Inclusive Governance and Sustained Peace Initiatives Tackled in Dialogue with Maguindanao del Sur Leaders

CAMP SIONGCO, Awang, Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao del Norte — Local chief executives from Maguindanao del Sur engaged in a high-level dialogue today with BARMM Interim Chief Minister Abdulraof A. Macacua, the 6th Infantry (Kampilan) Division, and other key officials to discuss urgent concerns on peace, security, and inclusive development in the region.

Held at the headquarters of the 6ID, the meeting gathered 20 municipal mayors from Maguindanao del Sur, representatives from other municipalities, and the mayor of Kabuntalan, Maguindanao del Norte.

Maj. Mark Anthony P. Dimacali of OG7, 6ID, opened the forum by emphasizing support for the Municipal Task Force to End Local Armed Conflict (MTF-ELAC)—a collaborative, inclusive mechanism to address violent extremism and armed conflict.

Chief Minister Macacua affirmed the Bangsamoro Government's full support for local development, saying:
“This forum allows our leaders to speak directly about real issues—and from the BARMM leadership, I assure you: every concern will be addressed through proper and systematic governance.”

He also highlighted improved coordination between BARMM and LGUs, particularly in aligning efforts for peace and progress.

Brig. Gen. Edgar L. Catu, Commander of the 601st Infantry Brigade, called the dialogue a success, noting:
“We are extending our hands to those still on the other side. Join us in the path of peace and progress.”

Maj. Gen. Donald M. Gumiran, Commander of the 6ID and Joint Task Force Central (JTFC), delivered a strong message of partnership, stating:
“As municipal mayors, you have great influence. Ending local armed conflict will unlock the development potential of this region—and your leadership is key.”

Also present were senior officers from the 6ID and its brigades, including Col. Rommel S. Pagayon, Col. Anthony O. Samonte, Col. Rey Rico, Lt. Col. Roden R. Orbon, Maj. Dave Advincula, and others.

This continuing collaboration between civil and military leaders demonstrates a united front in building peace and inclusive growth across Maguindanao del Sur and the broader BARMM.

From Arms to Altar: 10ID Facilitates Mass Wedding for Former Rebels and Army Personnel

In a powerful testament to peace and transformation, the 60th Infantry (Mediator) Battalion under the 10th Infantry (Agila) Division of the Philippine Army hosted a Kasalan ng Bayan for 12 couples—composed of former rebels, CAFGU Active Auxiliaries, and 60IB organic personnel—at the Our Lady of Lourdes Chapel, Camp Gen. Manuel T. Yan Sr., Barangay Tuboran, Mawab, Davao de Oro on July 16, 2025.

Among the newlyweds were Diosimo Andales Catarata, 66, alias “Makatindog,” former Secretary of the NPA’s Guerilla Front 3, and Emy Ansag Camilo, 42, alias “Myka,” a former member of the same unit. Their shared journey from armed struggle to married life symbolized a new commitment to family, faith, and peace.

“Our decision to return to the government wasn’t only for our children’s needs, but also to fully surrender our love, our future, and our family to God,” the couple shared.

Agila Division Commander Maj. Gen. Allan Hambala lauded the newlyweds, saying:
“This is more than a wedding — it’s a celebration of transformation. Their courage to turn away from conflict and choose peace, love, and faith proves that reconciliation is possible, and that the future can be rewritten with hope.”

Other former rebels who also tied the knot included Christian Balatero Pastero alias “Khan” (former CO of NPA Guerilla Front 33), Maximo Junior Galos Catarata (former CO of Guerilla Front 3), and Ida Marie Montero alias “Mandy” (former Secretary of Sub-Regional Committee 5).

A reception followed at Camp Morgia in Barangay Doña Andrea, Asuncion, Davao del Norte, with local officials and military officers serving as sponsors—pledging their support to the couples’ new journey.

💍 Love, peace, and reconciliation triumphed on this day — a symbol of hope for a lasting peace in Mindanao.

703rd Infantry (Agila) Brigade Commemorates 9th Anniversary of Arbitral Ruling with Simultaneous Flag Raising Ceremony

In observance of the 9th anniversary of the 2016 Arbitral Tribunal ruling, the 703rd Infantry (Agila) Brigade of the Philippine Army, led by Colonel Arcadio S. Posada, Officer-in-Charge, conducted a Simultaneous Flag Raising Ceremony on July 14, 2025, at the Brigade Headquarters in Barangay Calaanan, Bongabon, Nueva Ecija.

The solemn ceremony reaffirmed the Armed Forces of the Philippines’ unwavering commitment to uphold the country’s sovereign rights—particularly in the West Philippine Sea—through peaceful and lawful means. Military personnel stood in formation alongside civilian partners and local stakeholders in a powerful show of unity and patriotism.

As part of the program, Col. Posada delivered the message of AFP Chief of Staff General Romeo S. Brawner Jr., who highlighted the enduring importance of the 2016 ruling and called for continued vigilance and unity:

“Today marks nine years since the historic ruling of the Permanent Court of Arbitration upheld our sovereign rights over our Exclusive Economic Zone in the West Philippine Sea. This victory is not just a legal triumph, but a symbol of our people's enduring resolve to safeguard our national integrity. Let us continue to stand as one—soldiers and civilians alike—in promoting peace, justice, and the rule of law. The AFP will remain committed to defending our maritime domain and ensuring a secure and stable future for all Filipinos.”

WestMinCom Joins Nation in Simultaneous Flag Raising Ceremony to Mark 9th Anniversary of the Arbitral Ruling

Camp Navarro, Calarian, Zamboanga City — The Western Mindanao Command (WestMinCom) of the Armed Forces of the Philippines held a simultaneous flag-raising ceremony today, July 14, 2025, at the Camp Navarro parade ground in solemn commemoration of the 9th anniversary of the 2016 Arbitral Tribunal Ruling on the West Philippine Sea.

Uniformed personnel stood in formation beside civilian employees proudly wearing Barong Tagalog and Filipiniana-inspired attire. Medical staff from the Camp Navarro General Hospital also joined the event in a unified display of patriotism.

The highlight of the ceremony was the reading of AFP Chief of Staff Gen. Romeo Brawner Jr.'s message, delivered by Col. Montano Almodovar, Chief of Unified Command Staff. Gen. Brawner emphasized the ruling as a monumental milestone in Philippine history and called on every Filipino to:

Alamin – Understand that the Philippines won a landmark legal victory in 2016, not through force, but through the rule of law. The ruling, which invalidated expansive and unlawful maritime claims, affirms the country’s rights within its Exclusive Economic Zone.

Ipaglaban – Defend what is rightfully ours. Gen. Brawner reminded AFP personnel that they are not just guarding territory—they are defending the rule of law and national dignity.

Suportahan – Support national efforts to uphold sovereignty. Gen. Brawner urged citizens, LGUs, and civil society to promote unity, counter misinformation, and back initiatives that protect Philippine sovereignty.

The WestMinCom’s participation in the nationwide activity reaffirms the AFP’s steadfast dedication to defending the nation’s maritime rights and inspiring a whole-of-nation approach in protecting Philippine sovereignty.
