Amid the "changing tides" in the Philippines' national security, President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. said the country is working to recalibrate its focus more to external defense of its borders.
"In this crucial transition, full support for the Armed Forces must be guaranteed, especially for the Philippine Navy’s priority goals of enhancing its intelligence, defense, and coordinative capabilities," Marcos said. "By then, the AFP will be more effective in its military aims and more responsive to our national goals," he said.
"Oh yes. Oh yes. Lahat 'yan ginagamit talaga natin pang patrolya, hindi lamang sa West Philippine Sea kung hindi pagka diyan sa civil defense ," Marcos said.
