President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has issued a memorandum requiring all government agencies to support the implementation of the 2024 National Security Strategy (NSS). The NSS aims to address both internal and external security threats and outlines 53 strategic directions and 393 actionable steps.
President Marcos ordered all government agencies and offices to support the implementation of the 2024 National Security Strategy (NSS) of his administration that aims to address internal and external security threats and challenges.
Memorandum Circular (MC) 75, which was approved by the President and signed by Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin on December 20, instructed all concerned agencies and instrumentalities of the national government, including those from the local government units and government-owned or controlled corporations, to take part in the efforts to help in the implementation of the plans and programs provided under the NSS.The memorandum lays out 53 strategic directions and 393 actionable steps “that will secure the country’s sovereignty and promote the welfare of citizens” wherein the President also encouraged the private sector group to support the government program, which he green-lighted last December 19. Under the said order, the National Security Council (NSC) is mandated to “monitor and assess its implementation and submit an annual report to the Office of the President through the executive secretary.” The NSS focuses on four key areas: human capital development, institution-building, efficient use of instruments of national power such as diplomacy and defense and sustainable growth through economic resilience and legislative support. The NSC is ordered as well to coordinate with the Presidential Communications Office in the dissemination of the official copies of the NSS 2024 to all concerned national and local government agencies and in the undertaking of information and awareness campaigns on the plans and programs that were included therein. The memorandum also stated that the funding needed for the implementation of the order would be charged against the existing appropriations of the respective agencies, subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations
