Indeed these are the
new normal.
President Rodrigo Roa
Duterte in his speech told the new graduates of the Philippine Military Academy
(PMA) and the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) to "adapt" to
changes happening around the world or risk lagging behind other countries, as
nations struggle with a pandemic brought about by the novel coronavirus.
"Like
someone once said, we can change with the changing world yet cling to the
unchanging values of life," Duterte said Friday in his speech at the
graduation ceremonies of the PMA and the PNPA via Zoom.

"I
suppose that all of you are imbued with these values. After all, that is what
your alma mater prepared for you."
Duterte urged both the PMA and the PNPA graduates
to be “remain true” to their duties once they are assigned to their posts in
the military and the police. He warned them against committing illegal acts.
"Let
me end this question which I once heard. It goes thus: If those who are tasked
with the maintenance with peace and order, and the protection of public and
private property do no do their mandate, or worse, commit that is which they
are called upon to prevent or guard against. Again I said, the question being,
what then? Sino ang tutulong sa bayan? Who will carry the liberty? Who will
carry our independence? Who will carry the constitutional duty of due process?"
he said.
"Remain
true to that sacred document and remain as ever loyal to the Filipino
flag."
In both PMA and PNPA female cadet topped their
class.
