The proposed legislation which seeks to provide a fixed term for key officers of AFP will likely be enacted into law by President Duterte before he leaves his office in June, Department of National Defense (DND) Secretary Delfin Lorenzana said.

The proposed legislation which seeks to provide a fixed term for key officers of the Armed forces of the Philippines will likely be enacted into law by President Duterte before he leaves his office in June, Department of National Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana said.

In January 2022, the Senate adopted House Bill No. 10521 which prescribes a three-year fixed term for the AFP chief of staff, vice chief of staff, deputy chief of staff; Philippine Army’s commanding general; Philippine Air Force’s commanding general; Philippine Navy’s flag officer in command; unified commanders; and the inspector general.

Once passed into law, the fixed term for AFP chief and other key officers will “bring stability in the military leadership” since the revolving door in the military will be avoided, said Lorenzana. But Lorenzana said the bill will not affect the term of current AFP Chief of Staff, General Andres Centino.
