To make sure it can fulfill its peacekeeping and defense duties, the Armed Forces of the Philippines may want to adopt the 15-85 formula that the Philippine National Police adopted nearly 20 years ago.

Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson made the suggestion Tuesday at the budget hearing of the Defense Department at the Senate, noting this worked for the PNP when he headed it from 1999 to 2001.

“If I may suggest, ang ideal is 15-85,” Lacson said, referring to the ratio of personnel who should stay in headquarters and who should be deployed to the field.

Ilabas sa headquarters o kampo para mangalaga sa kapayapaan sa komunidad ang 85 sa bawa’t 100 sundalo ng Sandatahang Lakas ng Pilipinas.

Ito ang naging rekomendasyon ni Senador Panfilo Lacson kay Department of National Defense (DND) Secretary Delfin Lorenzana sa pagdinig na idinaos ng mambabatas sa panukalang badyet ng ahensiya.

Sa paliwanag ni Lacson, dating pinuno ng Philippine National Police (PNP), noong kanyang kapanahunan ay una na niyang ipinatupad ang sistemang ito at nagkaroon umano ng magandang resulta sa larangan ng peace and order.
