The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), General Romeo S Brawner Jr., highlighted that the call on military coup d’état or military junta is not a solution to societal issues during a press conference held today at the Philippine National Police (PNP) Command Center, Camp Crame, Quezon City.
In his address, General Brawner urged Filipinos to trust in the democratic process, and utilize the upcoming 2025 elections, as a platform to express their concerns and hopes for the future, “Maraming mga problema ang ating bayan, minsan ang naiisip na lang nilang solusyon ay ang military kudeta or military junta. Hindi po ito ang solusyon,” he said, reiterating that elections should be the focal point for change and societal progress.
General Brawner also emphasized that the elections offer an opportunity for citizens to voice their concerns through their votes, encouraging them to choose leaders who will work to correct societal issues “Our call to the people is to use this election as a platform to express our desires by voting for the right individuals who will serve the country and our society,” General Brawner stated.
The AFP is fully committed to maintaining a free, secure, and peaceful 2025 election, working together with all relevant agencies to ensure that the voice of the Filipino people is heard and respected. via AFP | Facebook
