Erwin Tulfo to Resign as DSWD Secretary If Fails to Be Effective

ERWIN TULFO – The incoming secretary of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) promised to resign if he fails to be effective.

The veteran journalist recently stated that if he is not effective as secretary of the DSWD, he will leave. According to his remark, he pushes himself to ensure that support or relief would arrive in 24 hours or less, especially in disaster-stricken areas.

He went on to say that if the department fails to do so and the bureaucracy grows, there would be greater corruption. As a result, he’ll inform the president, Mr. President, that he’s ineffective and should be replaced.

“Ang sabi ko nga ho eh, I challenge myself na in 24 hours bababa’t bababa, 24 hours or less darating ‘yung ayuda mo or mga relief na ‘yan lalo na pag sa mga calamity-stricken areas ay gagawin ho natin,” Tulfo said in a televised interview on Wednesday.

“‘Pag hindi ho natin nagawa ‘yan sir, at lalong sumama pa ang bureaukrasya…ang red tape, lalong nagkaroon ng korapsyon pa, eh ako na ho mismo sir magsasabi sa pangulo, Mr. President palitan niyo na ho ako kasi ineffective ho ako,” he added.

He stated that if his work at DSWD fails, he is prepared to return to civilian life. “Kung hindi naman ho kaya, bakit ho natin pilitin?” ” he said. Tulfo further stated that he will not attack any acclaimed colleague in President-elect Ferdinand Marcos, Jr.’s Cabinet.

“May mga ahensya po kasi Sir na in charge ho dyan like meron po tayong Ombudsman, and then pagdating po sa mga corruption, sa mga pera meron po tayong Commission on Audit. So nakakahiya naman Sir kung sabihan ko ‘yung secretary ng kabilang department like ‘Hoy, may balita sa ’yo na may problema ka, etc. etc.’”

Tulfo made headlines earlier this year when he criticized DSWD Secretary Rolando Bautista after the latter declined his offer to interview him on his television show.
