New Naval Station to rise in Sulu
The Philippine Navy is constructing a new naval station to boost the security in the province of Sulu.
The new naval station will soon rise in Barangay Bual, Luuk, a third class town of Sulu province.
The municipal government of Luuk headed by Mayor Allayon Arbison Jr. donated three-hectare property to the Philippine Navy, which will be used as the site for the naval station in the area.
A Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and Deed of Donation was signed by Rear Adm. Rene Medina, Naval Forces Western Mindanao (NFWM) commander, Mayor Arbison, and Sulu second district Rep. Munir Arbison, to formally turn over the property.
The NFWM said in a statement that the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the naval station was held last Friday, February 23.
The signing of the MOA and Deed of Donation as well as the groundbreaking ceremony was held together with the “All-In-One Medical and Dental Mission” organized by Marine Battalion Landing Team 1 (MBLT-1) in partnership with Joint Task Force Sulu and other concerned stakeholders.
