FORT
BONIFACIO, Metro Manila – In a flag-raising ceremony held here today,
December 9, the Philippine Army (PA) commemorates the 2019 National
Human Rights Consciousness Week (NHRCW).
Newly-appointed Army Commanding General
Lt. Gen. Gilbert I. Gapay led the activity which was conducted in line
with Republic Act No. 9201, also known as the “National Human Rights
Consciousness WeekAct of 2002”, that aims to bring awareness to the
people of “their basic human rights in relation to the functions and
services offered by these government instrumentalities.”
“The high levels of trust and approval
that we are experiencing today are because of the hard work that has
been done as well as the commitment that we have all made to transform
our institution and ourselves,” said Gabay as he also addressed his
future plans for his term. “With professionalism, discipline, and
dedication to duty, we will continue moving forward together on our
journey to become a world-class Army that is a source of national pride
by 2028,” he added.#
