OPAPP, DTI distribute Mobile Rice Mill Equipment to MILF Decommissioned MILF Combatants
Sultan, Kudarat, Maguindanao—The Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (OPAPP) and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) distributed Thursday thirty (30) initial units of Mobile Rice Mill Equipment to Decommissioned MILF Combatants at Camp Darapanan, Sultan Kudarat, Maguindanao.The equipment is part of the joint socio-economic development project between OPAPP and the Department of Trade and Industry.
According
to a report by Bangsamoro Information Office-BARMM, Friday, the
project, amounting to Php30-Million, will benefit the identified major
camps of the MILF combatants, their families, and immediate relatives.
OPAPP
and DTI are the funding and implementing agencies of the said
socio-economic project called Inter Cabinet Cluster Mechanism on
Normalization – Peaceful Return and Aggressive Inclusion Social
Entrepreneurship (ICCMN-PRAISE).
The projected
fund was reflected on the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) both parties
agreed and signed last Sept. 11, 2020 that aims to promote the
meaningful implementation of the Annex on Normalization of the
Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB), the report also said.
Present
during the event were Minister for Trade, Investment, and Tourism Abu
Amri Taddik, Deputy Minister for Environment, Natural Resources and
Energy Akmad Ebrahim, DTI Undersecretary Abdulgani Macatoman, Ariel
Hernandez of ICCMN, Parliament Member Shahara Mastura, MILF combatants,
and other key dignitaries.
Taddik expressed his gratitude to the initiative of the National Government to fulfill its commitment under the CAB.
“This
project is one of the ways to integrate our former combatants into
[the] society by giving them sustainable livelihood that could improve
their way of life,” he said.
Meanwhile, Macatoman said more significant programs are set to benefit the Mujahideens (DCs) as phase two is approaching.
In
his message read by the MENRE deputy minister Ebrahim, Chief Minister
Ahod B. Ebrahim said the transition period is not just centered on
establishing the regional bureaucracy in the Bangsamoro region.
“The
other half of the process is the normalization track which aims to
transform our combatants as productive civilian members of the society
and reform their respective communities from decades-long of unrest and
conflict,” Ebrahim, who is also the MILF chairman, said.
