Kalinaw News: TF Gensan’s Gift Giving to 13 Former Rebels

Posted to Kalinaw News (Jan 20, 2021): TF Gensan’s Gift Giving to 13 Former Rebels



CAMP SIONGCO, Maguindanao – The Task Force Gensan together with the Local Government Unit of General Santos City facilitated the “Task Force Gift Giving” to thirteen Rebel Returnees held at the Multi-Purpose Hall, Task Force Gensan on January 14, 2021.

It was attended by the officers and enlisted personnel of TF Gensan led by Task Force Commander Col. Galileo Goyena and General Santos City Mayor Ronnel Rivera. Food packs and livelihood aid were handed-over by the government to the former rebels.

“Labis akong nagpapasalamat sa ating gobyerno dahil sa tulong na binigay nila sa amin kahit kami ay kalaban ng estado noon. Ngayong nagbalik loob na kami sa gobyerno, malaki ang pasasalamat namin sa pagkakataong ito dahil makakapamuhay na kami ng normal sa aming komunidad,” said by one of the beneficiaries of the program.

The program was anchored to the flagship programs of the Duterte administration that seek to address social healing and national unity towards the higher objective of having just and lasting peace.

“Sa tulong ng Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program o E-CLIP ng national government pinapakita natin sa kanila (former rebels) na handa tayong tanggapin sila at tulungan para sa kanilang tuluyang pagbabago at pagtalikod sa kanilang armed struggle sa gobyerno na walang kahahantungang maganda,” said JTF-Gensan Commander, Col. Goyena.

He also urged other members of the former rebels to return to the folds of the government and surrender their firearms for their own benefit and in order to attain the government’s program.

It can be recalled that the TF Gensan became a part of 6th Infantry Division since May 2020 after an adjustment has been made in the areas of responsibility between the two higher commands, the EastMinCom and the WestMinCom.
