Enhanced Armed Forces

Super Pilipinas  December 5, 2016

The situation of our military must be addressed.  The current hardwares that we have must be upgraded, and the reason for the AFP modernization program is very immediate that the capability of our military is apt to answer the call at anytime against all kinds of threats.

Indigenous Technology

One big consideration for the government to to look upon and take full attention thereto is the situation of our indigenous technology available and the moment, and for its further development and studies. The contribution it will bring for the use and  harness of the local technology is enormous, as it will bring multi-lateral effects for our economy.

New development by our local research must be given attention and regard, as our local talents, its promotion will enhance the technological level of this country, as well as given them support, will serve as the foundation of pure filipino technology in the future.

Our dependence on foreign imports for our military hard wares is draining our fiscal matters, and the foreign reserves that we need more to support our economy is then pressured, whereby  the resort to local technology and manufacturing must be started and accelerated immediately to cope with the needs of our military and the savings it will bring under our national budget.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing is the biggest game changer for the country, as its effects on the economy and the enhancement of our local technology that put to practice and test, gives our capability to be sustainable in the future.

The intention to be self-reliant shall be our main attention and focus by infusing local talents, through research funded local and abroad.All start up must be initiated and acted immediately to realize this dream, because if not, we will remain to be bullied by our neighbors and foreign aggressors we now experience under the situation  in the west Philippine sea.

By having enough materials for our navy, air force and technologies developed, we will be able to attend and confront with ease every situation and threats in our sovereignty.

Foreign Reserves

Our financial concern is the topmost of all in seeing our economy grow, but with the continued dependence on foreign acquisitions for our military which is in billions of pesos, we will end up bankrupt if we will not resort to local manufacturing and improting new technologies for our local designs for the armed forces.

The dollars we have can maintain our economy by not using them more in foreign military purchases in dollars.  By engaging in local industries and further research, we cannot save our foreign reserves by which we have spent so much in previous administrations.

Employment

Local manufacturing will bring in more employment for the country. By buying foreign naval ships abroad, like in Korea, is like giving them employment, while we  suffer where to put our local labor force here, and much more, we push our skilled masters seek employment abroad because of  lack job opportunities at home.

By buying more military trucks from South Korea in millions of dollars is like killing our own economy, and giving the SK, their livelihood and income. 

Our local car industry has been actually zero up to the current, and by way of resolving the situation is by making this industry come alive through procurement of the government these military trucks via our local fabricators and manufacturers, thus, giving ourselves employment for our own people 

The polarization on the economy by this car manufacturing industry is immense in the sense that all other support industries will pop up made by the micro enterprises it will be created by this sector.
