Manila: Executive Secretary Ralph Recto on Monday dismissed reports of an imminent Cabinet revamp, saying there is no ongoing move to reshuffle President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s Cabinet.

According to Philippine News Agency, Recto stated, "At present, there is no impending Cabinet shake-up." He emphasized that speculation about a looming revamp does not serve any constructive purpose for the Government or the Filipino people. Recto, who serves as the President's chief alter ego, reiterated that all Cabinet members serve at the pleasure of the President and are subject to continuing performance evaluation by Malaca±ang.

"As always, all appointees serve at the pleasure of the President, and their performance is subject to constant review by the Office of the President. Everyone should remain focused on their jobs for the good of our people," he said.

The statement came after a media report earlier claimed that Marcos was preparing what it described as his "most extensive Cabinet shakeup yet," allegedly affecting at least nine government officials. Malaca±ang has previously maintained that any changes in the Cabinet are the sole prerogative of the President and are guided by performance, policy direction, and the administration's priorities.
