President Benigno Aquino III has appointed a retired Air Force brigadier general whose last assignment was chief of the Civil Relations Service (CRS) of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) as the new executive vice president of the National Defense College of the Philippines (NDCP).
In a phone interview with InterAksyon.com, Rolando Jungco Jr. confirmed his appointment.
"Actually, it's my first day of office today," he said.
Jungco, a member of the Philippine Military Academy Sandigan Class of 1982, bowed out of the service in May 2014.
"This job (as NDCP’s EVP) is not new to me as I have been lecturing here for years during my stint at the CRS and even when I was the adjutant general prior to CRS," Jungco said.
The position was left vacant for almost two years after the departure of retired Army Brig. Gen. Ernesto Aradanas.
During the time of former AFP chief of staff and now Bureau of Customs' Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence Jessie Dellosa, a military circular was issued requiring all officers aspiring to be promoted to general to take the Masters on National Security Administration at the NDCP.
The NDCP is directly under the Department of National Defense.
