It is also best that everyone in Mindanao will know about it,” says GMA Cagayan de Oro Station Manager ArmiSobremisana. “We believe this is the right time to bring One Mindanao at the core for a timely delivery of information. This way, Cagayan de Oro and the rest of Mindanao will have a better understanding of what’s going on and can, therefore, proactively contribute to building a unified and peaceful Mindanao,” she added.
