Philippine Army (PA) welcomes the visit of the Indonesian Army (IA) as
part of the two country’s efforts to strengthen its military ties here
today, October 28.
During the courtesy call, Army Vice
Commander Maj. Gen. Reynaldo M. Aquino and Deputy Assistant Chief of
Staff for Security of the Tentra National Indonesia, Angkatan Darat (TNI
AD) Brig. Gen. Djaka Budi Utama discussed both armies’ future
cooperation in order to prepare its respective forces against evolving
threats in their respective regions.
Moreover, as the PA expressed its
interest in acquiring military supplies from the IA, it also offered to
