MANILA, Philippines — Presidential peace adviser Carlito Galvez Jr. urged Filipinos yesterday to embrace the culture of peace, as the country observed International Day of Peace.

“Let us reaffirm our commitment to a nation united by peace, progress and prosperity,” Galvez said.

He said the country has been aspiring to be a potential global model for its success in resolving internal armed conflicts.

“For years, it has demonstrated that principled diplomacy and peaceful solutions are not only possible, but essential, for sustainable development and lasting harmony,” Galvez said.

“The Office of the Presidential Adviser on Peace, Reconciliation and Unity encourages every Filipino to embrace a culture of peace, where dialogue, understanding and cooperation are the cornerstone of our interactions,” he added.

Galvez said that, guided by President Marcos’ call, the government will be pursuing a principled and peaceful resolution to all internal armed conflicts as part of the national collective quest for a more just, equitable and inclusive society for all Filipinos.

“Let us work together to address the root causes of conflict, such as poverty, inequality and injustice, by shoring up peace investments in the countryside and vulnerable communities,” he said.

“As we celebrate this year’s National Peace Consciousness Month, let us be inspired by the countless Filipinos who have dedicated their lives to peace and reconciliation. Let us honor their legacy by continuing to work towards a more peaceful and prosperous Philippines and a world where violence and conflict are a thing of the past,” Galvez added. — Sheila Crisostomo
