In recap, recent visit of United States
President Obama to Philippines last April has been a success for us Filipinos. In
fact it resulted with a good feedback as it strengthened the bond between
Philippines and United States. One of the agreed treaties was “security cover”.
In general the treaty signed
directs United States to cover Philippines in times of trouble in terms of
security issues towards its regions. The EDCA agreement is the key
towards developing the defense standing of the Philippine AFP.
“Now we are protected” one
official said but not sure while he speaks to the reporters, “we
should respect what has been stated” Clearly referring to the EEZ. The official said that the treaty is on its
final stage in which how AFP forces will be boosted by US as part of
modernization program.
We are now on the critical points
on how US military will upgrade and use our military facilities without any
violation of the Philippine Laws and Constitutional Conduct. President Aquino
is not stressing the official treaty for final agreement “Make sure everything is being look and no one should be left behind”
as his final words.
Self reliance is best. Aim TO BE SELF RELIANCE IN defense, naval, and military matters.
