Importance Of Military Training For Filipino Men
III. The government needs to implement compulsory military training for Filipino Men. Our country is facing national security issues and we need a stronger and more powerful force to address the issues immediately. We have interviewed SPO2 Theodore Rivera and he stated that the forces of AFP is only 175,000 while for PNP, it is only 150,000 . Our population is 101,802,706 (as of 2015) and there are only 375,000 who will defend our country. If we add qualified Filipino men starting at ages 18-30 to our military force, Will it be much better to have a stronger military force and by that it would makes us feel safe and be safe?
A. A person should be fit to be a part of the Philippine military force.
Military training is crucial and intense. …show more content…
According to “Constitution made simple” by Hector S. De Leon, Citizenship is a term signifying membership in a democratic state (p.69). Requiring certified Filipino citizens would give a lot of safety to the Filipino community and the government because they are members of the state and their duty is to be loyal to the state and the state to them to provide protection on both parts. If the government will train a certified Filipino citizen, then the government can rely to them their plans for the safety and security of our country and it is possible that safety can be seen and can be felt among the Filipino community. We believe that with cooperation with the Filipino men, we will be able to bring back the paradise we all wanted our home to …show more content…
The training should not exceed for 2 years and the interval is 2 years per service. The Filipino men fitted for training should be enlisted 3 days before the start of training. They would have a choice whether they would postpone it for different kinds of reasons (personal, health and family reasons etc.) as long as they would start at ages 18-30. Filipino men cannot travel outside the country once the military training has started and if it is not yet complete. Once compulsory military training has started, Filipinos cannot travel to prevent from escaping their military service and refraining from completing the required military training. They must obtain an overseas permit with a given amount of time when to return to our country. If exceeded from the given amount of time, then it is possible that they would be arrested once they have entered the territories of the Philippines for incompliance of the required military

    Why America Should Imperialize the Phillipines

    The Spanish have been a monarchy enforcing their laws and customs upon their colonies since the fifteenth century, so the United States should come to the aid of the filipino people by assisting in setting up a democratic government. Recently, America assisted in liberated the island nation of Cuba from spanish rule. The Cubans were tired of the unfair taxation inforced by the Spanish, as well as having no say in the way they are governed. If the Cubans felt this way about the Spanish, the Filipino people have similar feelings about the Spanish rule. The Spanish monarchy is a in complete control of the Philippines and as the proponent of democracy it is the American duty to share this wonderful political gift with nations that are deprived of their natural right to choose how their lands are governed. Recently, the United States government has been an ambassador of democracy in the the Dominican Republic. This country attempted to bring itself out of a tyrannical government on their own, but their effort was futile. The United States took over the Dominican’s government for a short period of time to help assist them in establishing a democracy. The United States has the ability to bring the most modern and socially responsible form of government to…

    Good Citizenship In The United States

    Citizenship is essentially a right or privilege given to many at birth, for others it is earned. In the United States, the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution grants “All persons born or naturalized in the United States…” the specific rights or privileges of a citizen. The democratic society of the United States is sustained by “good” citizens. These individuals are needed because without them the United States democracy would deteriorate. The issue in question is defining what a “good” citizen is. This is not any easy task to accomplish because there are a multitude of different variations, or types, of “good” citizens. The answer is simple when viewed on a larger scale. Democracy, in fact, need not one type of “good” citizen, but a balance…

    The Advantages of Career Training for Military Personnel

    The people leaving military service, because of discharge or retirement, are at a disadvantage in the civilian career field. Skills learned while in the military are not always transferrable, or the person may not have access to the certification required by certain employers or professions. Even though it could cost the government extra money for schooling or other programs, career training is beneficial for everyone, by building confidence, raising employment levels, and decreasing the need for welfare assistance.…

    Army Basic Combat Training

    Once I arrived at Fort Leonard Wood on June ninth and spent the first nine days at the facility known as the 83 adjacent general, but we know it as reception. During reception we received shots, financial paperwork and issued our military uniforms. After completing the nine days I was sent to Echo Company 787th MP BN to start my training. The first three weeks of our training was called ‘red phase’. During red phase the Drill Sergeants are there to break you down mentally and build you back up around the seven Army values. While in red phase we also did team building obstacles, IED classes, learned first aid and finally, drill and ceremony. Drill and ceremony is all about taking commands and learning how to march through discipline, which was not my strong suite but eventually I grew familiar to the training and executed all the commands.…

    Civil Military Relations Who Will Fight The Next War Analysis

    In the USA, education is very expensive and for a vast majority of companies a high level of education is a requirement for an appointment. The armed forces provide many programs in which they offer to pay the education and other perks for young recruits if they decide for a career at the military. It will be an easy chance for many young people without vocational alternatives and often with a criminal past. In this context, I criticize that the Army advertise their program as a new product. They entice young persons by founding hope and rarely make clear what the disadvantages are. In my opinion in a long-term view the Army will be full of young people, with an insecure background, whose situation is used by the Army for their interest. That will be a doubtful circumstance, that should be questioned in an ethical…

    A Study on Self-Esteem and Job Satisfaction

    In any industrial organizations, there is a highlight on the importance of the well-being of its workforce aside from having a concrete structure for its over-all work efficiency. The military is not an exception. It can even be considered as one of the most important and precarious organization in a country such that being a soldier is much more than a work. Considered as a noble profession, it is no joke for anyone to risk lives and limbs in defense of the country’s freedom and sovereignty while being away from families. Senator and chairman of the Senate Committee, Ramon Magsaysay Jr. talked about Filipino soldiers as one of the lowest-paid employees of the government (The Philippine Star, 2002). He also noted that soldiers last received an increase in their base pay in November 1987 or 15 years ago at the time. Another article on 2007 of the Philippine Daily Inquirer talks about the Armed Forces of the Philippines’ (AFP) problem on the lack of the military personnel’s morale and the root cause of its inefficiency which are low salaries, insufficient benefits and antique weaponry. These various news on compensation, inefficiency, and morale issues sprouting in the media about soldiers, has made and has to be the country’s center of attention also. It is then for these informations why the researchers are interested on their job satisfaction and how do they evaluate themselves as a person – self-esteem.…
