RPM-P/RPA/ABB into the society;
• Transformation of RPM-P/RPA/ABB into a legitimate socio-political
organization;
• Provision of development support to TPG-identified areas
PAMANA supports the development component of the
completion process
Government convergence through PAMANA strengthens
the peace process with the RPMP/RPA/ABB
"Natatangi at napakahalaga ng papel na ginampanan
ng lokal na pamahalaan. Ipinakita po ni Mayor ang
huwarang gawi ng isang pinuno sa kagyat na
pangangailangan ng proyekto ng kapayapaan.”
– Veronica Tabara of the RPMP/RPA/ABB during the groundbreaking
ceremony of the P37M Locotan farm-to-market road in Kabankalan,
Negros Occidental
GPH-CPP/NPA/NDF Peace Process
Moving towards a peaceful resolution of the armed conflict with the
CPP/NPA/NDF
GPH remains committed to a political
settlement.
GPH wants Talks to focus on issues that are
meaningful; with results that are immediately
felt by the communities (agenda-based) –
with strong bias on ending violence on the
ground
GPH is exploring how to reach a time-bound
framework for talks, preferably to have
substantial peace dividend achieved during
the PNoy administration.
PAMANA as complementary to the Peace Table with the
CPP/NPA/NDF
• PAMANA allows communities to have an alternative and nonviolent channel for their pursuit of social justice. PAMANA
provides a platform to engage the community in charting their
own development.
• With or without the formal peace talks, PAMANA will be
pursued by the government.
• It is meant to reduce the levels of violence on the ground and
improve the quality of life of the people.
CLIP as an Integration Program
for former NPAs
• Comprehensive Local Integration Program or CLIP is offered to
NPAs who have decided to return to the fold of law.
• Locally-led implementation providing
– Physical Security
– Socio-Economic Assistance
– Healing & Reconciliation Interventions
Within the PAMANA Framework, CLIP is considered as a Pillar 1
Intervention –- Building the Foundations Peace

Government Peacebuilding Efforts -- A Message of Hope
“Dati masikip ang buhay ko at makitid ang pagtanaw
ko sa buhay; ngayon nakita ko nang may mundo at
lipunang mas maaliwalas kung saan kaya ko nang
muling mangarap.” -- CLIP Beneficiary
Eighty-year-old Lorenzo Anterio
Silvino Lubos, Northern Samar
“Ang gobyerno noon, may programa, may perang
nare-release, pero walang nakikitang proyekto .”
“Napakahirap ng hanapbuhay. May produkto at
masipag ang mga tao pero walang transportasyon at
kalsada .”
“First time kong nakita ang pruweba ng gobyerno.
First time kong nakita na may tulong sa tao.”
“Pangarap ko na makapaglakad sa sementadong
kalsada. Sinasabi ko sa sarili ko, ‘It will be fulfilled.’
Maraming Salamat sa Pagsulong ng Kapayapaan!
