  • Japan's Weapons Transfers to Southeast Asia
    ISSUE: 2021 No. 70 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 25 May 2021 Japan’s Weapons Transfers to Southeast Asia: Opportunities and Challenges Victor Teo* Riding on the rise of neo-conservatism in Japan, the Abe government decided in 2012 that it was vital for Japan to acquire greater autonomy and independence for the sake of its technological sector, particularly those related to the manufacturing of weapon systems. In this picture, a Japanese Navy sailor walks next to a gun on Japan's missile destroyer JS Sazanami during the inauguration of joint naval exercises with the United States and India in Chennai on July 10, 2017.

National Defense 2. Security Operations 3. Deterrence 4. National Development The Navy's Roles The modern Navy has expanded its roles beyond the initial mandate to protect the country's shores. These roles include: 1. The Navy shall defend the territory from external aggression. 2. The Navy shall continue its role of securing the Philippine maritime areas from all forms of intrusions and encroachment, piracy and drug trafficking. 3. The Navy shall assist other government agencies in protecting our marine resources and environment. 4.

History The Philippines had long been a seafaring nation. Early Filipino inhabitants came from across the seas - from Ancient China, Borneo and Malay Peninsula. For centuries, seafaring natives living along the coastal areas of the country have sailed across the uncharted waters of the surrounding seas in their frail little boats. The Filipino seafarers engaged in a very active trade and made regular voyages to neighboring countries in Southeast Asia and the Far East.

  • Asia's China Strategy
    9th Berlin Conference on Asian Security (BCAS) International Dimensions of National (In)Security Concepts, Challenges and Ways Forward Berlin, June 14-16, 2015 A conference jointly organized by Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik (SWP), Berlin and Konrad-Adenauer -Stiftung (KAS), Berlin Discussion Paper Do Not Cite or Quote without Author’s Permission Session II: Maritime Security Renato Cruz de Castro De La Salle University Manila The Philippines Discovers its Maritime Domain: Aquino Administration’s Shift in Strategic Focus from Internal to Maritime Security Renato Cruz de Castro Abstract: This paper examines the strategic shift in the Philippines’ defense policy from internal to maritime security. With China’s maritime expansion in the South China Sea, the Philippine government has eased up its counter-insurgency/counter- terrorism campaign and has vigorously pursued instead the modernization of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) particularly developing the deterrence capability of the Philippine Navy (PN). However, slow-paced and hampered by scant resources, the naval build-up will hardly deter China’s encroachment on the Philippine maritime territory. Faced with this predicament, the Philippines has resorted to forging new security partnership with the United States and Japan, two major naval powers in East Asia. The paper concludes that maritime security will remain the Philippines’ priority concern way into the third decade of the 21st century. Introduction During Gloria Macapagal Arroyo’s nine-year presidency, the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) concentrated its efforts, and resources on neutralizing the various insurgent movements in the country. In 2009, however, the Arroyo Administration was suddenly confronted with the ubiquitous Chinese naval presence in Philippine territorial waters and increasing assertiveness in the South China Sea dispute.

  • Explanatory Note
    THIRTEENTH CONGRESS OF THE REPUBLIC) OF THE PHILIPPINES 1 5 MAR -3 P4 121 FIRST REGULAR SESSION 1 Introduced by Senator Magsaysay, Jr. EXPLANATORY NOTE A strong Republic in order for it to remain strong, effective and democratic must have strong checks and balances not only in the bureaucracy, but also in the Armed Services as well. An Armed Forces dominated by one culture of officers coming from one military institution opens itself to manipulations and easy commitment of acts inimical to national security, the negative aspects of common bonds and cultures among officers. It should be policy of the State to have multiple sources of commission of officers in the AFP. No one group of officers from a particular source of commission be allowed to dominate the AFP. Thus there is a necessity to establish separate military academies of the major services of the AFP. Officers from varied sources of commission will enhance checks and balances in the AFP. The negative aspect of cultural bonding among alumni of the same institution will be lessened and officers will have a healthy professional competition to rise up to higher ranks. This bill proposes the establishment of a Philippine Naval Academy (PNA) to train Naval Officers of the AFP. The instruction will be a 2-year program, basing from the minimum General College Education requirements as established by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). The present facilities, equipment, applicable areas, faculty and administrative personnel of the Philippine Naval Training Command shall be absorbed by the PNA. The PNA shall establish a strong working relationship for specific academic as well as training facilities with the Philippine Merchant Marine Academy and other colleges, universities and institutions.

  • Humanitarian Civil-Military Coordination in Emergencies: Towards a Predictable Model Foreword
    REGIONAL CONSULTATIVE GROUP HUMANITARIAN CIVIL-MILITARY COORDINATION FOR ASIA AND THE PACIFIC HUMANITARIAN CIVIL-MILITARY COORDINATION IN EMERGENCIES: TOWARDS A PREDICTABLE MODEL FOREWORD The Regional Consultative Group (RCG) on Humanitarian Civil-Military Coordination for Asia and the Pacific was formed in 2014 to act as a multi-stakeholder, regional forum that brings together humanitarian, civilian and military actors involved in planning for and responding to disasters in the region. The RCG was formed to discuss response preparedness planning, with a focus on the coordination of operational planning between civilian and military actors in priority countries in the region–Bangladesh, Nepal, Indonesia, Myanmar and the Philippines. It also serves to facilitate the exchange of information and innovative ideas to enable well-coordinated and needs-based effective disaster responses, and strengthen linkages with other relevant platforms with an emphasis on the relationship with Regional Organizations and the Global Consultative Group on Humanitarian Civil-Military Coordination. One of the first recommendations that emerged from the RCG was to develop a common understanding and enhance the predictability of the civil-military coordination mechanisms, and their respective functions, during a response. Humanitarian Civil-Military Coordination in Disaster Response: Towards a Predictable Model outlines key civil-military coordination mechanisms and how these are activated during disaster response in line with global and regional frameworks and guidance. With five different country-focused chapters for each of the priority countries, this publication will enhance knowledge and understanding of the unique context for humanitarian civil-military coordination in the Asia region, further strengthening linkages between global, regional and national guidance and structures for civil-military coordination in disaster response.
