00:00Beyond military operations, you have been instrumental in providing humanitarian assistance
00:06and disaster response during some of our darkest hours.
00:11In the wake of severe tropical storms Christine, Nika, Super Typhoons Leon and Pepito, your
00:18swift and coordinated efforts saved many, many lives.
00:23These actions remind us that the AFP is a force of compassion.
00:29However, we continue to face complex and dynamic challenges, threats to our sovereignty, lawless
00:35elements that undermine peace, and the increasing frequency of natural disasters.
00:42These require us to remain steadfast, resourceful, unyielding in our resolve.
00:49As stewards of our national defense, you bear the solemn responsibility of ensuring the
00:54security of our land, of our seas, of our skies, our cyberspace.
01:01In defending our waters, we must uphold international maritime laws, deepening our commitment to
01:07regional peace and cooperation.
01:10By fostering coordination amongst nations, we can safeguard stability while advancing
01:16our collective interests.
01:18Diplomacy rooted in a strong legal foundation is our most effective instrument in navigating
01:24these endeavors.
01:26Equally, we must continue to empower our troops to serve our communities better.
01:33Train them to respond not only with skill, but with empathy, ensuring that their actions
01:38reflect the highest ideals of public service.
