“This organization can serve as an apparatus to ensure that moral governance is truly being followed. I hope that all employees here in BARMM are encouraged to become members of this organization,” emphasized the Chief Minister.
“The establishment of this organization is another milestone for the employees of the Bangsamoro Government because there is a need for an organization that focuses on how and what the problems or concerns of employees are that leaders do not see, and a group that focuses on implementing programs in line with moral governance,” he added.
