ANSF Expansion.

The case for increase in the ANA and ANP to reach 171,600 and 134,000 personnel by October 2011 remains strong. The 300,000 numbers would be necessary in case any transfer of security responsibility is envisaged in the country. However increasing the levels by approximately 60,000 to 70,000 within a period of a year and a half appears too optimistic and needs a review. With approximately 30 – 40 percent of the ANA soldiers not opting for extension of their term of five years, the level of increase in strength has to be much higher each year.
