Within hours of being sworn into office on Sunday, Milei made good on his vow to take a “chainsaw” both to government spending and to what he called his country’s “political caste,” signing an executive order to cut the number of government ministries from 18 to nine.

Memo to Australian Bureaucracy. the worm has turned .time for the Government to trim the fat and cut the bloated bureacracy by half.
