the President also named lawyer Rogelio Quevedo as PCGG commissioner.
Meanwhile, Marcos also appointed several officials to various government agencies.
He designated Benjamin Albarece as assistant secretary at the Department of Agriculture (DA), Eliseo D.C. Cruz as assistant secretary at the Department of Justice (DOJ), and Mario Fetalino Jr. as assistant secretary at the Presidential Communications Office (PCO).
Other appointees were: Ma. Carissa Coscolluela as acting member of the Board of Trustees of the Cultural Center of the Philippines, Manjit Tobias Reandi as member of the Board of Directors of the Bases Conversion and Development Authority, Rosalio Aragon Jr. as member representing the Workers Sector of the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board under the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), and Josefina Annabel Bañaga and Wilma Galvante as members of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
The President also named new directors in the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR), Department of Health (DOH), Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), National Commission on Indigenous People, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), and Commission on Higher Education (CHED).
He also designated Allen Dalangin, Inocencio Rosario Jr., and Edgar Ybañez as rear admirals of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG).
