Good news for rebel surrenderees: NAC to set up in Bohol local amnesty board

The National Amnesty Commission (NAC) is looking at establishing in Bohol a Local Amnesty Board (LAB) to facilitate the processing and review of amnesty applications from former rebels who are now Bohol’s partners in reforms.
