RRL Mandatory ROTC

The document discusses several topics related to the Mandatory ROTC Senate Bill No. 2232 in the Philippines, including: - The bill would require senior high school students aged 16-17 to participate in ROTC training. While the President argues this would strengthen national defense, others worry about past issues with corruption and violence. - Instead of passing new laws, the government should focus on generating public acceptance and supporting existing civic institutions for youth that provide opportunities to engage with their community in a non-violent way, such as the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. - Strengthening programs like the Boy/Girl Scouts could better improve youth problem-solving and communication skills compared to mandating

Each leading government official in our administration here in the Philippines always

faces immensely massive challenges which are related to pedagogy. The growing
population of the youths in the Philippines as time goes by needs improved proper
education system to be beneficial to the society and to have correct mindset since they
could be the future leaders of our country that will also encounter insurmountable
workloads. The 16th congress of the Philippines is believed to be responsible of the
implementation of the new policies added to our law. Every policies and laws are
allegedly believed that will widen the access to education. (Kreji, A.C. M. 2019)

In the State of the Nation Address of the current President Rodrigo Duterte he
reiterated his immense support for the approval of the bill , arguing that it would
“strengthen” the defense of the country” (Bonz Magsambol, 2019)

The Mandatory ROTC Senate Bill No. 2232 straight-forwardly implies on the interest of
the students particularly Senior High School students aged 16 to 17 years old.

While avoiding the miserable past of Mandatory Rotc that implies to the case of Cadet
Officer Mark Chua studying on University of Santo Tomas that involves corruption and
murder or President instills that this will serve as a way to promote “patriotism, love of
country, moral and spiritual values, respect for human rights and adherence to the
constitution”.

Passing another law is not enough before thinking that learning from ROTC and other
alike civic service training and development it’s the best if we consider other more
important things such as :

Generating acceptance, ownership to support the stakeholders. The government needs


to consult the people involved in such new heavy proposal in that way we can practice
democracy.

Resuscitate corroded civic institutions and strengthen recently created ones.


Most of the netizens overlooked the powerful civic orientations and engagement that
have been hijacked, neglected and weaponized for personal reasons. We must
strengthen and nurture institutions like Boy Scouts of the Philippines, Girl Scouts of the
Philippines , and Res Cross instead because they provide more opportunities and
capabilities for the youth to engage that can improve their problem solving capabilities
and communication with their family and community. Improve the already existing
institutions that already provides benefits instead of those that promotes violence and
such. ( Segundo Eclar Romero, 2019)
