The government is readying up its forces in order to properly address the insurgency issues in the country. And one such move that is planned by the government is to conduct joint trainings on internal security operation that can be participated in by officers of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Philippine National Police. The joint internal security operation trainings will cover a number of strategies that can help these officers and will also cover strategies that can help and promote inter-agency operations.
The training programs are part of the agreement between the Philippine Public Safety College, the Armed Forces of the Philippines on the Joint Program of Instruction for police and military officers that are taking up the Public Safety Officers Senior Executive Course. The memorandum of agreement was signed by the representatives of the PPSC and the AFP. On the side of the PPSC, President Margarita Cojuangco signed the MOA and on the part of the AFP, AFP Chief of Staff General Victor S. Ibrado was on board to sign the memorandum. According to Secretary Ronnie Puno, the training programs that are planned are designed to strengthened and also enhance the cooperation and the coordination between the AFP and the PNP. More importantly, these training programs will focus on the mutual concerns common to the two organizations like the ISO.
In the opinion of undersecretary Cojuangco of the PPSC, these training programs will effectively harmonize and complement the skills and the efforts of the AFP and the PNP in the planning and the implementation process of the policies of the country’s internal security concerns. Thanks to these training programs, officers of the two peace keeping organizations can meet and work together on many aspects. As per the plans shared by Secretary Puno, the first batch of the training will include 134 student officers from the AFP and another 44 from PNP. The training sessions will be held at the PPSC complex in Quezon City. Some of the topics to be covered include knowing the enemy, the National Internal Security Plan, the Civil-Military Operations and a few more.
