Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) chief-of-staff Gen. Gregorio Pio Catapang ordered his brigade commanders to do everything they can to normalize and make development ready the remaining 31 provinces with some rebel presence.
“I hope that after this workshop, when you start implementing your stratified list of specific activities, we can already expect the normalization and declaration as peaceful and ready for development the remaining 31 provinces by the first semester of 2015,” Catapang said.
The AFP chief said that this can be achieved through the conduct of intensified security operations.
He made this statement during the two-day Internal Security Operations Activities Stratification Workshop held at the AFP Commissioned Officers Club in
“In order to sustain our gains, we need to revisit the strategic-tactical alignment in the implementation of the IPSP 'Bayanihan' for us to achieve its objectives,” he added.
The two-day workshop aims to identify gaps and realign activities and identify challenges in line with the AFP’s accomplishments in addressing insurgency.
The participants were tasked to identify priority activities in line with the strategic objectives mainly focused military operations, stakeholder engagements and "Bayanihan" team activities.
“We can effectively cascade the IPSP Bayanihan down the line by laying out specific, tangible and doable activities at each level. By coming up with a stratified list of activities, our units will gain more appreciation on their contribution to the success of the plan,” Catapang concluded.
