NO PSG yet for Duterte and family

Presumptive President Rodrigo Duterte and family will not be given any Presidential Security group for their security just yet.

According to Presidential Communications Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr., based on the constitution and protocoal, Mayor Duterte and his family will only be provided with PSG once he gets proclaimed by Congress as the 16th President of the Philippines.

Coloma said that only the President, the first family and former presidents of the country will be provided with PSG details.

Meanwhile, President Benigno Aquino III signed administrative order no. 49, which aims to forme the presidential transition committee to make sure that the transition of government between the two Presidents will be done peacefully and orderly.

Secretary Coloma confirmed that the transition committee, to be headed by Executive Secretary Pacquito Ochoa will be having a meeting today.

However, Coloma did not reveal the other members of the said committee.  He will be providing an update on what transpired during the said meeting once information is available.

In line with this, Malacanang is leaving it up to the Filipino people on what grade they will be giving the Aquino administration throughout its service for six years.
