Lahi Class of 2015 at Fort Gregorio del Pilar.
Joining the President in this event are Defense Secretary
Voltaire Gazmin, Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Chief of Staff General
Gregorio Pio Catapang, as well as other ranking military officials.
Malacañang this early has sent its well wishes to this
year’s batch of graduates led by class valedictorian, Cadet First Class Arwi C.
Martinez, who will soon join the ranks of the Philippine Army.
“We wish all the graduates luck and safety as they continue
to bear the flag for us,” Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Abigail Valte told
an interview over state-run Radyo ng Bayan, Saturday.
Valte also welcomed the news that a woman, Cadet Caroline

observe the National Women’s Month.
President Aquino is scheduled to arrive here at 9:00 a.m. to
first inaugurate the newly completed PMA Sports Complex at the Jurado Hall. He
will then proceed to the Fajardo Grandstand to grace the estimated two-hour
Commencement Program.
About 5,000 people are expected to attend the program,
including members of the AFP Cadet Corps, former PMA Superintendents, PMA
Command Personnel Officers, AFP Major Services and Area Commanders, PMA alumni,
members of the Foreign Armed Forces Attaché, enlisted personnel and civilian
employees, friends and relatives of the graduating class, local government
officials and other guests.
President Aquino will also take part in the Merienda Cena
