MANILA, Philippines — Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon said he would step down from his post following Pres. Marcos’ directive urging all cabinet secretaries to tender courtesy resignations.

Dizon, who was just appointed last February, said this in a press briefing held on Thursday.

“I will submit my courtesy resignation. I will sign it after this,” Dizon said.

Pres. Marcos ordered the courtesy resignations to “realign the government with people’s expectations,” according to a statement released by the Presidential Communications Office this morning.
