Apayao Gov. Bulut Jr. receives Philippine Army citation for commitment to sustaining peace

Luna, Apayao – Governor Elias Bulut Jr. has been consistent in his commitment to sustaining peace in Apayao and supporting the government’s campaign to stop insurgency over the past years.  

This made him become the latest recipient of the ‘Philippine Army Stakeholder Award’ which recognizes the contributions of military stakeholders in efforts to end armed conflict in the country.  

The citation was presented by Philippine Army Commanding General, LtGen. Roy M. Galido to the governor on May 20 during the 5th Infantry Division’s 43rd Founding Anniversary celebration in Gamu, Isabela.

The trophy and plaque were received by Board Member Kyle Mariah Chelsea Bulut-Cunan who personally attended the celebration on behalf of the governor.

"His active support demonstrated sustained commitment in the quest of winning the peace while serving as the rock foundation for a cohesive and solid support system in promoting the culture of peace and security," the plaque reads.
