Agriculture Secretary Francisco P. Tiu Laurel Jr. led the launch of KADIWA ng Pangulo store at the AFP headquarters in Camp Aguinaldo. AFP Chief of Staff General Romeo Brawner Jr. hosted the event on Friday, February 21, 2025.
The KADIWA ng Pangulo centers will be set up in select military camps across the country, offering the AFP personnel and residents in surrounding communities access to affordable, fresh agricultural products while simultaneously supporting local farmers and fisherfolk.
AFP Chief of Staff Brawner welcomed the DA’s effort to address the needs of Filipino soldiers and their families, particularly in providing fresh and affordable food. “If our country is food-secure—where supply is stable and prices are affordable—we will have a more stable nation,” he said. ### (photos by Jay Morales, DA-OSEC)
