MANILA — Newly appointed Information and Communications Technology (DICT) Secretary Henry Aguda has ordered all undersecretaries, assistant secretaries, and agency directors to submit their resignations, signaling a sweeping overhaul of the department.

The directive, issued immediately after Aguda assumed office, aims to facilitate a department-wide reorganization. It remains uncertain if all affected officials will comply or if some will stay on during the transition.

Aguda’s move follows the common practice of incoming department heads reshaping leadership to align with their vision.
