After presenting the five (5) of the most important features of the BBL, Director Sakili urged everyone in attendance to struggle by intensifying campaign for those that haven’t registered to register with COMELEC to be able to vote during the plebiscite. The Municipal Information Officer of Panglima Sugala was telling that they will encourage their people in Balimbimg to register in Bongao so that their votes shall be counted after the conduct of the plebiscite.
