BALIGUIAN, Zamboanga del Norte, Jan 15 (PIA) - - - More indigenous peoples’ (IP) communities in the province are taking a stand against communist terrorist groups.
In a Gukom Tribal Leaders forum held recently, some 44 tribal leaders of the Subanen tribe from the towns of Gutalac, Baliguian and Siocon convened to discuss initiatives in thwarting communist terrorist groups activities in their ancestral domain.
A total of 70 IPs attended the activity and pledged their support to the government in ending local communist armed conflict through signing a commitment.
The Tribal Leaders Council came up with resolutions seeking the assistance of various government agencies for livelihood and development which they submitted to the Regional Task Force (RTF)-ELCAC.
It can be recalled that the Subanen tribe had formed an IP Federation as a show of support to the government’s campaign in the implementation of President Rodrigo Duterte’s Executive Order no. 70 emphasizing a whole nation approach, convergence of the various government line agencies in addressing local communist armed conflict.
Presently, the group has about 3,000 IP members all over the region and neighboring provinces. (EDT/PIA9-Zamboanga del Norte)
