Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco today said he and all the members of the agency’s Board of Directors have tendered their courtesy resignations last week to give the President a free hand in reorganizing the bureaucracy.

The resignation of the top PAGCOR leadership came even before the Palace called on all officials of government-owned or controlled corporations (GOCCs) to submit their courtesy resignations on Wednesday.

“We serve at the pleasure of the President,” Mr. Tengco said. “And we will accept whatever the Chief Executive’s decision will be.”

Along with Mr. Tengco, those who voluntarily stepped down were PAGCOR President and COO Wilma Eisma and Directors Jose Maria Ortega, Francis Democrito Concordia and Gilbert Cesar Remulla.

Hello there! I'm a 21-year-old university student majoring in Finnish and Korean Language and Literature. I have a deep passion for art and a profound connection to the natural world. My journey through life has been a colorful one, driven by my love for creativity, music, and the wonders of the great outdoors. As a dedicated student, I've already earned a degree in Classic Cantos, a testament to my appreciation for the timeless beauty of classical music. Beyond the classroom, my artistic spirit thrives through my love for painting and drawing. These creative outlets allow me to express my thoughts and emotions, transforming blank canvases into vibrant stories. My interests go far beyond music and art. Singing, playing the piano, and exploring new melodies are integral parts of my life, providing me with both solace and exhilaration. When I'm not immersed in the world of art and music, I find solace in nature's embrace. My heart is drawn to animals and the serene beauty of the natural world, fueling my desire to protect and preserve our precious environment.
