In 2002, the Republic Act No. 9163 or the compulsory National Ser- vice Training Program (NSTP) Act somehow allowed college students, this time for both men and women, to choose among ROTC, Literacy Training Service, and Civil Welfare Training Ser- vice. But after failing to pass it in the 17th Congress, President Ro- drigo Duterte once again called on lawmakers to ensure the pas- sage of the ROTC Bill. He listed this bill among measures that would “strengthen” the defense of the country, even though he admitted that he tried to skip this program himself during his days. With this affixed goal to “instill patriotism, love of country among our youth,” he supports the passage of a law that would make ROTC mandatory for Grade 11 and 12 students. There are about 28 countries that re- quire not just training but actu- al military service for a certain period of time. Other countries allow voluntary service, selective conscription and so on. However, as expected, there are those who oppose the return of ROTC. Foremost among them are the militant organizations that claim the program to quick- ly change the militarization of the country under the Duterte administration.

Navio Prevails in Davao
Despite the rain and shine environment, Eros Satchi Navio clinched a clean
fourth spot finish in the Junior Elite Category of the Go-For-Gold Sunrise Sprint Triathlon held at Davao City last July 7, 2019.
“Nagiging fit and healthy ka, you meet a lot of friends, you learn how to push yourself when you’re about to give up, when it hurts, you develop your char-acter and mental strength,” Navio exclaimed after the win.
Navio started strong in the first leg, showing the true essence of courage in the bike round, and suc-cessfully accomplished the course in full valor.
The second run leg, took the downfall, and slowed him down, yet the audacity that he displayed took over and navigated the veter-an to a mighty fourth place finish.

“Being involved in sports is a great stress reliever also after a
long day at school” he quoted, “All of this wouldn’t be possible without the support of my class-mates, teachers, friends and most of all The One Above!”
After the race, the Grade 11 stu-dent, immediately took a home trip back to Albay, for continuous classes afterwards, and is look-ing forward for more sports and school inclined endeavors and events in future times.
