From the Bohol Standard (Sep 30): Lifting Bohol out of poverty list, Gov. Rico’s defining moment
Rep. Erico B. Aumentado bared that his winning moments as governor for 9 years
were “moving out Bohol from Club 20, the 20 poorest provinces of the
Philippines, and ending the over four decades of communist insurgency therein”.... In the anti- insurgency front, Col. Allan Luga, then 802nd Brigade commander,
declared that the 4 communist fronts in Bohol were being dismantled in 2009.
Consequently, Maj. Gen. Arthur Tabaquero, 8th Infantry Division commanding
general, and P/Chief Supt. Lani-O Nerez, PNP Central Visayas commander, with
then Defense Sec. Norberto Gonzales officially declared Bohol as insurgency free
on February 11, 2010 during the inauguration of the rebel returnees’ Bayanihan
Center, a joint project of the provincial government, the Presidential
Management Staff and OPAPP in Remedios, Danao.
