Minda confident on Zamboanga region rebound

Mindanao Development Authority (Minda) Chairman Luwalhati Antonino said on Monday that the successful resolution on the Zamboanga crisis will result in the province and region getting back on track economically, while progress on the peace process will “not go down the drain.”

“Whatever Mindanao earned in the recent years will not be lost because of this armed conflict,” said Antonino, referring to the Aquino administration’s goal to improve the province in long term and in an inclusive manner, and to recover fully from the crisis.
