GUILLERMO NAKAR, Lucena

In
a report released Monday to the PNA here, Solcom commander Lt. Gen. Caesar
Ronnie F. Ordoyo named the New People’s Army member as Dennis Callao also known
as "Rolex", a prominent leader in the underground movement.
Lt.
Gen. Ordoyo said Callao
He
divulged that the rebel voluntarily surrendered without firearms to the
Bayanihan Team of the 2nd Infantry Battalion last week at Sitio Gayong,
Barangay Sto. Niño, Bacon District in Sorsogon.
Ordoyo
explained that under the Comprehensive Local Integration Program (CLIP) of the
Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (OPAPP), the rebel
returnee is entitled to receive Php50,000 as livelihood assistance and
Php15,000 for immediate assistance.
Lt.
Ordoyo expressed the increasing number of surrenderees only manifests the
general sentiments of the rebels who now prefer safe and peaceful community and
living normal lives.
“The
continuing surrender of the rebels illustrates their organization has gradually
disintegrated and has weakened the communist movement due to the members’
aspirations to live in peace and reject violence,” Lt. Gen. Ordoyo remarked.
He
sounded his call on the dissidents and rebel groups to return to the
government’s fold, lead peaceful lives and support the country’s growth and
development efforts.
