MANILA – The Philippines’ new defense chief Carlito Galvez Jr. requested senior members of the Department of National Defense (DND) to “stay in place” as he takes the helm of the agency rocked by a sudden leadership change.
In a statement released Wednesday, January 11, DND Spokesperson Arsenio Andolong said Galvez gave the directive during a briefing on Tuesday, January 10, at Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City. The meeting tackled how the agency would transition between Galvez and his predecessor, former defense officer-in-charge Jose Faustino Jr.
