President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Saturday reiterated that the Philippines will not give up an inch of its territory.
"This country will not lose one inch of its territory. We will continue to uphold our territorial integrity and sovereignty in accordance with our Constitution and with international law. We will work with our neighbors to secure the safety and security of our peoples," Marcos said in his speech during the alumni homecoming at the Philippine Military Academy in Fort del Pilar, Baguio City.
"The country has seen heightened geopolitical tensions that do not conform to our ideals of peace and threaten the security and stability of the country, of the region, and of the world," Marcos said.Marcos in his speech also thanked the PMA alumni for their contributions and service to the country. The President then said efforts to develop the country will continue to give citizens a better future.
"In the past seven months, we have been working hard to steer the country to a high-growth trajectory. The current operating environment is uncertain and grows increasingly complex. As we continue to develop our internal resources, we must pursue a path of prosperity that contributes to goals shared with the international community," Marcos said.
