    Thats the whole point ngano dili sa number 1 , kay lage there are other factors to conside .

    On the brighter side, the Philippines is doing better than other countries commonly associated with warfare.
    What do you mean by that ?

    Well, it's not really a surprise but we seem to be doing better than battle-hardened countries like Lebanon (The Palestine-Israeli conflict), Iraq (Gulf war), etc.

    Which is reassuring, to say the least, when we think about what I read below:
    In 2007, The Jamestown Foundation, a Washington, D.C.-based think tank, reported that the AFP is one of the weakest military forces in Southeast Asia, saying that as the country's primary security threats are land-based—separatist, communist insurgent and terrorist groups—the army has received priority funding, and that the operational effectiveness of the Philippine Navy (PN) and Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) has suffered accordingly, leaving the country's sea lanes largely unprotected.[10] In 2008, The Irrawaddy reported a statement by General Alexander B. Yano, then Chief of Staff of the AFP, that the Philippine military cannot fully defend the country from external threats due to a lack of weapons and a preoccupation with crushing the long-running communist and Muslim insurgencies. Yano went on to say that a more ambitious modernization of the ill-equipped navy and air force to better guard the country from external threats will have to wait, saying, "To be very frank with you, our capability as far as these aspects are concerned is a little deficient," and "We cannot really defend all these areas because of a lack of equipment."

    Anyway, there are a lot of things I don't understand about the military. Yet.
