HISTORY OF Republic Act No. 9163

The Philippine government established the Republic Act 9163 on July 23, 2001. Since its
establishment, it has been recognized as the National Service Training Program or NSTP which aimed to
prepare students through civic education and defense preparedness. The year of its establishment was the
frontier of decades of searching for a single executive act that would fit the role of developing juvenile
awareness and social conduct. Prior to its publication, several pertinent laws had been passed with parallel
objectives. Commonwealth Act No. 1, or the "National Defense Act", was enacted by the National
Assembly of the Philippines on December 21, 1935. Male citizens of ages between 18 and 30 were
mandated to enter the military. As adherence, they underwent identical treatment with men who
deliberately incurred themselves to military occupation. By 1980, the Presidential Decree No. 1706,
otherwise known as the "National Service Law '', was signed on 8 August. Aside the military service, the
inclusion of all Filipinos to training made it relevant for civic welfare service, law enforcement service to
be considered. The well-known Reserve Officers Training Corps was established a bit recently with
Republic Act 7077, or the Citizen Armed Forces of the Philippines Reservist Act" on 27 June 1991. The
term "Citizen Soldiers" was coined in the article referring to citizens partaking in the said program. By the
time ROTC was absorbed by many universities and colleges, it took no longer than ten years to customize
its demesne and eventual evolution to NSTP.

OBJECTIVES OF Republic Act No. 9163

1. To assist in the disaster preparedness, mitigation, response, and rehabilitation programs.

2. To assist in promotion of civic welfare activities.

and defend our country.

2. What is your reflection after knowing the history and objectives of NSTP Law?
My insight regarding the The National Service Training Program (NSTP)
of the Philippines is that, this program is very powerful for individual students

NTPS itself aims to increase civic preparedness and awareness of defending

the country in young people by developing an ethic of devotion, nationalism,
and patriotism during learning and training in one of its program components.
