About 68% of Filipinos agree with the plan to pursue the reinstitutionalization of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) for those who are at least 18 years old, according to the results of the OCTA Research survey released on Tuesday, Jan. 17.
OCTA Research Tugon ng Masa Survey conducted from Oct. 23 to 27, 2022 with 1,200 adult respondents nationwide.
In this survey, the respondents were asked: “Sumasang-ayon ka ba sa plano na gawing mandatory ang Reserve Officers’ Training Corps para sa mga Pilipinong 18 taong gulang pataas? ” Moreover, 82 percent of Filipinos belonging to the socio-economic class ABC agree with the plan to make ROTC mandatory for Filipinos who are at least 18 years old.
However, OCTA pointed out that disagreement on the issue is “quite high” among 45-to-54-year-old Filipinos and over 75-year-olds, each with 39 percent.
