Due to improving peace and order conditions, the City of
Butuan and the Province of Agusan del Norte were declared
"Conflict-Manageable and Ready for Further Development" on Sunday.
The declaration, which took place at the Provincial Training
Center
Agusan del Norte Province and Butuan City serve as the
primary gateway for business and tourism activity for the CARAGA Region, said
4th Infantry Division public affairs office chief Capt. Joe Patrick Martinez.
With infrastructure development in place, the city and
province are in a position to propel growth in the region.
In the past, lawless armed groups like the New People’s Army
remnants had been sabotaging economic growth in the region.
“This ceremony is our seal of our commitment of working
together to ensure a better environment for growth for the people of this
province. Nevertheless, our journey has just begun. Let us continue on our
advocacy to sustain the gains of our convergence. The armed struggle is
irrelevant, now that the people are given ample opportunity to take part in
socioeconomic development,” said Eastern Mindanao Commandhead Lt. Gen. Leonardo
Rey Guerrero.
