LAWYERS Lorenzo 'Larry' Gadon and Erwin Erfe, who both had called for the abolition of the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd), have agreed with a recent statement of The Manila Times Chairman Emeritus Dr. Dante A. Ang saying the commission has been the stumbling block to quality education in the country.

Gadon and Erfe, in separate interviews on Friday, renewed their call for concerned higher authorities to consider scrapping the CHEd and return it to its mother unit, formerly the Department of Education, Culture and Sports (DECS), now the Department of Education (DepEd), as a division.
