Marcos Tells Cabinet to Quit, Seeking Reset After Midterms

Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has told his entire Cabinet to resign, announcing a bid to “recalibrate” his administration after an underwhelming performance by his allies in last week’s Senate election.

“It’s time to realign government with the people’s expectations,” Marcos said in a statement released by his communications office Thursday. “The people have spoken, and they expect results — not politics, not excuses. We hear them, and we will act.”
