But The real issue here is SAFETY. How can an FSIS personnel be able to control traffic? I know for a fact that most of the personnel in these communication facilities flunked their atc subjects and does not qualify to be ATCs. Now you tell me, they'll be doing ATC work as well? VERY DANGEROUS! The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines should rethink this through.
Surely FIS people can not just immediately begin providing ATC service if their job title is changed?! You need to have the appropriate license and ratings first, and I can't imagine any CAA allowing provision of service without people having passed the proper training and received the ratings etc.
