Father Nonoy Crisostomo of the Holy Rosary
Parish (HRP) of Boracay was glad of the support of the government for the Aetas
in the island.
On the ocular inspection held by the National
Technical Working Group (NTWG) on the island on Friday, February 28, wherein
the Ati Community at Tulubhan, Manoc-Manoc was also visited, Crisostomo said he
was happy because of the action shown by the government especially concerning the
land long yearned for by the said natives.
Aside from the visit of the NTWG to the Aetas,
DILG Secretary Mar Roxas gave assurance that allegedly the complete force of
the government will be on the watch for the security of the Aetas.
Meanwhile, the NTWG also visited the site
where Ati Spokesperson Dexter Condez was slain. The Aetas, representatives of
HRP Boracay, and individuals who support the Ati Community in the island,
offered prayer at the area.
