MANILA, Philippines — Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio will push for mandatory military service for Filipinos aged 18 years old if she wins as vice president in the 2022 polls.

 

Duterte-Carpio, in a virtual caravan on Wednesday, said she would use the Office of the Vice President to talk to the Congress to “make military service for all 18 years old, male and female, mandatory in our country.”

 

She explained that her proposal is not like the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps — that her father, President Rodrigo Duterte also wanted to be revived but did not materialize — as a mandatory subject, nor would it be a month-long training or for weekends.
