Mrs. Arroyo was visibly displeased when told by Palace reporters that theaters were dishonoring deputy cards issued by former MTRCB chairwoman Marilen Dinglasan upon orders of OIC Dennis Manicad.
The Malacañang reporters were themselves holders of MTRCB deputy cards which were supposed to be effective for one year.
Mrs. Arroyo instructed Presidential Spokesman Rigoberto Tiglao to call the attention of Manicad who, she stressed, is merely an OIC until a permanent MTRCB head is named. — Marichu Villanueva
