SAN FERNANDO CITY, La Union, Aug. 11 (PIA) - - A poster showcasing the significance of peace for countrywide development bagged the first place of the maiden poster making contest spearheaded through the Enhanced - Comprehensive Livelihood Integration Program (E-CLIP) cluster of the Regional Task Force – Ending Local Communist Armed Conflict (RTF-ELCAC) of Region 1.
The contest administered by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) in Region 1 gathered a total of 15 entries submitted by the local artists from the provinces of Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union, and Pangasinan.
DILG Region 1 Director James F. Fadrilan said that the poster-making contest on E-CLIP was launched to entice the New People’s Army (NPA) rebels to go back to the government.
“We initiated the conduct of the first poster making contest through the E-CLIP cluster of the RTF-ELCAC to effectively convey the sincerity of the national government on welcoming the return of the NPA rebels to the fold of law for achieving the lasting peace and development,” said Fadrilan.
The poster making contest was anchored on a theme: Nag-iisang adhikain para sa makabuluhan at progresibong kapayapaan.
“This contest is also an avenue to convey the message of the national government in its pursuit for genuine reconciliation and nation building,” he added.
The first place poster is a masterpiece of Christine Joy D. Visco, a fine arts student at the University of Northern Philippines (UNP) and resident of Laoag City, Ilocos Norte.
Visco’s poster represents the CPP-NPA-NDF and the Philippine government restoring allegiance for peace building. The dove symbolizes peace while the scale represents equality and balance of both for the rebels and the Philippine government for peacebuilding and whole of nation progress.
Other winners are the poster-entry of Joven Aaron D. Miguel of San Fernando City, La Union – second place; and the poster of Alvin P. Cendaña from Mangaldan, Pangasinan – third place.
