Former 1st District Cong. Jacinto “Jing” Paras, has been appointed labor undersecretary by President Rodrigo Duterte.
News of his appointment was announced by Malacanang on Thursday, January 25.
Paras, prior to his appointment, was a lawyer and member of the Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption (VACC), which allied itself with President Duterte.
Paras was also in the news last year for his role in putting together the botched impeachment complaint against Commission on Elections chief Andres Bautista and for having filed a complaint against Overall Deputy Ombudsman Arthur Carandang for his supposedly “unlawful disclosure” of the Duterte family’s bank transactions.
