What's clear from the IIRC report is that the government of the Philippines viewed this incident as a local matter. Hence, it was under the jurisdiction of Alfredo Lim as Mayor of Manila. The IIRC report identified that there is no existing protocol to have bumped it up the chain, even if the situation involved foreign nationals.
The fact of the matter is that Lim was the highest ranking authority as Chair of the Crisis Management Committee . His was perhaps the highest negligence in the matter. He did not form the Crisis Management Committee. Mayor Lim claimed that by issuing orders to Magtibay, and had asked the general to inform him of his requirements he had "effectively convened and operationalized the CMC."
The IIRC determined that it was Lim who should have determined that the components of the CMC were formed. He should have ensured that there were subcommittees handling intelligence, media, and all the other point person.
