Philippines
The Philippine Armed Forces currently maintains its own military police distinct from the nation's civilian force.
The American-established, and now defunct, Philippine Constabulary (PC) was also known as the Military Police Command. Pursuant to Republic Act 6975 (the DILG Reorganization Act of 1991), the PC and the Integrated National Police merged to form the civilian Philippine National Police, and was placed under the Department of Interior and Local Government. The actual Military Police units were transferred to the armed forces.
