Officials of the Bangsamoro Development Agency (BDA)-Sulu and Tawi-Tawi Region (SulTa) headed by Regional Manager Donimar Ajiji and his staff made a courtesy call to officials of Sulu Province at its capitol on November 15, 2013 at Jolo, Sulu.
The purpose of the visit was to strengthen coordination between the BDA and the local government; and provide updates on BDA programs; other community programs and projects in the Sulu-Tawi-Tawi area. The group of Manager Ajiji was supposedly to meet Governor Abdulsdakur “Toto” A.Tan II but unfortunately the governor was out of town. Manager Ajiji instead met Vice Governor Abdulsakur Tan who welcomed them in his office.
In the course of their conversations, Vice Governor Tan asked what BDA is all about, its mandate and community undertakings? Manager Ajiji told Vice Gov. Tan that the BDA is a product of GPH-MILF peace process and was created through Executive Order No. 120 signed by President Benigno C. Aquino III. He also updated the vice governor on the current Tahderiyyah Curriculum Program funded by UNICEF & other lined-up projects for the provinces of Sulu and Tawi-Tawi.
The meeting was fruitful since Vice Governor Tan was thoroughly enlightened on the BDA programs and other undertakings. The vice governor assured the group of his support to BDA activities in his province. In return, Manager Ajiji expressed his gratitude for the support that the local government unit may extend to BDA.
Manager Ajiji assured the vice governor of BDA’s close coordination and strong partnership with the local government unit of Sulu on matters that shall redound to the general welfare of the people in the province.
The Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro (FAB) signed in October 15, 2012 at Malacanang Palace, Manila also stipulates the role of local government units in the proposed Bangsamoro new political entity.
