The Bureau of Immigration (BI) has reshuffled its field officials assigned in various ports in the provinces, including immigration officers assigned at the international airport in Clark Field, Pampanga.

 

            BI Commissioner Ricardo David Jr. issued last week the personnel orders reassigning several employees to various posts after implementing a similar revamp of some key officials at the bureau’s main office in Intramuros, Manila.

 

            “These personnel changes are part of our continuing efforts to re-energize and inject dynamism in our organization as well to professionalize and harness the potentials of our employees,” David said in a statement.

 

            Among the employees who were reassigned were Ma. Rhodora Abrazaldo, who was named head immigration supervisor of the Diosdao Macapagal International Airport in (DMIA) in Angeles City.

 

            Three immigration officers assigned at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) were transferred to the DMIA in lieu of three of their colleagues who were recalled to their mother units in Manila.

 

            Roseo Isabelo Manguiat and Jhoann Catalla were named acting alien control officer (ACO) of Batangas and Lucena cities, respectively.

 

The port of Boac, Marinduque is now headed by acting ACO Carlos de Peralta and Jocelyn Barleta was named acting ACO of San Jose, Mindoro.  Thelma Guiritan was named head of the BI satellite office in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

 

            It was learned that David abolished the offices of regional immigration supervisors in Regions 3 and 7 and recalled to Manila the employees previously assigned to the posts.

 

            Also announced was the appointment of Atty. Vicente Uncad as head of the BI task force on special visa for employment generation (SVEG), vice lawyer Cris Villalobos who now heads the bureau’s student desk.###
