Noynoy says VP seeking another gov’t post, gives Binay 5 choices
07/15/2010 Vice President Jejomar Binay has to speak now or forever hold his peace as President Aquino disclosed to reporters that he still has five Cabinet rooms for Binay to take in view of reports that he is allegedly reconsidering his previous decision not to take any position in the Aquino Cabinet. According to the President, somebody informed him that Binay is now ready to get a Cabinet post. Aquino failed to enumerate which departments he is offering Binay but he mentioned the urgency of having someone take care of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA), especially since the rainy season is in full swing. “I gave him (Binay) five choices. He can choose anything from these. Someone went to ask him (and he said) he is reconsidering. But he has to decide soon (because) I’m already running out (of positions) to offer him. I really need someone (to help me), like in the MMDA which takes care of the flooding,” Aquino said when asked by reporters at a dinner in the Palace on Tuesday evening.
