Philippino soldiers can «text-a-complaint»

Filipino soldiers can now be assured that someone would be there to attend to their grievances: a presidential adviser has been appointed to oversee the implementation of the recommendations of the Feliciano Commission, which investigated the July 27 Oakwood mutiny, reports abs-cbnnews.

"Appointed Carolina Hernandez said she will establish a “text-a-complaint” brigade for soldiers to inform her office of their problems in the service and corruption-related issues in the military".

“We need to feel the pulse of the soldiers in the field and consult with them. They could inform us of the problems or dishonesty by their superiors they are encountering and keep their anonymity by just texting us,” Hernandez said.
