Posted by Negros Chronicle  Published in Front Page

by: DEMS REY DEMECILLO

Perceived election violence is sought to be avoided if not aborted by the big political rival groups in the first district even as the Macias- Limkaichong alliance and the Baldado-Paras conduit are hoping to neutralize the resurgence of armed partisans now being monitored in northern Negros Oriental.

“BOTA”

Posted by Negros Chronicle  Published in Front Page
