COTABATO CITY – North Cotabato Governor Nancy Catamco has assured government security forces of her administration's support to various peace and development initiatives in the province.
During the first Provincial Peace and Order Council (PPOC) meeting that she presided Monday, Catamco said the provincial government will focus on peace programs so that it can effectively deliver services to the people.
Catamco also assured government security sectors that the capitol will actively take a lead role in the national government's peace and development programs.
The governor also expressed elation over the commitment showed by frontline agencies, the police, military, and other stakeholders in maintaining peace and order in North Cotabato.
She said the new administration will reciprocate the security sector's commitment to peace, adding: “Your attendance here is a clear manifestation that we are one in advocating peace in our beloved province."
“Your commitment in keeping your area of responsibility safe from terrorism, insurgency and man-made calamities was indeed the most serious and noble job,” she added.
Catamco, the first governor to hail from an Indigenous People community, said she will also push for diplomatic approach in conflict resolution and that the "use of force must be the last option."
She assured all local officials, partners, and other stakeholders that her administration will not only be “working behind” but instead will "work closely with everyone in all peace efforts."
