Loyzaga 'always out' of Phl, now out of cabinet
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has accepted the courtesy resignation of Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Secretary Maria Antonia Yulo Loyzaga.
Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin stated that Loyzaga's departure was partly due to perceptions of her frequent travels abroad, though no corruption issues were involved.
Bersamin mentioned that Loyzaga will be taking a break for now and may be given another Cabinet position or a different responsibility at a later time.
Energy Secretary Raphael Lotilla has been appointed as the new DENR Secretary, replacing Loyzaga.
President Marcos had previously asked all Cabinet secretaries to submit their courtesy resignations to allow for government realignment and evaluation.
