Lt. Col. Harold Cabunoc, incoming PAO chief of the military: a veteran in the task of representing the AFP.
A member of the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) “Bantay Laya” Class of 1994 and a veteran in speaking for the military is the incoming chief of the Public Affairs Office (PAO) of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP).
AFP Chief of Staff Gen. Gregorio Pio Catapang has appointed Lt. Col. Harold Cabunoc for the position.
He will replace Lt. Col. Ramon Zagala, a product of the Officer Candidate School (OCS).
“The CSAFP (Chief of Staff, AFP) has told me to start serving as the Chief, PAO on October 1,” said Cabunoc. He is leaving his position as commander of the 7th Civil Relations Group (CRG) at Camp Aguinaldo on October 3.
Major Emmanuel Garcia, the outgoing commander of the 1st CRG based at the Northern Luzon Command (NOLCOM) in Camp Aquino in Tarlac City, will take over Cabunoc's post as the CRG.
In selecting Cabunoc for the position, Catapang was said to have considered the latter’s vast experience in public and media relations.
In 2009, he served as spokesman of the 9th Infantry Division; and in 2010, as the executive officer of the newly-formed Civil Military Operations Battalion. In 2011, he was assigned as Deputy Army Chief of Public Affairs, and was designated later that year as the Army Chief of Public Affairs and Army spokesman.
Besides his expertise in public and media relations, Cabunoc is also a senior adviser and active participant of the multiple world champion Philippine Dragon Boat Team that recently won another gold in the world competition held in the United States.
