The program gathered almost 1,500 former communist terrorist group (CTG) leaders and members all over Davao Region to show unity with the government in the quest to end the 53 years of communist insurgency in Southern Mindanao.

National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict Spokesperson Undersecretary Lorraine Badoy in her message thanked the peace champions for uniting with the government in the fight against insurgency.

“Marami ng namulat sa ating mga kababayan, isang isipang nabuksan na ay hindi na pwedeng sumarado ulit, kahit sino ang uupo na pangulo, tuloy-tuloy ang laban na ito at hindi na babalik ang CPP-NPA-NDF, pero kayo ang pinakatotoong laban dito,” Usec Badoy added.

With more than a thousand peace champions joining the peace rally, MGen Mempin remains optimistic and confident that insurgency problem will be eradicated in the area of 10ID before President Duterte’s term ends.

“This is a show of strength, dedication, and willingness for the awoken people, for five decades, these people became the milking cows of the CPP-NPA-NDF for their selfish agenda that is to overthrow the existing government. This event marks the start of a new era for Southern Mindanao, with the people’s support, the CTG was unable to conduct its anniversary in our area of responsibility, MGen Mempin added.

The peace rally was organized by Sentrong Alyansa ng mga Mamamayan Para sa Bayan in partnership with the local government units of Davao De Oro, Davao City and Task Force Balik-Loob.
