The Cebu-based Central Command on Wednesday is committed to bringing peace and development in the Visayas.
Major Gen. John Bonafos, Central Command head, said that they will do this by helping other stakeholders construct projects that will bring about progress in the region.
He particularly mentioned the continuous assistance they are extending to "Yolanda" survivors in the Visayas.
However, Bonafos reminded his ground commanders to be vigilant as security is still a top concern.
"We are focusing on the relief operations and the rehabilitation of the typhoon victims, but we are also looking at the security concerns of the victims and all of Visayas," the Central Command chief stressed.
Bonafos added that the fight against insurgency will always be a priority.
"We must remain as vigilant as possible," he added.
But Bonafos also stressed that commanders in the Visayas must continue to reach out for a peace dialogue with the communist rebels.
He also reminded that commanders must see to it that their actions continue to be in accordance with the rule of law and the International Humanitarian Law.
