THE unexplained haste with which President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. recently reorganized the National Security Council (NSC), by removing Vice President Sara Duterte and former presidents Rodrigo Roa Duterte, Joseph Ejercito Estrada and Gloria Macapagal Arroyo as NSC members, has so far failed to trigger its urgent convening to discuss any legitimate national security problem.
This perforce raises the question: Why the rush to reorganize when there was no plan to put the council to work on any national security concern?
