THE Army has confirmed the shift of the communist warfare after losing precious grounds in Bohol.
According to LtCol Romeo Brawner, and goal of the Communist Party of the Philippines in Bohol is to regain its lost mass base by organizing District White Area Committees (DWAC).
During the recent PPOC meeting held in Carlos P Garcia town, LtCol Brawner said the organizers are semi-legal teams who are out mascarading as “community organizers” but with the intention of raising funds to support the ongoing conflict and regain their lost mass base.
The White Area Committee, Brawner said was a term coined by members of the communist movement who spilled out the information during tactical interrogations.
He added that the WAC is fully capable of reorganizing the lost mass base, so that the army now is into areas where the WAC operates.
We have to tell the people and communities about what these people are after so that we can stop them from destabilizing the peace and order of Bohol, Barwner said. (PIA-Bohol)
