00:00 In the north, the authorities are preparing for the security that will be implemented in Cordillera Administrative Region for the barangay and the youth elections.
00:11 Some barangays here are considered areas of concern.
00:14 Meanwhile, police have also been warned that they will serve as special electoral board.
00:20 The center of the news from Glory Balaga of PTV Cordillera.
00:28 13 barangays in Abra and 1 barangay in Calinga in the Cordillera Region are in the yellow category in areas of concern now by COMELEC in the upcoming barangay and SKE elections.
00:40 According to the Police Regional Office Cordillera, these are the barangays that have been reported with election-related incidents in the past elections.
00:49 At present, the authorities are working on the checkpoints where the presence of potential armed groups is being closely monitored.
00:59 This is in accordance with what happened to the police and armed groups in Bukay Abra last week.
01:06 Their personalities are being validated and surfaced out but they are still potential. We cannot say that they are armed groups.
01:16 Meanwhile, due to the lack of teachers who will serve in the elections, fear has also risen.
01:23 PNP personnel have been ordered to serve as special electoral board.
01:28 52 of these will be appointed in Abra while 11 in Calinga.
01:34 We are assessing what are the areas of responsibility they need to address whatever issues they may have.
01:42 Meanwhile, two weeks before the BSKE, a multi-sectoral peace assembly was held to ensure the commitment of various agencies in the passing of a peaceful and fair election.
01:56 Here, the statement of commitment was strengthened and the majority also participated.
02:01 According to COMELEC, democracy must be established in the upcoming elections where the citizens are safe and free to vote.
02:10 They are the first to run to solve their problems.
02:15 That is why it is very important that the barangay officials are hardworking and have a sense of justice.
02:22 This is the reason why we should give importance to the barangay and SK elections.
02:29 The campaign is not yet starting.
02:32 Three candidates in Abra were given a show-cause order due to the Umanoy premature campaigning.
02:39 Our commission is serious in prosecuting premature campaigning.
02:46 Next week, the last Regional Joint Security Command Conference will be held to assess the situation of Cordillera and prepare what may happen on the day of the election.
02:58 Glory Belegan, for the people.
