In his weekly vlog aired on Saturday, Marcos said the ROTC is designed to train high school students not only for national defense preparedness but also for disaster response and emergency management.
Marcos said while Filipinos are naturally caring and always ready to help others in times of disasters, those who respond to calamities must be properly trained and equipped with knowledge and skills in disaster response.
“These were destroyed and they need to be restored immediately. We plan to build disaster-proof roads and buildings, including heritage sites, schools, hospitals, and houses,” he said.
