BAGUIO CITY – In order to date this year’s top graduating cadet of the Philippine Military Academy, the father of Cadet First Class Krystlenn Ivany Quemado said prospective suitors would need to fill out a 50-100 page permission form.
It was introduced partly as a joke by Army Col. Nicasio Quemado Jr. when Cadet Quemado and her older sister were in their teens, said mother Loveleih Quemado, who attended PMA’s first in-person commencement exercises today, Sunday (May 15), since the coronavirus pandemic broke out in 2020.

“The form says permission to date my daughter. Do you have a car? What’s your salary?… No one returned the forms,” she said laughing.

Mrs Quemado is the Dean of Arts and Sciences of Notre Dame of Marbel University, where Cadet Quemado studied.
“But I am not worried,” she said. Mrs. Quemado said she and Col. Quemado taught their four children “to act responsibly.”
