    Study Notes

    History of National Service Training Program (NSTP)

    • Service involves contributing to a cause without expecting anything in return, emphasized in NSTP.
    • NSTP encompasses military training via Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) and non-military service through Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS) and Literacy Training Service (LTS).
    • Commonwealth Act No. 1, known as the "National Defense Act," established in 1935, mandated two years of military training for male college students in the Philippines.
    • On August 8, 1980, Presidential Decree No. 1706 introduced compulsory national service for all citizens, forming three components: CWTS, Law Enforcement Service (LES), and Military Service (MS).
    • The implementation of the National Service Law was suspended in 1986, resulting in the Basic ROTC program for tertiary students returning to focus on military training.
    • In 1991, ROTC was expanded, allowing students to take military subjects in the first year and choose further service options in the second year.
    • The 2001 discovery of Mark Welson Chua's body, a victim of illegal ROTC practices, sparked protests that led to calls for reform of the ROTC program.
    • Following these events, NSTP was established under Republic Act No. 9163 on January 23, 2002, incorporating CWTS, LTS, and ROTC components.
