US envoy adopted ‘darling’ of South Cotabato
Sema said Kenney’s adoption as “daughter” of the city’s Moro nobility was one way of acknowledging her role in helping propagate the so-called “culture of peace” among the local communities.
“I’m honored with such recognition. Cotabato is a great place. Let’s work together for peace to reign here. The minute we have peace, we can tell others to come and invest here,” Kenney said.
