These personalities are now added to the snowballing number of former rebels who were encouraged to return to the folds of the law and to live peacefully with their families instead of hiding in the mountains.
With the PTF-ELCAC of Davao Oriental, under the Executive Order No. 70 of President Duterte, different programs from local government agencies are set to provide services for these former rebels which greatly hopes to ending the five-decade insurgency.
