MILF camps soon to be farming communities – DA

The Department of Agriculture (DA) has launched an agricultural program that would transform Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) camps in the provinces of Maguindanao and Lanao into peaceful farming communities.

Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala, together with former DA Secretary and Philippine government (GPH) peace panel member Senen Bacani, led the turn over of some P26-million worth of agricultural equipment, planting materials and farm animals to beneficiaries in six Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) camps in a ceremony held in Simuay, Sultan Kudarat, Maguindanao recently.
