The Philippine Army (PA) will continue to capacitate its forces to defeat the various security threats and help in good governance, its chief said on Wednesday.

“We shall continue to be the hope of our people. We shall capacitate our forces to find, fix, and finish the enemy, exploit gains, and sustain good governance. We will exemplify honor, patriotism, and duty,” Lt. Gen. Cirilito Sobejana said during his visit to the 53rd Engineer Brigade during its 53rd founding anniversary in Camp Lapu-Lapu, Cebu City.

Sobejana also lauded the brigade for supporting and contributing to the government’s socio-economic development programs in the Visayas region.

Meanwhile, Army spokesperson Col. Ramon Zagala said the unit assisted in several base development initiatives, including the enhancement of the Central Command emergency quarantine facility, and other projects in partnership with local government units and stakeholders.

"They also assisted the Covid-19 efforts in the distribution of relief goods, personal protective equipment, social amelioration for the affected families, fabrication of handwashing stations, and construction of quarantine facilities," Zagala said.
