Duterte appointees head to Davao
May 31, 2016

Incoming Cabinet appointees arrive at an office of the Department of Public Works and Highways in Davao to meet with President-elect Rodrigo Duterte. The DPWH office has been tagged as a presidential guest house. Tight security has been reported at the compound.

Duterte's closest aide, Bong Go, said posts for Cabinet officials are 80-percent filled up, according to TV5's Mia Reyes.

Prospective Budget Secretary Benjamin Diokno arrived in Davao Tuesday morning, a day after Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte was officially proclaimed president-elect, according to TV reports.

Other potential members of the Cabinet are also expected to head to Davao to meet with the president-elect, who is scheduled to take his oath of office on June 30.
