preparedness, provide military education preparation for service
in AFP and become potential officer. This program is one of the
components of NSTP that an individual should comply. These
component help them to be more ready in ROTC. Under these it also
tackles about youth having access in military training,
participate in regular ROTC instruction and exposure to high
levels of civilian mind. These components help an individual to
have more access in ROTC. In our country. Tris kind of program
will be mandatory nationwide. It will be implemented in public

ROTC was first implemented and subject to the UP and the

year 1935 made it mandatory to all colleges and universities. But
in 2022 it was completely abolished because of death of a cadet
in the UST. It was brutal that the cadet’s were killed because of
it's exposure to ROTC training corruption in UST, but it was only
the 17th of February in 2017 a law approved by President Duterte
was resurrecting the ROTC. The measure will grant Grade 11 and 12
students to ROTC. But the president say's, ROTC residence is unique
to former ROTC in the wake of corruption. He said the new ROTC is
not worthy of corruption, no hazing and sexual harassment. The
Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) also pledged to have in
order to prevent ROTC bad happenings.( Jepoyo 2017)

ROTC resurgence has sprouted due to the tension seen in the

regional territorial dispute in the west Philippines sea where
the Chinese claimed it. If ROTC is mandatory for students in
Grade 12 and Grade 11 they will be prepared as officers who can
be called immediately to defer the country of any occupation. The
ROTC also saw the importance of the recent super typhoon in the
Visayas region where many died and destroyed property. The ROTC
cadet can help save and deliver relief goods to disaster victims.
