JOLO, Sulu – The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) will engage the people in solving the Abu Sayyaf problem here.
In his message, AFP Chief of Staff Gen.
Gregorio Pio P. Catapang Jr. said that he will direct the military
commanders to visit local officials and identify community problems with
them.
Sulu Vice Governor Sakur Tan said that
he will support the move to organize a peace and economic summit that
will be attended by different stakeholders including the civil-society
organizations.
"We will do our part by working closely
with different organizations. We also believe that we can solve these
problems by helping each other," said Tan.
Release all hostages
Asked by a school teacher about the
possibility of a ceasefire with the ASG, Catapang said: "That is
possible but they need to release all hostages first. Sayang ang buhay
ng mga batang iyan. Pagtulungan nating sila ay magbago,"said Catapang.
Catapang visited Sulu Provincial Capitol
at 10:00am to hear the issues directly from the people who attended the
General Assembly organized by Gov. Sakur Tan II.
The younger Tan was represented by his father, Vice Gov Sakur Tan I.
