Lanao stakeholders commit to support peaceful, honest 2016 polls




MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur, Nov. 4 --- Stakeholders from various government agencies and private organizations here have committed  to support local media practitioners in reporting accurate information for peaceful and honest (PH) elections come 2016. 

They signified their commitment during the multi-stakeholders conference held at Marawi Resort Hotel on November 1.

Judge Abuali Cali of the Ulama League of the Philippines said media plays a critical role in peace dialogues citing the on-going peace talk between the Philippine Government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front where media helps in informing the public on the salient features of the proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law.

Minalang Barapantao Sr., former station manager of Radyo ng Bayan - Marawi, reminded media practitioners on the importance of accurate and responsible reporting.

He said media practitioners should convey proper and up-to-date information to the public without hiding the truth. “Do not attack the person directly rather attack the bad action,” he added.

The multi-stakeholders conference for PH 2016 elections was organized by the newly established Marawi Broadcasters’ Association (MBA), a group of broadcasters based in Marawi City aiming to strengthen the delivery of relevant, timely and truthful information to the public.

The conference was highlighted by the induction of the Board of Directors and Officers of the MBA administered by the Atty. Omar Macapaar, President of the Integrated Bar of the Philippines - Lanao del Sur Chapter.

PTV-4 anchor, Princess Habiba Sarip, also graced the conference and was inducted as an honorary member of the association.
