The powerful bicameral Commission on Appointments (CA) on Monday, May 17, confirmed the promotion of Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Brigadier General Henry Dayaoen as Major General.
Dayaoen’s confirmation appeared to have been rushed because he could no longer be legally promoted less than a year before his retirement on May 17, 2022.
The CA usually goes into plenary session on Wednesdays to confirm or bypass a presidential nominee or appointee.
Dayaoen’s confirmation was made during the CA’s plenary session presided by Senate President Vicente C. Sotto III, concurrent CA chairman.
Senator Panfilo Lacson, chairman of the Senate national defense committee, seconded the motion to confirm Dayaoen’s promotion made during a hearing by the CA national defense committee.

THE PHILIPPINES on Wednesday banned travelers from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka to prevent the spread of a double-mutant coronavirus first discovered in India, according to the presidential palace.
“All passengers coming from or who have been to Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka within 14 days immediately preceding arrival in the Philippines shall be prohibited from entering the country,” according to a copy of a memo issued by Executive Secretary Salvador C. Medialdea.
The ban will be for a week starting May 7.
Filipino and foreign passengers merely transiting through these countries won’t be barred from entering Manila as long as they stayed in the airport the whole time.
