'A stronger Mindanao means a stronger Philippines'

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. leads the 17th Meeting of the National Government-Bangsamoro Government Intergovernmental Relations Body at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) in Pasay City on Thursday, Feb. 8, 2024. In his speech, the President said "there is only one true peace when the bloody tally of war is replaced with the scoreboard of development and that scoreboard shows that peace has won, that the war is over."

00:00 The burden on our marvelous team.
00:04 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:07 What I have mentioned are the top of the--
00:18 [INAUDIBLE] engagement to the United Nations,
00:21 Jaida, and European Union on programs
00:24 that strengthen governance institutions, public services,
00:28 and financial administration.
00:31 Another failure of CAP is the success
00:33 of the Pax Ramon Board of Investments
00:36 in generating 3.3 billion pesos worth of investment
00:40 in the last three months of 2023, which would have grown
00:45 1,980 million pesos.
00:46 [APPLAUSE]
00:49 And I assure you, these are just a few entries
00:52 into your thick catalog of achievements.
00:55 They just highlight the things that matter most for me,
00:59 for whom we are walking the hard, but high road to peace.
01:04 Because peace is neither found in the documents
01:07 that we exchange, nor in the evidence
01:09 of our agreements, nor in the minutes of these meetings.
01:14 Peace for people is found in jobs created, schools opened,
01:19 farms irrigated, new hospitals opened,
01:22 roads constructed, businesses launched.
01:26 Plus, there is only one true peace,
01:28 and the bloody valley of war is replaced
01:31 with a scoreboard of confounding.
