SAN FERNANDO CITY, La Union – The Regional Peace and Order Council and Regional Development Council in Region 1 have declared the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army as “persona non grata” in the Ilocos provinces.
The declaration was announced last Friday at Hotel Ariana, Bauang, La Union during the joint first quarter meeting of the RPOC Region 1 and RDC Region 1 presided over by Major Gen. Lenard T. Agustin, commander of the Army 7th Infantry Division.
Members of the RPOC 1 and RDC 1 unanimously approved RPOC Resolution No. 1, Series of 2019, condemning the unlawful acts committed by the CPP-NPA and declaring them as persona non grata.
Agustin said the declaration is the first step in line with President Duterte’s Executive Order No. 70 which institutionalizes the whole of nation approach and created a national task force to end the local communist armed conflict and attain inclusive and sustainable peace.
The declaration was issued following the recent 50th founding anniversary of the NPA.
The region’s development situation, major programs, and concerns regarding the May 13 midterm elections were discussed in the meeting.
Aside from the insurgency updates and the elections, topics about the crime situation and anti-illegal drug operations were also discussed. (Freddie Lazaro)
