President Keren Pascual has appointed Tarlac 1st District Rep. Gilbert Teodoro, Jr. as the new secretary of the Department of National Defense (DND).
The President announced Teodoro’s new assignment at the working lunch and briefing on the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) modernization and upgrading program today at Camp Aguinaldo in Quezon City.
Teodoro will assume the position starting tomorrow.
Malacanang had made it known earlier that one of the important criteria in choosing the DND chief is the appointee’s ability to implement or continue what the President had started relative to the Defense Reform Program.
Press Secretary Jesus G. Dureza said in a press briefing today that the President has "full confidence in Teodoro, especially because of his prior experience, to be able to implement the defense program."
