CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY -- Per initiative of the Provincial Government of Misamis Oriental, 16 of its 24 cities and municipalities and 200 out of 424 barangays have rejected the Communist Party of the Philippines - New People's Army (CPP-NPA) and declared the communist terrorist group and its affiliated organizations "persona-non-grata.”
The 16 Municipal and City Local Government Units (LGUs) include: Alubijid, Balingasag, Binuangan, Claveria, El Salvador City, Initao, Jasaan, Lagonglong, Libertad, Magsaysay, Manticao, Medina, Opol, Tagoloan, Talisayan, and Laguindingan.
The denunciation came as President Duterte renewed his call for the entire citizenry to end the local communist instigated armed conflict that has stymied economic growth for the past 50 years.
The LGUs are fed up with the incessant atrocities perpetrated by the CPP-NPA against civilians and destruction of civilian properties.
Despite the call of the Regional Peace and Order Council - X to stop attacking civilians and civilian compounds, recently an NPA spokesperson even bragged over radio stations their attack of an undefended compound of Minergy Corporation in Misamis Oriental taking with them company properties.
The local chief executives are one in rejecting the entry of CPP-NPA terrorists in their respective localities for they are the ones creating instability that drives away potential investors. (DILG MisOr)
