Marcos declares no more guerrilla fronts in PH

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. stated during his fourth State of the Nation Address on Monday that the Philippines has become more peaceful with no remaining guerrilla fronts.

Marcos emphasized that the Armed Forces of the Philippines, Philippine National Police, and former rebels are collaborating to maintain peace and order in the country.

The President noted that thousands of former rebels have surrendered and are now living normally with their families, supported by government assistance.

He reiterated that there are no more guerrilla groups left in the nation and the government will prevent their reformation.

In the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), security forces and former rebels work together to ensure a peaceful society with greater respect for human rights.

Over 13 million Filipinos who were saved from armed conflict now benefit from various infrastructure projects such as health stations, classrooms, water systems, and streetlights constructed by the government.
