FINANCE Secretary Benjamin Diokno's admission that neither he nor other economic managers were consulted by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on the rice price cap decision bolsters accounts that I have been receiving over the President's decision-making process. Unfortunately, they claim his decisions have been made haphazardly, and without consultation with his officials or other private advisers knowledgeable about the issue.

Unlike most effective presidents of corporations, and even a few presidents of the Republic, Marcos reportedly hardly consults with advisers on a decision to be made, nor does he have a group that he asks to debate the pros and cons of a controversy. In the case of the rice price cap, I was told that the Agriculture department's senior undersecretary Domingo Panganiban called him up to recommend it, and he immediately agreed to the proposal.

He didn't even discuss with Mar Roxas, who had control of the Philippine National Police, and with the military brass the Special Action Forces' ill-fated operation against a terrorist group in Mamasapano. That resulted in the massacre of 44 of the SAF troops, with the police and military leadership unable to respond because they had not been informed at all of the operation.
