00:00Commandant Exercise 2024 is now in progress.

00:03It will strengthen the disaster response and maintain regional security in the Indo-Pacific region.

00:09Patrick Desus has the details.

00:14I hereby declare the Commandant 08-24 open effective this day.

00:24The U.S. Marines and Philippine Marine Corps will train for more than a week

00:29under the auspices of the Marines in the Sea or Commandant Exercises 2024.

00:36This is the eighth time of the so-called training that is bigger this year

00:42and will be led by more than 2,000 participants.

00:45This includes the Australian Defense Force, British Armed Forces,

00:50Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, and Republic of Korea Marine Corps.

00:55The observers will be France, Thailand, and Indonesia.

01:02The Commandant Exercises will focus on disaster response

01:07and maintain regional security in the Indo-Pacific region.

01:12The Commandant Exercises will be held in Palawan, Central Luzon,

01:15even in Ilocos Norte and Matanes in northern Luzon

01:20where there will be live fire drills.

01:23Recently, the People's Liberation Army of China conducted military drills

01:29in the vicinity of Taiwan.

01:31In the midst of this, the Commandant Exercises had nothing to do

01:35with geopolitical situations and did not show strength.

01:41This exercise basically focuses on our main objective

01:47which is to foster good relations, to enhance interoperability,

01:57and of course to strengthen our ties with our partner nations.

02:03And so this exercise, regardless of what's going on geopolitically,

02:08is going to happen and it's to benefit really the Philippine Marine Corps,

02:12our partners and allies in the region to come together to get better,

02:17to respond to anything such as humanitarian crisis.

02:22Even so, one of the scenarios is the evacuation,

02:26like the Filipinos in Taiwan, if necessary.

02:30Any crisis occurring in Taiwan

02:34would involve our concern to our OFWs in Taiwan.

02:41And I think it's more of preparing our forces

02:48whenever there will be repatriation of our OFWs.

02:53We are not exercising to join the fight

03:00if there will be any fight in that part of the region.

03:03In the expansion of more countries,

03:05which will show the established interoperability in the Commandant Exercises

03:10and other exercises that will continue to improve,

03:14aside from the Philippine Marines,

03:16the Philippine Coast Guard and PNP will also expand.
