MANILA, Philippines – Muling isinalang ni Senador Alan Peter Cayetano ang isang pankulang batas na naglalayong maglaan ng P25 bilyong badyet para sa modernisasyon ng mga kampo ng Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and the Philippine National Police (PNP)  para sa pagpapaunlad ng pasilidad.

Sa pahayag, sinabi ni Cayetano na mahalaga ang papel na ginagampanan ng militar at puwersang pulisya sa pangangalaga ng pambansang seguridad, territorial integrity at law enforcement kaya’t nangangailangan ng dagdag na pondo para sa pagpapaunlad ng kanilang amenities.

“Peace and order is essential to not just the stability of the country, but also its continued growth. We help our military and police personnel perform and realize their mandate by ensuring that the AFP and PNP has sufficient funding for its programs, including the development of their camps and headquarters,” ayon sa senador matapos ihain ang AFP and PNP Camp Development Fund nitong July 3 para sa 20th Congress.

Layunin ng AFP-PNP Camp Development Fund, ayon kay Cayetano na magbigay ng five-year program na may P5 billion annual funding sa bawat ahensiya sa modernisasyon, pagpapaunlad at upgrade ng kampo ng military at pulisyua alinsunod sa  development plans – na may kabuuang P25 billion para AFP at PNP sa itinakdang panahon ng pagpapatupad.

“All development plans and related procurements will be carried out with transparency, with access to sensitive information appropriately restricted to protect national security and public orde,” ayon sa senador.

Aniya, sasakupin ng pondo ang pagpapatayo at pagpapaunlad ng  pangunahing impraestruktura, kabilang ang training centers, lodging areas, wellness and sports facilities, internet connectivity, security systems tulad ng close-circuit televisions (CCTV).

Binanggit din ng senador ang   multiplier effect ng infrastructure investment, sa potensiyal na lumikha ng trabaho, pasiglahin ang local na komunidada at tumulong sa pagbabawas ng kahirapan.

“Investing in infrastructure produces a multiplier effect in terms of generating employment, increasing foreign exchange earnings, and stimulating the local economy, all of which help to alleviate poverty,” aniya. Ernie Reyes
