Chairman Guillermo N. Carague has given three seasoned COA
Directors new assignments effective immediately.
In Reassignment Order No. 2001-125 issued on November 15,
2001, Dir. Raquel Habitan was reassigned from Corporate Audit Office II to the
Legal Office.
This is the second time Attorney Habitan will hold the
position of COA General Counsel and head of the Legal Office. The first was
during the immediate past COA administration when she was reassigned from the
Administrative Office to the Legal Office.
Dir. Gloria S. Cornejo has been tapped to take the place of
Dir. Habitan as head of the Corporate Audit Office II.
For a while, Dir. Cornejo headed the Technical Services
Office and, for several years, the Accountancy Office.
Under the same Reassignment Order, Director Elizabeth S. Zosa,
a Lawyer and Engineer, is named Officer-in-Charge of the Technical Services
Office, replacing Dir. Cornejo. She is concurrently assigned at the Chairman’s
Office as Special Assistant to the Chairman.
Prior to this latest assignment as OIC of the TSO, Dir. Zosa,
has held the number two position at the Special Audit Office, COA Regional
Office No. 4, and TSO.
The reassignment of the Directors Habitan, Cornejo and Zosa was triggered by
the recent retirement of Assistant Commissioner Santos Alquizalas who,
immediately before bowing out of office, was the COA General Counsel and head of
the Legal Office.
