Acting Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Chief of Staff
Lt. General Glorioso Miranda visited the troops of Eastern Mindanao Command
(Eastmincom) here on Thursday, days after he assumed the position after the
retirement of former AFP Chief of Staff General Hernando Iriberri on Friday
last week.
Miranda, a member of the Philippine Military Academy Class
of 1983, served as the vice chief-of-staff of the AFP before replacing Iriberri
to the position.
During his visit, he was accompanied by Army Chief Lt.
General Eduardo Año and was received by Eastmincom commander Lt. General Rey
Leonardo Guerrero.
"Let us remain apolitical and create an environment
that will allow the people to choose our leaders freely without intimidation,”
Miranda said in his message to Eastmincom as the May 2016 election is fast
approaching.
Miranda also called on Eastmincom to continue the “Bayanihan
spirit” that has proven to be instrumental in the support of the delivery of
basic government services especially to the far-flung villages in eastern Mindanao .
"Continue the teamwork and harmony of our efforts with
other stakeholders to win the peace,” he added.
Miranda was the former commander of Task Force Gen San in General Santos City
and commander of 1002nd brigade of the Army in Malungon, Sarangani province.
Prior to his appointment as vice-chief-of staff of the AFP,
Miranda also served as commander of the Northern Luzon command and at the
Headquarters Service Command of the AFP in Camp
Aguinaldo in Quezon City .
