GABRIEL, MSE  Lesson 1.1 NSTP Orientation and Its Physical Organization The Ilocos Sur Polytechnic State College (ISPSC) aims at the empowerment of the youth by providing education grounded on academic excellence and strength of character. Students are expected to develop the passion of volunteerism and upholds the reinforcement of time-honored values learned in school and at home directed towards the development of a strong moral fiber that will contribute to his /her personal well-being as well as that of the members of the society. ISPSC continues to enhance their curriculum in training the students to become more responsible citizens who could greatly contribute to the general welfare of the country. It utilizes the students’ talents and technical expertise in assisting the community’s development. The program is constantly changing and 1. To discuss the history of the adjusting to the needs of the students and the community. establishment of NSTP 2. To explain the significance of the It is clearly asserts that the 1935 Constitution of NSTP the Philippines which the prime duty of the state is to 3. To create awareness on the safeguard the common welfare of its citizens. “The welfare importance of the program of the people is the primordial reason for the existence of a state hence; government service is a public trust, the so-called distributive justice”. On the other hand, every citizen has the duty to fulfill his/her responsibility in the achievement of progress and development through his/her cooperation and active participation in the affairs and activities of the state – to serve the state in times of emergency as stated in the constitution (the so-called legal justice). As a preparation for this noble responsibility, the 1935 Constitution require male and female students to take Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) aimed to train, discipline and prepare them responsive citizens. In the 1987 Constitution however, ROTC for female students was voluntary. The smooth implementation of ROTC was disrupted by questions arising from moral degradation and unscrupulous practices by people charge to supervise and implement the subject. In the late 1990’s the problem of ROTC’s relevance regarding its objective and purpose was evident. Corruption, exploitation, and devious practices were rampant until its constitutionality was put to a test or question. This paved the way to the enactment of the Republic Act 9163 otherwise known as the National Service Training Program (NSTP) Act of 2001. Recognizing the youth’s significant role in the task of nation-building, the state shall promote civic consciousness among them and shall develop their physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual and social well-being. It shall inculcate the values of patriotism, nationalism, and advance their involvement in public and civic affairs. Page | 17 Course Code: NSTP 1 Descriptive Title: LTS/CWTS/ROTC Instructor: EUGENE D. GABRIEL, MSE  In pursuits of these goals, the youth as the most valuable resource of the nation, shall be motivated, trained, organized and mobilized in military training, literacy, civic welfare and other similar endeavors in the service of the nation. To attain this goal, the NSTP was made a part of the curriculum. Tertiary students, male and female of any baccalaureate degree course or at least two (2) years technical-vocational courses in public and private educational institutions are required to complete one (1) of the NSTP components as requisite for graduation. ROTC which was originally mandatory was made optional and voluntary. Under this program, students are given the freedom to choose from among the three (3) program components of the National Service Training Program namely: a) Reserved Officers’ Training Corps b) Literacy Training Services, and c) Civic Welfare Training Services. Reserved Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) which provides military training to tertiary level students in order to motivate, train, organize and mobilize them for national defense preparedness. It aims to instill patriotism, moral virtues, respect for rights of civilians, and adherence to the Constitution, among others. Literacy Training Service (LTS) which is designed to train students and to become mentors of literacy and numeracy skills to school children, out-of-school youth, and other segment of the society in need of their service. Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS) which promotes activities contributory to the general welfare and betterment of life for the members of the community or the enhancement of its facilities, especially those devoted to improving health, education, environment, entrepreneurship, safety, recreation and morals of citizenry. FOR YOUR INFORMATION… LEGAL BASIS OF THE NSTP. The NSTP Law or RA 9163 also known as “An Act Establishing the National Service Training Program (NSTP) for tertiary level students, amending for the purpose Republic Act No. 7077 and Presidential Decree No. 1706, and for other purpose,” was enacted last January 2002 to amend the Expanded ROTC. This program aimed to enhance civic consciousness and defense preparedness in the youth by developing the ethics of service and patriotism while undergoing training in any of its three (3) program components, specifically designed to enhance the youth’s active contribution to the general welfare.

The constitution serves as the backbone of the country. Without it, the Law and Jurisdiction will not hold up and fall apart in no time, but they are meant to stand strong. The constitution is the embodiment of fundamental regulations and principles according to which the country, state, and its people are supposed to work. Constitution is the basic principles and laws of a nation, state, or social group that determine the powers and duties of the government and guarantee certain rights to the people in it. It is a written instrument embodying the rules of a political or social organization. (Merriam Webster Dictionary) A constitution serves as the fundamental law of land of the land. It is a character that creates a government and speaks for the entire people from whom it derives its claim to obedience. It establishes the basic framework and underlying principles of government. It refers to the “body of rules and principles in accordance with which 1.

It obligations of every citizen sets down the origin and purpose of the constitution and serves as an aid in its interpretation. The preamble of the 1987 Constitution is as follow: “We, the sovereign Filipino people, imploring the aid of Almighty God, in order to build a just and humane society and establish a government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote the common good, conserve and develop our patrimony, and secure to ourselves and our posterity the blessings of our democracy under the rule of law and a regime of truth, justice, freedom, love, equality, and peace, do ordain and promulgate this Constitution.” Section 1 of the Philippine Constitution provides that the following are the citizens of the Philippines: 1. Those who are citizens of the Philippines at the time of the adoption of the constitution; 2. Those whose fathers or mothers are citizens of the Philippines; 3. Those born before January 17, 1973 of Filipino mothers, who elect the Philippine citizenship upon reaching the age of majority; and 4. Those who are naturalized in accordance with law. For every right, there is always a corresponding responsibility. The following are important duties and obligations of every person who lives in a constitutional democracy like the Philippines. (dela Cruz, et.al, 2005) 1. To be loyal to the Republic 2. To defend the State 3. To contribute to the development and welfare of the State 4. To uphold the Constitution and obey the laws 5. To cooperate with duly constituted authorities 6.
