19 September, 2025 (Legazpi City, Albay) – The Local Amnesty Board (LAB) of Albay paid a courtesy visit to Cynthia L. Perdiz, CESO V, Regional Director of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Region V, to enhance inter-agency coordination in addressing civil documentation concerns of Former Rebels (FRs).

The meeting focused on procedures for verifying whether FRs have existing records in the PSA civil registry. For individuals without such records or those uncertain about their registration status, both agencies reviewed the requirements and process for late birth registration.

This collaborative initiative is part of the broader effort to support the government’s amnesty program by resolving key documentation challenges. Ensuring that FRs have the necessary civil documents is vital to enabling their full reintegration into society and facilitating their access to government services.

The LAB Albay and PSA Region V reaffirmed their commitment to a coordinated, efficient, and inclusive approach in support of national peace and reconciliation efforts.
