Wargaming• To test if the proposed organization will work as defined and function
based on its process, Group 2 decided to test it through the following scenarios:
• SCENARIO #1: SND announced this morning that DND will not have a celebration of its anniversary next year. However, it will still implement its celebration activities for its anniversary this year. What will Stratcom do?
• SCENARIO #2: After the peace agreement was signed with the MILF last year, another 33 soldiers were killed in action this morning in Central Mindanao with similar situations with that of what happened in Basilan on August 2009. How will Stratcom react to this?
• SCENARIO #3: Heavy rains caused flooding in Southern Mindanao causing tens of thousands of evacuees, distraction of farms and houses. Mt. Apo, on the other hand, erupted causing hot lavas flowing up to the highways of Kidapawan, North Cotabato. Unfortunately, an earthquake with a 7.8 magnitude in Richter scale took place in Metro Manila 2 hours ago. What will Stratcom do in the next 6 hours?
What do you think?
I really believe we should rename OPLA to ODSC (Office of the Defense Stratcom)… did not include wargaming results (tired
na kasi, may trip pa bukas!)
