“There are many programs by the government for us to uplift the lives of everyone, be hard working and appreciate simple living to avoid deceptive ways of the CPP-NPA terrorists’ recruitment. Do not be a victim of terrorists and waste your life by joining them. Avail the government’s programs such as the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E CLIP) and live a peaceful life together with your family. We prefer to assist you to improve your lives and live better than assist you lifeless. Think of your family and loves ones.” Lt. Col. De Vera said.
