We would like to assure the Filipino people that all possible negotiations are premised within the national governments established ideals of transparency, accountability and good governance, Gazmin said. The Philippines already acquired eighteen basic trainer aircraft from Alenia Aermacchi, an Italian company known for its design, production and support of military training aircraft. All eighteen units were delivered as of 2011. Opportunities for cooperation under the Public-Private Partners will be discussed for aircraft maintenance, shipbuilding or repair, and other defense materiel. "We constantly seek ways for the improvement of our capability to address the threats we face, including disasters and other non-conventional threats to national security, Gazmin said. We will carefully evaluate the procurement of defense materiel, taking in consideration the benefits to the country and the resources at hand.
