The Maguindanao-based 6th Infantry Division announced that
it has turned over a newly-constructed mosque to Tukanalipao town Tuesday, well
in time for the month-long Rahmadan observance which starts June 17.
The military unit was aided in this construction project by
the Maguindanao provincial government and Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
"The construction of the mosque was jointly ventured by
the three agencies who worked day and night in order to finish the project
before the Rahmadan starts," 6th Infantry Division spokesperson Capt.
Jo-ann Petinglay said.
ARMM Gov. Mujiv S. Hataman was pleased to be a part of a
program which he believes is the start of the influx of infrastructure projects
in the area.
While Maguindanao Gov. Esmael Mangudadatu expressed
gratitude for the opportunity of becoming part of this worthwhile initiative.
He said that it is always his priority to support and fund
projects that will benefit the people.
And 6th Infantry Division commander Major Gen. Edmundo R.
Pangilinan was also pleased with the successful completion of the mosque.
He pledged to continue working for peace and progress in the
region in partnership with other stakeholders. It was indeed a very promising
day which brought new light to the lives of the people from Tukanalipao.
"It is hoped that the scars of the wounds created by an
unfortunate incident that occurred in the area five months ago will totally be
healed so that the people of Tukanalipao can celebrate Rahmadan more meaningful
and peacefully," Petinglay concluded.
