When he was appointed by President [Corazon] Aquino, Ting was a brilliant finance secretary whose legacy will be remembered as having steered the Philippines away from the brink of financial collapse. Current and future civil servants would do well to remember the prudence of his policy even in these times of relative plenty,” Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima said.
