MANILA, Philippines – “Change is coming.”
This was president-elect Rodrigo Duterte’s winning campaign slogan. After getting a decisive mandate from millions of Filipino voters in the 2016 elections, Duterte has started to form his administration.
His transition committee earlier suggested that the incoming Cabinet will be patterned after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s gender-balanced, youthful team.
So far, does Duterte’s choice of Cabinet members reflect the Canadian model that has been praised around the world? Are the nominees the best ones to help him deliver on his promise of change?
