The prediction, contained in bills 4122/2022-CR, 7073/2023-CR and 14305/2025-PE, contemplates a 50% increase in the monthly economic allowance received by military personnel and benefits more than 45 thousand young people who perform this service, strengthening their motivation, performance and commitment to serve the country.

Minister in committee
The current situation has reduced the capacity of troops to meet their basic needs and has affected recruitment and retention in the service. In fact, this was warned by Minister Carlos Diaz during his presentation in the working group.
Military Service not only represents the fulfillment of a constitutional duty, but also an opportunity for personal development for thousands of young Peruvians, who with vocation and commitment actively contribute to the security, defense and development of the country, noted the head of the sector in his presentation.
The measure will promote the processes of service to the country, contributing to consolidating military operational capabilities. In addition, it will allow you to progressively restore your purchasing power after more than a decade without updating.
This measure will contribute to strengthening the training, permanence and motivation of Military Service personnel, a key element to guarantee the operation of our Armed Forces and compliance with their constitutional positions, he noted.
The approved bill directly benefits military personnel stationed in regular troops, as well as from the first to the fifth reenlistment, raising the economic rate that they had been receiving, according to the service and time provided.
