Presidential Adviser on Peace Process Teresita Quintos Deles expressed hope and faith in achieving more milestones in the peace process in 2015.
In a statement issued by OPAPP, Deles was quoted as saying that the Rebolusyonaryong Partido ng Manggagawa- Pilipinas- Revolutionary Proletarian Army-Alex Boncayao Brigade, a splinter group of the New People’s Army, is set to sign a closure agreement with the government, and, through the party-list Abang Lingkod, has chosen to take the road to peace by pursuing political and social change without the use of arms.
The RPM-RPA-ABB Tabara-Paduano Group is now known as Kapatiran, which is a requirement to transform itself into a legitimate socio economic organization.
“This 2015 will not be an easy year. But definitely like 2014, it can be full of rewards. It can be full of high points and milestones." Deles said in the statement.
She expressed hopefulness for positive strides in all the peace tables handled by OPAPP, including the resumption of peace talks of the government with the Communist Party of the Philippines/New People’s Army/National Democratic Front.
“Of course, we would like that we are able to move this (peace table with the CPP/NPA/NDF) substantially (before the end of the PNoy administration); that this internal armed conflict (reach the possibility of a political settlement),” Deles said.
“We don’t want (the) problem of internal armed conflict to remain a major thing that has to be managed or resolved by the next administration,” she said.
