AFP leadership dev't hub adapts to changes, crises

 

The officers and enlisted personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Leadership Development Center (AFPLDC) have adapted quickly to changes and crises.

"Despite being only on its second year, the men and women behind the AFPLDC have adapted swiftly to the drastic changes in this time of rampant crises,” AFP chief-of-staff Gen. Gilbert Gapay said in his speech at the second founding anniversary of the AFPLDC in Camp Aguinaldo, Quezon City on Thursday.

Gapay said this is a great achievement as the AFPLDC is tasked to support the security sector in "reporting the efforts of the defense establishment in developing professional, moral, and ethical AFP leaders."

With the theme “Leading The Way Towards Filipino Military Leadership”, the AFPLDC, which is under the AFP Education, Training and Doctrine Command (AFPETDC), aims to continue with the mandate of nurturing military leaders whose attributes represent the best of the Filipino.

The AFPLDC is led by Navy Capt. Andro Val Abayon while the AFPETDC is commanded by Marine Maj. Gen. Edgard Arevalo, who is also AFP spokesperson.

“Your anniversary theme not only underscores your exemplary performance and stellar achievements in the past year but also sets the tone for the jumpstart for this center to grab opportunities to further refine your method of operations in the coming years,” Gapay said.

He also congratulated the entire leadership and staff of the AFPETDC and AFPLDC and urged them to put their best foot forward.
