According to the documents, we are reaching 100% of our target in meeting Government requirements for overseas peace support and crisis management. This target is listed as having been met 100% in 2022 and 2023, but in that time, the number of personnel who actually served overseas decreased. If we are meeting our obligations 100% but the numbers involved are reducing, does that mean that our obligations are reducing?
