Anyone who speaks Tagalog, what does this mean ?

Guessing they’re using toothbrushing as a vehicle for training kids how to do routines?

more like how to "follow orders."

And then the Secretary of Education promises its clear connection to a "National Culture for Peace."

Here's a quick translation:

...We are still doing this today. And once we are ready, we are going to consult with all partners and stakeholders. And then once it’s ready, we will present to all. The mandatory toothbrush drill is one of the components that we want to become part of our National Culture for Peace. We’ll start teaching our Kindergarten children from there, on how they should learn to follow drills and learn to follow orders.
