The Sajahatra Bangsamoro conducted its 2nd program launching with the turnover of agricultural farm supplies on September 23, 2014 at Barangay Sumbakil, Polomolok, South Cotabato. The Department of Agriculture-Region XII provided the farm supplies.
Barangay Sumbakil is one of the ten priority sites selected by the MILF for the Sajahatra Bangsamoro interventions. The delivery and turn-over of the farm supplies were the result of a Community Livelihood Needs Assessment Plan (CLNAP) undertaken by twenty-five community volunteers (CV’s).
The Department of Agriculture Region XII delivered 100 sacks of Certified Palay Seeds, 50 sacks of OPV Corn Seeds, certificate of turnover for 5 heads of Carabaos or water buffalo, certificate of turnover for 1 unit of power tiller, certificate of turnover for 1 unit of corn sheller and certificate of turnover for 1 unit for rice thresher.
The Department of Social and Development Welfare (DSWD-XII) paid 43 cash-for-work workers from the Municipality of Polomolok, South Cotabato and 203 cash-for-work workers from Municipality of Banga, South Cotabato.
The program launching and turnover were witnessed by more than 300 community residents. Luisito Muntalbo, OPAPP Assistant Secretary graced the occasion and witnessed the turnover and delivery of goods by DA XII.
He said: -“Sa kapayapaan lamang po natin patuloy at siguradong makakamit ang ating mga pangarap para sa ating sarili, sa ating anak at sa ating mga pamilya… At sana ang lahat po ng ating pamimigay ay maipagpapatuloy”.
Based on the facial expressions of the residents, the Sajahatra Bangsamoro can conclude that it has initially performed its mandate for the Bangasamoro community in that part of South Cotabato, which is predominantly populated by settlers.
Happy and fortunate for the farm supplies given to them, they are hoping for the dawn of sustainable peace and progress in Mindanao.

The word “sajahatra” means “blessings, prosperity and peace." The Sajahatra Bangsamoro program is intended by the government primarily to bring Philhealth services to MILF communities, as well scholarships from the Commission on Higher Education and the Technical Education Skills Development Authority, among other things. However, it is an inclusive program and will also be open to all Christians, Muslims and Lumad in conflict-affected areas.
