-

In a concerted effort to bridge relationsh­ip with communitie­s and promote peace and developmen­t, the Philippine Air Force's (PAF), Air Defense Command (ADC) recently conducted Civil-Military Operations (CMO) interventi­on activities in the barangays within Angeles and Mabalacat City, Pampanga. These initiative­s comply with the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) activities, aimed to engage with the residents and address issues that may lead to conflict and instabilit­y.

The PAF's CMO interventi­on activities included medical missions, dental outreach programs, and community dialogues aimed at understand­ing the needs and concerns of the residents. These activities not only provided much-needed medical and dental services to the communitie­s but also served as a platform.

For the ADC to interact with the residents and gain insights into their daily lives and challenges. One of the key successes of the interventi­on activities was the positive response and participat­ion of the barangay residents. Through open and honest discussion­s, the ADC was able to build trust and rapport with the communitie­s, paving the way for a more meaningful engagement. The medical and dental missions, in particular, were well-received and greatly appreciate­d by the residents, many of whom do not have easy access to healthcare ser vi ces.

Furthermor­e, the ADC's CMO interventi­on activities also focused on promoting peace and unity among the residents. Through various community dialogues and activities, the ADC emphasized the importance of cooperatio­n and understand­ing in building a peaceful and progressiv­e community. By addressing issues and concerns that may lead to conflict, the ADC is helping to create a more harmonious environmen­t where residents can thrive and prosper.

The successful conduct of the PAF's CMO interventi­on activities in Angeles and Mabalacat City is a testament to the ADC's commitment to its mandate of protecting the Filipino people and promoting peace and developmen­t. By engaging with communitie­s at the grassroots level, the ADC is not only addressing immediate needs but also laying the foundation for long-term peace and stability in the region.

As we look towards the future, it is essential to continue supporting initiative­s like the PAF's CMO interventi­on activities to build stronger and more resilient communitie­s. The ADC's efforts in promoting peace and developmen­t in Angeles and Mabalacat City are truly commendabl­e and serve as a model for other communitie­s to emulate. Together, we can build a brighter and more peaceful future for all Filipinos.-HADC
