TABANGO, Leyte---Some 61 participants of the Youth Leadership Summit held at Tabango, Leyte were cited future leaders by the newly installed commander of Ormoc based 802nd Infantry Brigade during the closing ceremony on Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Col. Rafael C. Valencia who took over command of 802nd Infantry Brigade on Sunday, October 29 was guest of honor and speaker on the fourth Youth Leadership Summit facilitated by the 19th Infantry (Commando) Battalion and DepEd Alternative Learning System in the province of Leyte this year.
Col. Valencia was amazed on how the participants were transformed in just three days of leadership and team building activities.
In his message, he stressed that peace should be nurtured from the youth being the hope of the nation. He likewise commends the untiring support of the LGU Tabango and the perennial backing of DepEd Alternative Learning System to 19IB.
The 19th Infantry (Commando) Battalion under Lt. Col. Joel Alejandro S. Nacnac had gone through intensive inter-agency coordination prior to the conduct of the Youth Leadership Summit.
Since he assumed command of 19IB, four Youth Leadership Summits had been conducted in the province of Leyte. “I hope that the participants we have today will see themselves working for peace and development in their communities”, Nacnac deliberately stressed.
