MACTAN-CEBU International Airport Authority (MCIAA) general manager Steve Dicdican has not stepped down from his post even though the Office of the Ombudsman already ordered his preventive suspension for allegedly violating the Anti-Dummy Law by allowing foreigners to run the airport’s operations.
“I have not received a copy of the order, so it’s not yet effective and there’s nothing for me to appeal. I’m still the GM. It’s fortunate too since I can still handle this emerging situation with the new mutated Covid-19 strains and the change in travel and health protocols. During a pandemic, we really need all hands on deck. The Ombudsman ought to know that,” Dicdican said in a text message.
