MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— President Rodrigo R. Duterte warned Tuesday that he would consider placing officials in unruly government agencies under the Office of the President (OP) to better monitor their functions.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those offices na\u00a0hindi talaga ma-control<\/em>\u00a0(can\u2019t be controlled) I will place you under the Office of the President,\u201d Duterte said in his speech at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 2 upon his arrival from his three-day state visit to South Korea.<\/p>\n

\u201cAko na mismo ang kaharap mo araw-araw<\/em>\u00a0(I will be the one you\u2019ll have to face every day),\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Duterte is known for firing government officials involved in even \u201ca whiff of corruption” and has promised to lead an administration that is “corruption-free.”<\/p>\n

He made this remark stressing that he would make \u201cradical changes\u201d in terms of public order and security in the following days.<\/p>\n

\u201cNi-warning ko lang kayong mga kriminal, lahat na. Nasa gobyerno, sa labas<\/em>\u00a0(I have warned you criminals, everyone — in the government, and outside). I will make radical changes in the days to come,\u201d Duterte said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thank God that binigyan ako ng panahon mag-silbi sa bayan ko<\/em>\u00a0(I thank God he gave me time to serve my country) so that there will be changes in the coming days including public order and security. There are simply too many crimes and too many — claiming to be this and that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The President made special mention of \u201cHuman Rights\u201d, although it was not clear if he was referring to the agency or groups, and asked them to behave.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I’ve been warning all.\u00a0Lahat<\/em>\u00a0(All). I’m warning all including the Human Rights, it’s either we behave or we will have a serious problem again,\u201d Duterte said.<\/p>\n

He did not explain how he would carry out the radical changes but mentioned how he saw no difference between martial law and a declaration of national emergency.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, somehow, even with this meager emergency power, I will use it to the hilt (and) put things in order,\u201d Duterte said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
