Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Undersecretary Rico Puno can rest easy. He isn’t likely to lose his job in the Aquino administration.
All indications point to Noynoy Aquino retaining Puno or at the least, appoint him to another position.
In New York with Manila reporters, Noynoy stated that it is just “normal” for Puno to consider the option of resigning from his position, especially since his honor is at stake, but this “does not necessarily translate to his becoming a burden” to Noynoy and his administration.
Translation: Puno is no burden to Noynoy, ergo, he is to be retained.
Also, Noynoy dismisses the bishop’s testimony on the involvement of Puno in jueteng, with Noynoy calling retired Archbishop Oscar Cruz “a very opinionated person.”
