From the Philippine News Agency (Oct 22): No let up on campaign vs
Reds
The military is always on alert to thwart any attacks to be staged by fragments
of the repelled communist group here identified as "Energen".
Major Agnes Ballines of the military central command informed Governor Edgar
Chatto that although Cebu and Bohol have already been declared insurgent-free
provinces, authorities must continue guarding the borders as remnants of the now
defunct Communist Party of the Philippines, New People's Army and National
Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF) have noticeably exerted efforts to redeem their
stronghold in the provinces.
"These communist armed groups are planning to deploy their very own and
hard-trained platoon code-named 'Energen' with the specific orders to get back
Cebu and Bohol," according to Ballines.
However, the Prosperity Teams (PRO-Teams) proved effective in blocking the
entry of "Energen", so far.
The PRO-Teams are considered effective "soldiers of progress, peace and
development" deployed by the provincial government under the Countryside
Development Program-Purok Power Movement (CPP-PPM) up to the grassroots in the
barangays.
