President Rodrigo Duterte has fired Government Corporate Counsel Rudolf Philip Jurado for allegedly allowing a 75-year lease agreement to a casino operator within the Aurora Pacific Economic Zone without a public bidding.
“May I call the government corporate counsel now? Are you here? Because if you are here, come out you son of a whore. You are fired,” Duterte dared Jurado.
Jurado allegedly allowed Apeco to approve a gambling permit and a 75-year lease agreement to a foreign corporation to build a casino-hotel at the rate of P150 per sq.m without public bidding.
Jurado has denied the allegation against him.
