During the virtual event, the Army chief recalled the 2nd Brunei-Philippines (BRUPHIL) Army Working Group, which developed 12 bilateral military cooperation and interaction for 2022. He also expressed optimism on the success of BRUPHIL activities amid the pandemic.

“Hopefully, this collaboration will continue beyond this pandemic. More than ever, we should demonstrate solidarity in this time of trial and crisis. I know we are in tough times, but being united, we will rise again,” said Lt. Gen. Centino.

“The Philippine Army is looking forward to the prospect of future collaborations and successful execution of our bilateral engagements that we have lined up for next year,” the Army Commanding General concluded.
