41st Infantry Brigade
BY: MARIA TERESA B. BENAS
LAGANGILANG, Abra, (PIA) – – The new commander of the 41st Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army here vowed to continue the government’s existing peace programs in the province especially the “Kabsatko, Ipategko Program” (KIP).
Lt. Col. Virgilio M. Noora replaces Lt. Col. Danilo R. Domingo who successfully implemented the ‘Bayanihan’ program of the Armed Forces of the Philippines in partnership with the local government units and other national government agencies in the area.
Noora, a graduate of the Philippine Military Academy Batch ‘92, was a member of the 503rd IB based in Tabuk City, Kalinga prior to his assignment as commander of the 41st IB last July 12.
He assured collaboration to the KIP, a program of the provincial government in partnership with the Army which aims to support the rehabilitation of rebel returnees under a caring scheme where a sponsor assists the former rebel in his reintegration to the community. The program has enticed many former rebels to return to the fold of the law.
Meanwhile, Domingo during turnover of command presided by Major-General Benito Antonio T. De Leon, 5th Infantry Division Commander, thanked the people of Abra, political leaders, the church leaders, government and non-government agencies and community leaders for their support during his stint in the province.
During his stint, the troops did not only implement the Bayanihan project in partnership with the local government units and other national government agencies but assisted various medical, dental missions and other services to the most needy communities in the far flung areas. They were also engaged in monitoring two electoral exercises and conducted numerous combat operations that yielded firearms and ammunitions, subversive documents and materials and caused the surrender of many rebels.
Aside from the traditional awarding of medals of merit to the out-going battalion commander, Mayor Robert Victor G. Seares, Jr., of Dolores awarded Domingo a Plaque of Appreciation for his all-out support to the LGU in addressing their peace and order problem.
Joy Padilla of the Holy Spirit Academy of Bangued Batch ’96 likewise gave a certificate of appreciation in gratefulness for his support and assistance to their medical and dental missions and gift-giving projects in the different schools in the remote municipalities of Abra.

Sungbat: Army personnel adda pay tangke nga intugotda’t Bangued? Adda enkuwentro kadi ti Army ken NPA ditoy Bangued, awan no di ket sadiay bantay. To: Money Lotto, sinno ngarud ti mangobserbar dagitoy “agtuturay” no saan nga datao nga agbaybayad ti buis?

Posted by manoloto | August 20, 2014, 11:46 pmask ruby about the PNP? the PNP that takit and his old allies used for their victory against kabalyo and she will tell you that she dont trust the PNP thats why a military presence in the capitol is visible.
Posted by eric shawn | August 21, 2014, 1:03 amTo ES: PNP was never allied with Takit against ex-gov Valera, PNP (remember Gen. Billit?) were allied with the Lunas who allied with Takit in defeating Valera. The Army took side with Takit through an influential person from Abra who is his friend in LA and “mistah” of the CO and/or XO of the Army in Lagangilang. Check where these CO/XO “rest” while they are suppose to be in their camp. They have a rest house provided by Takit’s friend’s family manned by their “Intelligence” personnel that is walking distance from their camp. Now tell me what you know about the relationship of the army and Takit?

Posted by GENTI | August 21, 2014, 10:53 pmI don’t need attention from anybody, I am just bringing out what I observe. I never mentioned that officials in our beloved province are biased, most of them if not all are crooks, I say again, most of them if not all are crooks, if you know what I mean..
Posted by GENTI | August 21, 2014, 10:40 pmcan you site an incident why you said that the PNP AND AFP were biased against Kabalyo if really you know the history, pls hearsay is not allowed here.
Posted by eric shawn | August 22, 2014, 9:29 amPilko: Do you really know the meaning of “hearsay”? Who is Gen. Martin? The billit, who was used by the Lunas to kick Valera’s ass? Again, do you know the meaning of “bias”? Baka agpatingga ka laeng ti puon ti bayabas, my boy.
You know what? I read some of your comments in here but I can’t stand your lowly IQ on every thing you post. Can you even spell IQ? Boy, you need to do some thinking before you engage with anybody..Napia pay tay warek-warek ngem sika, tay warek-warek adda utekna ngem sika,, awan la ngarud uteknan, lukmo pay ta banga-bangam.

Posted by manoloto | August 24, 2014, 3:45 amHe-he-he, another “kilawen”, not even close to “warek-warek”.
Posted by GENTI | August 24, 2014, 11:02 amgenti this is not forum wherein you have to write your post in english in a perfect grammar this is a web wherein you post what you want as long you can substantiate it. now tell me can you tell to his honorable web an incident wherein the PNP and AFP had shown their impartiality againts kabalyo in the past election , hearsay is not allowed.
Posted by eric shawn | August 24, 2014, 5:32 amPilko: No kasta saan mo nga matukod wenno mapanunot, “billit”, that’s the “keyword”. With that word, you should digest the ramifications of his actions during the election in the past wherein kabalyo was ousted. Hope this will clarify your idiocy, ’cause I don’t want to entertain more of your senseless and illogical postings
Posted by GENTI | August 24, 2014, 10:59 amgenti im reading newspaper and watching tv news everytime a politicians, vips or celebrities when they interviewed by media of an issue against them they tend to ignore they replied like you.. im just simply asking you if you had experienced or witnessed an impartiality by the PNP/AFP before but you answering senseless and illogical response. a public knowledge is different if you could tell to this honorable web your experience or if you had witnessed an actions the billit you are referring with. i hate that guy but i dont give a damn its just wala ako mgawa
Posted by eric shawn | August 24, 2014, 4:43 pmmasyado ka believe sa sarili mo genti. but you are pretender like takit and others whom you forgot to mention who ousted vicsyd with the help of the general. i dont even eat warekwarek genti pang pulutan lng mga kanto boy yan so meaning isa ka rin batang tung-og.
Posted by eric shawn | August 24, 2014, 5:00 pmBrother GENTI, I like your style in posting your comments by way of asking questions; it’s thought provoking. Actually i learned that Russians like Americans have similarities, both are inquisitive – always eager to ask questions. So they learn faster. Like a child who have just learned to talk, always asking ‘ ania atoy?’ Unfortunately, it appears that you are now the new victim of unrefined comments. Don’t be discouraged nor stooped to their level nor be swayed to their ‘standard’. Let us be inspired with the words of one the greatest leaders of the world, Gandhi who said ” Many people, especially the igno..people want to punish you for speaking the truth, for being correct, for being you. If you are right n you know it, speak your mind, even if you are a minority of one, the truth is stiil the truth.
Let us continue to do our modest way to help our province even by asking not only thought provoking but heart challenging questions to wake up our leaders who are enjoying earthly life at the expense at the majority exploited poor.
Posted by TAGAMASID | August 24, 2014, 4:55 pmThank you Tagamasid. I will heed to your words.,
Posted by GENTI | August 24, 2014, 9:10 pmlets give a round of aplause to the righteosman as if he know God.

Posted by eric shawn | August 28, 2014, 5:28 amnagpakita ka rin HUDAS NA ERIC SHAWN KAYA si lucifer TAGAMASID AY BASBAS NANG BASBAS KASAMA NGA DIN ANG KANYANG SAKRISTAN NA SI GENTI LINOLOKO
Posted by INACTIVE | August 26, 2014, 10:00 pmDo you really know who is Lucifer, how he was created? No maamuanyo ti kinapudno, dakdakel pay ngem ti lubong ti apalyo. He was the anointed Cherubin/angel, blessed by God with power, wisdom, and beauty, sometimes called morning star ( baggak). But because of greed, like most politicians, he was not contented what he had n wanted to be like his creator , God cursed him to his downful. He was cast down from heaven to earth and now spread havoc of violence n suffering on earth. Read Isaiah 14 particularly verse 12, and Exekiel 28, especially verse 15, 18.
On the isssue on new leadership of army in Abra, there is a renewed hope for a continued peace. With the commendable relationship of local leadership and AFP, basic services especially intended for remote areas will surely continue to improve quality of life, a detergent from the influence of communism caused primarily by neglect n poverty. Let us also do our best to support whatever program they intend to innetiate.
