MANILA — Gabriel Go has stopped reporting for work at the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) while awaiting his formal appointment as an assistant secretary at the Department of Transportation (DOTr), MMDA Chair Atty. Don Artes disclosed Wednesday.
Artes said the agency had not yet received Go's formal resignation letter, though Go has effectively ceased his duties at the MMDA. The timing of Go's transition to the transportation department remains unclear, with his official documentation still pending.
Go's move to the DOTr marks a shift in roles for the official, who was previously working within the MMDA's administrative structure. The exact nature of his responsibilities at the DOTr has not been detailed.
The MMDA has not announced a replacement for Go's position, nor has it provided further details on the transition process. Go's departure is part of ongoing personnel movements within the national government.
