Boy Scouts of the Philippines, Iriga City Council Scouting The Boy Scouts of the Philippines (BSP) (Filipino: Mga Batang Lalaking Iskawt ng Pilipinas) is the national Scout organization of the Philippines.

Its mission is to imbue in the youth the love of God, country, and fellow men; to train young people to become responsible leaders; and to contribute in nation-building. The BSP was chartered under Commonwealth of the Philippines Act No. 111 on October 31, 1936.

nese businessmen and interest groups. The Boy Scouts of the Philippines began in 1923 with the establishment of the Philippine Council of the Boy Scouts of America, as an American possession at the time. The Philippines became an independent Scouting nation in 1936, with the transition of the Philippine Council into the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. In 1940, the Girl Scouts of the Philippines was founded. In 1959, the 10th World Scout Jamboree was held in Mount Makiling, Los Baños, Laguna, the first world Scout jamboree held in Asia. The current National President of the BSP is Jejomar Binay and its Secretary-General is Jose Rizal Pangilinan.
