Malacañang has assured that the Department of Social Welfare
and Development (DSWD) will assist communities affected by the ongoing military
operations in Butig, Lanao del Sur province.
It was reported that people have fled from conflict areas and some of them have lost their livelihood.
Undersecretary Manuel Quezon III of the Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office said he will let the Armed Forces release information on the ongoing operation.
"You can be sure that in the refugee areas and mga areas where ang mga kababayan natin are finding refuge, mga evacuation centers, that the DSWD will be there and the various LGUs (local government units) upang mabigyang lunas ang kanilang paghihirap sa panahon na ito," he said.
"And it is only through the achievement of peace na makababalik ang mga kababayan natin sa kanilang mga tahanan upang hindi lang bumalik ang katahimikan kundi para manatili ito," he added.
Undersecretary Quezon said the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) has been coordinating with the military as it repositioned its troops to give way to military operations and avoid misencounters.
"There have been many successful cases where the MILF has shown good faith and has cooperated with the authorities, precisely to avoid untoward incidents and let us give them their due in this regard," Quezon said. (PCOO News Release)
