Local authorities are prepared of possibilities that the current unrest in Mindanao would spill-over to the province.
This was the assurance of Gov. Erico Aumentado when asked to comment on security measures in place if the conflict between the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).
Although the specific security measures were not revealed by the governor, he said during the weekly Governor Reports on Friday that the Provincial Peace and Order Council will meet this week to tackle the issue.
We have an operational Bohol Local Internal Security System (BLISS)", he said.
The government, internal security forces and the local government units conceived the BLISS to expand the security local capability. This is through engaging communities' help in repelling reporting re-entry of communist terrorists who left Bohol during the recent anti-insurgency operations, this was bared by Bohol Police Director SSupt.
Edgardo Ingking, during a PPOC presentation months ago.
The pull-out and the re-assignment of the 302nd Brigade to Negros which left only a few internal security units operating here heightened the implementation of the BLISS.
Now, after MILF-induced conflict, the country's military leadership pulled out Bohol 's 43rd Infantry Battalion to help secure Lanao.
