The Regional Peace and Order Council in Western Visayas has declared Negros Occidental under a state of stable internal peace and security during its 1st quarter meeting in Bago City on Monday, March 25. Governor Eugenio Jose Lacson, chair of the RPOC, said that declaration will have a counterpart declaration for neighboring Negros Oriental. 'The declaration will not mean that the military will leave the island. They will still be around,' Lacson said.
'The region will then invite the President to come to Negros and declare both provinces under Sips,' he added. They will try to submit it to Malacañang by April or May, Lacson said. Provinces declared in a state of Sips are considered cleared and unaffected by communist insurgents and relatively peaceful.
