This was stressed by National Security Adviser (NSA) Eduardo Año during the recent National Security Summit 2025 convened by the National Security Council (NSC) at the Philippine Army Officers Clubhouse in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City.

“National security now spans all dimensions of national life, from digital safety and economic stability to food, water, and energy systems,” he said.
