He also expressed his gratitude to the officers for keeping control of the peace and order on the island, especially during the celebration of the activities of the LGU.

 

"With all the support that you need, the region and the LGU-Samal are willing to support, ang amoa lng diha is at least maserbisyohan nato pagmaayo ang katong mga taga-Samal ug mga bisita pud nato" Mr. Valera said.
