The nine vehicles donated by the Armed Forces and Police Mutual Benefit Association, Inc. (AFPMBAI) to the Philippine Army (PA) will help the latter further carry out its anti-terrorism and coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) containment missions.
“On behalf of the Philippine Army, I thank the AFPMBAI headed by its President and CEO, Maj. Gen. (Robert) Arevalo, for this generosity. Your grant of nine units of vehicle(s), in addition to the 16 you have already donated last year, will not only boost the capability of the Army in the war against terrorism and the impact of the pandemic," Army commander, Lt. Gen. Gilbert Gapay, said in his speech during the blessing and turnover of the vehicles at the PA headquarters in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City on Friday.
Army personnel, along with those of the Navy and Air Force, have been deployed to man various quarantine control points when the enhanced community quarantine was declared in Metro Manila and nearby provinces early this year.
Aside from this, PA medical personnel and their counterparts from the two services are helping care and monitor patients infected with Covid-19 in various government health facilities across the country.
Gapay added that these new vehicles would also uplift the well-being of PA personnel who are engaged in anti-terror operations and Covid-19 front-line duties.
