    I graduated college (USC) more than a decade ago, I am now 34 years old.

    Here's my take on it:

    ROTC program in the Philippines is still useless!

    Back in college we were hoping for a more practical ROTC, but only a handful can handle rifles and do a mock soldier training, tactics. The majority just do push ups, and march around under the killer heat of the sun.

    ROTC in todays context teaches the chain of command? hierarchy? I doubt it.

    I still say, it's a haven for corruption, bullying, discrimination and most of all we learn less into that kind of course.
    I can't feel and see the noble teaching/purpose in the ROTC of today

    I just feel the need to clarify and give information regarding the post of RadioStar. Admittedly, I haven't read the proposal/bill of Rep. Gullas. RA 9163 clearly states that under NSTP there are three options a student can choose. The school under the approval of the regulating bodies can choose one of the three options UNDER NSTP to be implemented. Thus, a school (as approved) may opt to implement only one of the three options. However, in the common practice there are three options laid.

    Sad to say, mura nga na confuse ang uban. Mo-ingon gani NSTP equivalent dayon sa Civic works, which is not the case. CWTS is just one of the three programs of NSTP. Hence, sayop ang mo-ingon nga ang NSTP is just civic works and no ROTC. Naa man gihapon. Less lang ang mopili nga maoy gi-restore ni GUlLLAS. It was not abolished but it was made as an option.

    Thus, the thread ROTC restoration opposed means restoring ROTC as mandatory.

    last batch mi sa ROTC na mandatory pa jud, in my opinion, nahan ko ma mandatory ang ROTC, mas desiplinado man gud, then mka learn pud ka to respect sa uban and sa imo lugar. thats my opinion lang.

    same here. I was the last batch before it was put into law nga optional na lang. Imagine for two years ga pas-an lang kog karaan nga pusil anang garan ba (na wa gani ko kabw spelling ani), what a waste!

    i was struggling with my scholarship dayon naa pa ni nga course! pagka!

    nice na nga naa kay cwts coz by arrangement you could do your civic works (as a group) whenever you are free and not on your precious sundays!
