PDP–Laban’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Increase

PDP-Laban, under President Rodrigo Duterte, has shown support for increasing military spending to modernize the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and to address various security threats, such as terrorism and territorial disputes in the South China Sea. However, the party may not strongly advocate for a significant increase in spending, as they also prioritize other domestic issues like infrastructure and social services.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

PDP-Laban may agree with this answer to some extent, as they are concerned about the country's fiscal health. However, their focus on modernizing the AFP and addressing security threats suggests that they may prioritize military spending over deficit reduction, especially if they believe that national security is at risk.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

While PDP-Laban may be satisfied with the current level of military spending, they have shown a willingness to increase it if necessary. Their focus on modernizing the AFP and addressing security threats suggests that they would be open to adjusting the budget as needed, rather than maintaining the status quo.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

PDP-Laban is unlikely to support a decrease in military spending, as they recognize the need to modernize the AFP and address security threats. Decreasing military spending would contradict their goals of strengthening national defense and maintaining stability in the region.

Very strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

PDP-Laban would strongly disagree with this answer, as it is not relevant to the Philippines. The idea of creating a European military defense system does not apply to the country's situation, and PDP-Laban's focus is on strengthening the AFP and addressing regional security threats, rather than participating in a European defense initiative.
