From DWDD AFP Civil Relations Service Radio Website (Jan 29): FRUSTRATED | Nine (9) NPA members Yield to 26IB
TALACOGON, Agusan del Sur (DWDD) – Nine (9) NPA regulars and militia ng bayan (MB) members with their firearms submitted themselves to the 26th Infantry “Ever Onward” Battalion on January 28, 2018.
The Former Rebels (FR) gave themselves up due to the hardship they have been experiencing and the fear of being pursued by the Philippine Army troops. Five (5) of the FRs formerly belong to the Guerilla Front 88 operating in San Luis and La Paz while the four (4) others belonged to Guerilla Front 34 which is active in Loreto and Veruela areas. They brought along with them nine (9) Class A light weapons that includes five (5) assualt rifles, two (2) shotguns and two (2) handguns.
Aka “Wanted”, one of the surrenderees, related his miserable and dark experiences inside the underground movement. “nahadlok na kaayo me, kay daghan nang namatay sa among kauban sa mga sunod-sunod nga engkwentro tali sa 26IB, perteng gutoma ug hastang paita kay walay tarung kaon ug tulog sa bukid, kapoy na kaayo samtang ang among mga labaw sige ra ug mandu, walay maayong suporta sa among pamilya”, he stressed.
Undeniably, the effort of the San Luis and Loreto LGUs particularly the Municipal Peace and Order Council and Bayanihan Oversight and Advisory Committees of both municipalities have consistently put forth the offer of peace and development to their constituents, hence the positive turn out of the former rebels.
Colonel Andres C Centino, Commander of the Army’s 401st Infantry Brigade based in Brgy Awa, Prosperidad Agusan del Sur, lauded the commitment of the LGUs for the attainment of peace and development. “We will continue to intensify our collaboration with the different stakeholders especially to the Local Chief Executives to pave way for the realization of peaceful communities in Agusan del Sur”.
“Sa tanang miyembro sa walhong grupo nga gikapoy na, amo kamong gi-awhag nga magbalik na sa sabakan sa atong gobyerno aron makab-ot nato ang tinud-anay nga kausaban ug malahutayong kalambuan”, he added. 26IB CMO / MCAG

The newly activated 92nd IB is the last battalion numeric of all the battalions of the Philippine army for now, while the 1st IB was the first created army battalion, and is both assigned in 2ID.
Major General Rhoderick M Parayno, the Commander, 2ID presided the joint activation and change of command ceremony.
According to MGen Parayno, the activation of the 92nd IB was part of the Armed Forces of the Philippines program to strengthen its force. It is also one of the 10 battalions to be activated by the AFP in order to fully address the NPA terrorists in the country.
The newly activated battalion is now commanded by its first Commanding Officer, LtCol Christopher Diaz.
Meanwhile, on the Change of Command Ceremony of 1st IB, LtCol Jonathan S Manio assumed as the 40th Commanding Officer.
The Change of Command is a military tradition that represents a formal transfer of authority and responsibility for a unit from one commanding or flag officer to another. The passing of unit color from an outgoing commander to an incoming one ensures that the unit and its soldiers is never without official leadership, a continuation of trust, and also signifies an allegiance of soldiers to their unit’s commander.
MGen Parayno enjoins the two battalions and all Jungle Fighters that we each have a mission to undertake.
“Let’s give our best in our respective tasks. Our government and the Filipino people have given us a substantial increase in our pay, and an overwhelming trust and support. Let’s repay these with what we do best—a higher standard of discipline and professionalism. Let’s give them the service that they want and the service that they deserve. As true Jungle Fighters, this is natural to us”, he added. 2ID / MCAG

MILF: Chairman Jikiri urges his MNLF comrades to support BTC-Crafted BBL
Posted to the Moro Islamic Liberation Front Website (Jan 28): Chairman Jikiri urges his MNLF comrades to support BTC-Crafted BBL
PHOTO BY: Philippine Information Agency- Chairman Yusoph Jikiri
INDANAN, SULU- Yusoph Jikiri, Chairman of Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) urged his comrades in the MNLF to strongly support the enactment of the Bangsmoro Basic Law (BBL). He made the statement on January 23 in Barangay Pasil, in his hometown Indanan, Province of Sulu.
Chairman Jiriki told his comrades, “We, the leaders of the MNLF, and Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) signed an agreement in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia”.
However, Jikiri did not disclosed the agreement they signed with the MILF.
Chairman Jikiri said, the MILF treats us(MNLF) as their partners in achieving the Bangsamoro aspiration.
MNLF, and MILF are different organizations but they have common ideology; that is Islam, and have the same objectives, to achieve the Moro right to self-determination, peace, harmony among stakeholders and development of the region.
“The MNLF Mujaheedin in Sulu are happy to know that the MILF will not just share the products of the negotiations they entered into with the Government of the Philippines but eventually they will be strong partners in the implementation of the signed agreements between the government, and the two largest Moro Fronts, ‘ Jikiri added.
Chairman Jikiri admitted that not all residents of Sulu are in favor of the BBL because of the presence of spoilers of peace, and some traditional politicians who want to cling to power.
“But we will do something once a plebiscite is to be conducted for the BBL so that the proposed law will be accepted by our peace loving people of Sulu”.
Meanwhile, the MILF Political Committees in Sulu are anxious to welcome to Sulu Honorable Senator Migz Zubiri, Chair of the Senate Sub-Committee on BBL, and his delegation of lawmakers.
Zubiri and his party will conduct Public Hearing on BBL in BASULTA this coming February 8-11.
The MILF in Sulu are thankful to Senator Zubiri for filing, and sponsoring Senate Bill No. 1646, also known as the Bangsamoro Basic Law, the one crafted by the 21-Member Bangsamoro Transition Commission (BTC).
The Bangsamoro Mujaheedin in Sulu Archipelago are hopeful that the passage of BBL will end extremism, and brings about economic development once peace reigns in Mindanao, and the island provinces of Sulu, Basilan, and Tawi-Tawi.
“The passage of BBL by congress will redound to genuine, and development in Sulu, home to various armed groups, including private armies,” one officer of MILF Political Committee said.

INDANAN, SULU- Yusoph Jikiri, Chairman of Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) urged his comrades in the MNLF to strongly support the enactment of the Bangsmoro Basic Law (BBL). He made the statement on January 23 in Barangay Pasil, in his hometown Indanan, Province of Sulu.
Chairman Jiriki told his comrades, “We, the leaders of the MNLF, and Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) signed an agreement in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia”.
However, Jikiri did not disclosed the agreement they signed with the MILF.
Chairman Jikiri said, the MILF treats us(MNLF) as their partners in achieving the Bangsamoro aspiration.
MNLF, and MILF are different organizations but they have common ideology; that is Islam, and have the same objectives, to achieve the Moro right to self-determination, peace, harmony among stakeholders and development of the region.
“The MNLF Mujaheedin in Sulu are happy to know that the MILF will not just share the products of the negotiations they entered into with the Government of the Philippines but eventually they will be strong partners in the implementation of the signed agreements between the government, and the two largest Moro Fronts, ‘ Jikiri added.
Chairman Jikiri admitted that not all residents of Sulu are in favor of the BBL because of the presence of spoilers of peace, and some traditional politicians who want to cling to power.
“But we will do something once a plebiscite is to be conducted for the BBL so that the proposed law will be accepted by our peace loving people of Sulu”.
Meanwhile, the MILF Political Committees in Sulu are anxious to welcome to Sulu Honorable Senator Migz Zubiri, Chair of the Senate Sub-Committee on BBL, and his delegation of lawmakers.
Zubiri and his party will conduct Public Hearing on BBL in BASULTA this coming February 8-11.
The MILF in Sulu are thankful to Senator Zubiri for filing, and sponsoring Senate Bill No. 1646, also known as the Bangsamoro Basic Law, the one crafted by the 21-Member Bangsamoro Transition Commission (BTC).
