The current stalemate between the Ombudsman and the Aquino administration provides a gauge on the confidence of the new administration in the steps it is taking. Noynoy’s administration started off on the wrong foot and his Palace minions are earning a reputation of shoot first and think later, primarily on the issuance of Memorandum Circular No. 1, which Malacañang revised after being released when it nearly triggered chaos in the bureaucracy due to the mass layoffs that could have resulted from the order. Incidentally such first impression is carried to the end of the administration as President Arroyo started out her presidency in 2001 with a lie by issuing her first proclamation order barring her relatives from entering the government. It didn’t take weeks for her to campaign for her favorite son, Juan Miguel “Mikey” Arroyo, for the position of Pampanga vice governor. At the end, she was appointing not only relatives but her personal manicurist and gardener into government posts. In much the same way, Noynoy has been tapping his relatives for government posts, but saying that these are relatives that do not fall under the banned degree of consanguinity.
