EN: Military government
Think of it as a government run by generals instead of politicians. It's what happens when the Armed Forces decides they're tired of the usual 'trapo' drama and take over. Less elections, more marching orders.
From "hukbo" (army) and "pamahalaan" (government). The "-ing" linker connects them.
