Aquino to PAF: Filipinos are real commander-in-chief

MANILA, Philippines - Echoing his inaugural address, President Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III on Monday reminded the Philippine Air Force (PAF) that their real commander-in-chief is the Filipino people.

"Ang tutoong commander-in-chief nating lahat ay ang sambayanang Pilipino. Ang inyong chain-of-command ay hindi nagwawakas sa akin, dahil ako din ay may pananagutan sa sambayanan," Aquino said in a speech at the PAF's 63rd anniversary rites at Villamor Air Base in Pasay City.

The president said the PAF's subservience to the needs of the Filipino people is especially evident during times of calamity. He said the PAF's roles in territorial defense and disaster response are instrumental in bringing much needed progress to the economy.

Aquino cited the need to improve the PAF's readiness by upgrading its equipment and purchasing new air assets while also finishing the air force's on-base housing project.
