Col. Benjamin Hao, a member of Philippine Military Academy
Class of 1990, was appointed as the Army's new chief public affairs officer
Thursday.
He replaces Major Enrico Gil C. Ileto, who acted as head of
the said office for more than a month.
Hao is the former commander of Army battalion based in Mindanao .
His assumption of office was presided over by PA
chief-of-staff Major Gen. Rafael C. Valencia.
Prior to his designation, Hao was the commander of a Civil
Military Operations Battalion based in the National Capital Region.
He was also a former faculty member of the AFP Command and
General Staff College
“After 18 years since I first stepped in the realm of
military public affairs, I am now given the chance to lead it for the Army,”
Hao said.
“I will try to provide the best public affairs service that
our Army deserve to have,” he added.
Ileto, who have done a remarkable job of taking care the
Army’s obligation of informing the public even for a short period of time, will
go back to his old post as the Commandant of the Army CMO School
Hao also served as a key figure in the organization of the
defunct AFP National Development Support Command from 2007 to 2009 and as CMO
officer of the Army’s 6th Infantry Division during the post-Maguindanao
massacre incident from January to November 2010.
