SAYING "public service is no easy task," President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Wednesday urged the officers of the Malacañang Press Corps (MPC) and other newly-appointed officials of various government agencies to continue to demonstrate excellence and integrity in performing their duties. Valente was elected MPC secretary. As such, I trust that you will remain models of excellence and integrity, especially to your staff, stakeholders, and communities," Marcos said. "These individuals are leaders and trailblazers in their own professions — exemplars of patriotism, of excellence, and wholehearted service throughout their careers and endeavors," he added. "Life in government will always be hard and challenging, but every service delivered brings purpose, it brings fulfillment," he added.
