00:00Armed Forces of the Philippines Spokesperson-Colonel Fransel Padilla assured that the soldiers will not give up despite the gradual weakening of the guerrilla front in the country.
00:10In a statement by Mike Abelive, Padilla said that the guerrilla front of the New People's Army is now alone.
00:18Many provinces have declared insurgency-free.
00:21Despite this, Padilla said that they will continue to fulfill their duty to ensure a peaceful country against insurgency and exodus from the country.
00:34From the start of the year, we declared in January that there are 7 weakened guerrilla fronts.
00:40Now we are down to 1. But that 1 is under process so that it can be totally eliminated.
00:48So we have more and more provinces who have been declaring that they are insurgency-free.
00:53But of course, the Armed Forces of the Philippines, we will not let our guards down.
00:57So we are still there. We will not leave it so that we can attain what we call just and lasting peace.
01:04And we can transition this to law enforcement.
