“So, under the principle of command responsibility, he felt that he should leave his post,” he told reporters.
Transportation Secretary Vivencio “Vince” Dizon replaced Bonoan.
“Why Vince Dizon? Because he's done a very good job at the Department of Transportation and I think he's already set the stage for all of the things we need to do,” Marcos said.
