MANILA, Philippines – Popondohan ng Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) ang konstruksyon at upgrade ng mga pasilidad sa Philippine Military Academy (PMA).
Ito ang inanunsyo ni PAGCOR chair and chief executive officer Alejandro Tengco kasabay ng PMA Alumni Homecoming sa Baguio City.
Bagamat hindi pa naisasapinal, sinabi ng PAGCOR na sakop nito ang konstruksyon ng bagong
Candidate Control Liaison Office, bagong modern warfare laboratory at marami pang pasilidad sa PMA Sports Complex.
Ang Candidate Control Liaison Office sa Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Medical Center compound sa Quezon City ay kung saan sumasailalim sa kumpletong physical exam ang mga matagumpay na aplikante ng PMA bago pumasok sa akademya sa Baguio.
“We were informed that this office is now in a serious state of deterioration and is in dire need of renovation,” ani Tengco.
“So today, we are affirming our commitment to help fund the construction of the new PMA Candidate Control Liaison Office even if the PMA management has not yet formally requested it.”
Nangako rin siya na popondohan ang konstruksyon ng martial arts studio at isang Olympic-size heated swimming pool bilang essential enhancements sa PMA Sports Complex.
“These projects are proof of our commitment to protect the welfare of the brave men and women of the PMA and the Armed Forces who risk their lives for our nation. With grateful hearts, we will ensure that your sacrifices are never taken for granted and that you can always count on our cooperation and support,” aniya.
Nagpasalamat naman si PMA Superintendent Vice Admiral Caesar Bernard Valencia sa balitang ito ng PAGCOR.
“We are ecstatic that PMA will be continuing its collaboration with PAGCOR,” sinabi ni Valencia.
“Next year, we will be working on a new curriculum and we will delve mainly into electronic warfare, cyber warfare and artificial intelligence. For us to do that, we need a bigger venue where cadets can test theories they learn in class.” RNT/JGC
