11 Former Rebels from Southern Tagalog Receive E-CLIP Benefits Date Released: 14 July 2020 Releasing Officer: DIR. ARSENIO R. ANDOLONG Chief, Public Affairs Service 11 Former Rebels from Southern Tagalog receive E-CLIP Benefits A new life awaits 11 former rebels (FRs), who were presented with benefits under the Enhanced Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP) at the 2nd Infantry Division (2ID) in Camp General Mateo Capinpin, Tanay, Rizal. Department of National Defense Undersecretary Reynaldo B. Mapagu, Task Force Balik-Loob Chairperson (C, TFBL), awarded checks worth Php 86,000 to each FR, as part of the programs under E- CLIP. The event was organized by MGEN Arnulfo Marcelo B Burgos Jr AFP, Commander of the 2ID. The FRs also enjoyed an opportunity to engage C,TFBL in fruitful dialogue, in which two of them expressed their desire to join the Armed Forces of the Philippines. They were then endorsed to MGN Burgos for special enlistment. USec. Mapagu also reminded FRs to avail of the other benefits of the program, like housing and medical benefits, as well as livelihood skills training, courtesy of member agencies like the National Housing Authority, Philhealth, Technical Education and Skills Development Authority, and the Department of Trade and Industry. Eight of these FRs are members of indigenous tribes in Rizal and Quezon, and will be receiving further assistance and benefits under the National Council for Indigenous People (NCIP). C,TFBL assured all FRs that TFBL will continue to work on ensuring that all former rebels will receive all the benefits under E-CLIP. USec. Mapagu also commended the 2ID for its setting the bar in implementing the E-CLIP in Luzon and Visayas when it welcomed 13 former rebels back into the folds of the law. Since then, a total of 604 FRs have already trusted the 2ID with their transition back into society. USec. Mapagu also urged the division to continue its good work, as well as assist in the fight against terrorism and insurgency. He expressed hope that all active members of the New People's Army (NPA) will avail of this opportunity for peace and return to the folds of the law. E-CLIP is the flagship program of the Duterte administration that seeks to effect social healing and national unity through a whole-of-nation approach, towards the higher objective of having just and lasting peace. It provides social equity to former members of the CPP-NPA-NDF and the Militia ng Bayan by devising a different modality of giving benefits and services to the FRs, in order to reintegrate them into mainstream society. These benefits do not serve as an end, but rather a means to aid the FRs in securing a foothold in restarting their lives. Task Force Balik-Loob is an interagency body headed that monitors and assesses the implementation of E-CLIP at the national level. Established pursuant to Administrative Order No. 10 of President Duterte, the TFBL includes the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), Office of the President, National Housing Authority (NHA) and the Office of the Presidential Adviser for Peace Process (OPAPP) as among its lead agencies, and other government agencies and instrumentalities as partner agencies that may be tapped to provide additional benefits and services to FRs. .

  • Part Ii Metro Manila and Its 200Km Radius Sphere
    PART II METRO MANILA AND ITS 200KM RADIUS SPHERE CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA 7.1 PHYSICAL PROFILE The area defined by a sphere of 200 km radius from Metro Manila is bordered on the northern part by portions of Region I and II, and for its greater part, by Region III. Region III, also known as the reconfigured Central Luzon Region due to the inclusion of the province of Aurora, has the largest contiguous lowland area in the country. Its total land area of 1.8 million hectares is 6.1 percent of the total land area in the country. Of all the regions in the country, it is closest to Metro Manila. The southern part of the sphere is bound by the provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon, all of which comprise Region IV-A, also known as CALABARZON. 7.1.1 Geomorphological Units The prevailing landforms in Central Luzon can be described as a large basin surrounded by mountain ranges on three sides. On its northern boundary, the Caraballo and Sierra Madre mountain ranges separate it from the provinces of Pangasinan and Nueva Vizcaya. In the eastern section, the Sierra Madre mountain range traverses the length of Aurora, Nueva Ecija and Bulacan. The Zambales mountains separates the central plains from the urban areas of Zambales at the western side. The region’s major drainage networks discharge to Lingayen Gulf in the northwest, Manila Bay in the south, the Pacific Ocean in the east, and the China Sea in the west.

  • Southern Philippines, February 2011
    Confirms CORI country of origin research and information CORI Country Report Southern Philippines, February 2011 Commissioned by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Division of International Protection. Any views expressed in this paper are those of the author and are not necessarily those of UNHCR. Preface Country of Origin Information (COI) is required within Refugee Status Determination (RSD) to provide objective evidence on conditions in refugee producing countries to support decision making. Quality information about human rights, legal provisions, politics, culture, society, religion and healthcare in countries of origin is essential in establishing whether or not a person’s fear of persecution is well founded. CORI Country Reports are designed to aid decision making within RSD. They are not intended to be general reports on human rights conditions. They serve a specific purpose, collating legally relevant information on conditions in countries of origin, pertinent to the assessment of claims for asylum. Categories of COI included within this report are based on the most common issues arising from asylum applications made by nationals from the southern Philippines, specifically Mindanao, Tawi Tawi, Basilan and Sulu. This report covers events up to 28 February 2011. COI is a specific discipline distinct from academic, journalistic or policy writing, with its own conventions and protocols of professional standards as outlined in international guidance such as The Common EU Guidelines on Processing Country of Origin Information, 2008 and UNHCR, Country of Origin Information: Towards Enhanced International Cooperation, 2004. CORI provides information impartially and objectively, the inclusion of source material in this report does not equate to CORI agreeing with its content or reflect CORI’s position on conditions in a country.
