Duterte highlights importance of ROTC in national security
“In a total outbreak, itong mga ‘to, nandoon sa frontline at hindi mo malaman kung maubos ito sa isang bomba lang o isang machine gun. We have to have a reserve force which can be mobilized anytime.”
“Kailangan tayo na kumuha ng ROTC, undergo the training kasi alam mo, pagdating ng panahon, alam mo magkasa ng Armalite, alam mo mag-dismantle kung masira, at alam mong bumaril.”
“Do it and I order it every day. It will be spearheaded by the Armed Forces of the Philippines and those who’d like to participate.”
