Palace: Ngu no longer special envoy to China as term expired

Maynard Ngu is no longer President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s special envoy to China, as his appointment expired last August, according to Palace Press Officer Claire Castro.

Ngu, the chief executive officer of Cherry Mobile, was appointed by Marcos in 2023 to represent the Philippines in matters of trade, investment, and tourism with China.

The announcement comes amidst recent allegations from a former DPWH undersecretary who claimed to have delivered payoffs intended for Senator Chiz Escudero through Ngu.
