In line with its efforts to comply with Human Rights (HR)
and International Humanitarian Law (IHL), officers and men of the Cagayan De
Oro City-based 4th Infantry Division attended a symposium dedicated to the
above-mentioned subjects on Wednesday.
The symposium, sponsored by the Commission on Human Rights
Region 10, is part of the celebration of Human Rights Day, which takes place on
Dec. 10 worldwide, said 4th Infantry Division spokesperson Capt. Joe Patrick
Martinez.
Dr. Edwin P. Solis, Division Manager-Designate, CHR Regional
Office 10, was the guest speaker in the event which started at 9 a.m.
Solis reiterated the provisions of HR and IHL that will help
each soldier better serve the people.
“You are the protector of every Filipino, it is expected
that you exemplify the character and image that is truly loved by the people.
Provisions on Human Rights should already be part of your system for you to
better serve every Filipino people,” Solis said.
The symposium is just one of the many activities initiated
by the 4th Infantry Division for the week-long celebration of the National
Human Rights Consciousness Week with the theme: “Karapatang Pantao: Igalang,
Ipagtanggol, Isakatuparan."
