Davao Oriental’s security sector, led by the Philippine Army, has reaffirmed the province’s insurgency-free status despite efforts by rebel groups to reclaim their former territories. Authorities assured the public that there is no cause for alarm as the military, police, and other security forces remain united with local government units under the leadership of the Provincial Government.
To sustain the province’s peace and stability, communities are encouraged to continue supporting government initiatives by providing information and actively participating in anti-insurgency programs. The security sector has also emphasized its firm stance against any politically motivated violent incidents, especially as the nation moves closer to significant political activities.
As national events approach, the Philippine Army and law enforcement agencies are expected to further strengthen security measures to ensure a peaceful and orderly environment, free from threats. Government forces remain steadfast in their mission to deepen peace and development efforts in Davao Oriental through inter-agency coordination, community engagement, and continuous peace and order operations.
