President Noynoy Aquino cabinet list

President Noynoy Aquino on the cover of TIME

President-elect Noynoy Aquino held a press conference a while ago to reveal the names of those who will be occupying cabinet posts under his regime. Though I would like to see some other names on that roster of cabinet members, I am still happy with his choices.

First, I would like to congratulate UP Law alumnus Atty. Eduardo De Mesa for being appointed as Presidential Legal Counsel. I personally know Atty De Mesa and I am sure that he will do a great job as the president’s counsel.

Likewise, I would like to extend warmest greetings to another UP Law alumnus, Atty. Virgilio “Gil” delos Reyes for being appointed as Agrarian Reform Secretary. I have met Atty. Gil in several instances and was impressed by his ideas on agrarian reform. Having served as an Undersecretary for Legal at DAR, I know he would bring wonders to DAR.

Other cabinet members who will serve under President Aquino are:

Executive Secretary – Atty. Paquito Ochoa

Presidential spokesperson-   Edwin Lacierda

Presidential Adviser on peace process – Ging Deles

Presidential Management Staff – Julia Abad

Dept. of Budget  – Butch Abad

DND – Voltaire Gazmin
