The Philippines will soon acquire a dozen of fighter jets made in Korea, resulting from the trip of President Aquino recently in that country. This is good news for us as we are now growing mature in minding our self defense capabilities amid the tension in the west Philippine sea row.
Korea has been manufacturing and exporting Fighter aircrafts and I am really amused by the transformation of this country that has become economically giant since the end of their war. Not only that, Korea's economy has been in the afront ever since with it's world famous brands of household products and industries.
I cannot deny my intention of comparing
the Philippines and Korea. I think we need to probe their will and Spirit that has become so successful today, and if found, we need to emulate and copy them to fast track our own growing economy.
My most important concern also is the amount of military spending for the 12 pieces of military jets which is valued to 18 billion pesos which will make Korea more richer.
In this line, I would like to appeal.
Let's make use of the budget amount a little more useful than by just throwing it away.
Why not make the money spent locally for those new machines for military by converting them into a DEFENSE INDUSTRY.
How?
We have no factories right now.
Correct.
This is the reason to start a factory, a Manufacturing facility that will produce Fighter jets for the Philippines with that billions.
DEFENSE INDUSTRY is an economic Generator.
The amount is enough to kick-off the industry
and we need them badly as early as possible.
Who will invest? The government or the Private Sector?
It is neither of the two, it doesn't matter, what matters is FILIPINO.
In the Private sector, we call the merging of Billionaires in the country. They not hesitate, they will help and promote the project even more.
