Action for Truth and Accountability: Interfaith Prayer Rally
and Candle Lighting Ceremony on Friday (February 22, 2008)
The current controversy on ZTE-NBN project portrayed another “grand scale” corruption involving top government officials. It adds to the alleged anomalies and scandals in the past such as the fertilizer scam, “Hello Garci” scandal and Diosdado Macapagal highway controversy that still remain unsettled.
As advocate of transparency and accountability in governance, all we need is the TRUTH behind these issues. In response to the call for action for truth and accountability, an INTERFAITH PRAYER RALLY AND CANDLE LIGHTING CEREMONY will be held at 5:00 PM on February 22, 2008 (Friday) at the Freedom Park (in front of Ateneo). All colleagues in social development work and their assisted communities are invited to attend the activity.
This collective mass action is organized and supported by various stakeholders such as the Ateneo de Davao University, Black and White Movement, AMOMA, MINCODE and the Mindanao Commission on Women. It is intended to show to the public our outrage and denounce on the massive corruption and affirm our yearning for the truth on the alleged controversies of the current government. The activity will be held-held back-to-back with a mini-concert (at 4:00 PM) organized by the student and youth sector.
For further inquiries about the activity, kindly contact the Social Involvement and Coordinating Office (SICO) at Tel. # (082) 221-2414 local 8353 & 8329. You may also call MINCODE Secretariat at Tel (082) 299-1722 or text (0920) 951-6546 and look for Ian.

MINCODE’S DAVAO HISTORY BOOK PUBLISHED
MINCODE in partnership with the Research and Publication Office of Ateneo de Davao University published the book entitled “Davao: Reconstructing History from Text and Memory” last December 2005. Prof. Macario Tiu, ADDU professor and one of the research fellows and scholars of MINCODE’s Mindano History Project, authored it. The book was the second of the series of publication on Mindanao history.
The Mindanao History Project was an advocacy initiative of the Coalition. It started with MINCODE commissioned a pool of research fellows and scholars to undertake a historical study on Mindanao in mid-1999 to 2003. Several writings were produced and covered the history of major areas in Mindanao such as Davao, Bukidnon, Caraga Region, Zamboanga Peninsula and Cotabato. The first book on Mindanao history was published in 2003. It was authored by Prof. Rody Rodil and entitled “A Story of Mindanao and Sulu: In Question and Answer”
MINCODE believes that in writing Mindanao History it enables to:
? Help unify the peoples of Mindanao who have diverse ad oftentimes conflicting interests;
? Assist in the identification and appreciation of the diversity among these peoples;
? Facilitate in the discovery of their commonalities so that there could be “unity in diversity”; and
? Help push the development of a home-grown Mindanao identity.
