Visaya says change will be felt in drive vs crime, terror

LT. GEN. Ricardo Visaya, newly-installed Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Chief of Staff, said change would be felt by the way the military conduct internal security and territorial defense operations and the manner it will assist law enforcement agencies in their fight against terrorism, drugs, and criminalities.

At the same time, while promising to be hard on terrorists and criminals, Visaya said the AFP will continue to embark on a people-centered approach as it involves various rebel factions in the new government’s aim towards nation building.
