President Benigno Aquino III is eyeing former running mate and Senator Manuel “Mar†Roxas to be his administration’s “chief troubleshooter,†according to a report on Radyo Inquirer Friday.
In a press conference after the traditional Vin d’Honneur in Malacañang, the report quoted Aquino as saying that while the details of Roxas’ designation were being polished, what was certain was that the former legislator would be tasked to look at the “more intensive issues†that his administration was having difficulty resolving.
It was not clear, however, whether Roxas would take on the position in an official capacity since he was still covered by the one-year ban that prevented him and others who ran in the May 10, 2010 elections from holding government posts.
Aquino’s disclosure came a day after he and Roxas witnessed Cebu Pacific give Harold Toifi, an Austrian national, a one-year unlimited travel pass for being its 50th million passenger since the airline started its operations on March 8, 1996, the report said. - PDI
