                    [Summary] => Armed Forces spokesman Brig. Gen. Edilberto Adan is right. He’s no arm-chair general but a seasoned combat commander himself. (He once led the 101st Brigade in Mindanao, which included serving in Basilan, Zamboanga and other "war zones" in Mindanao). When Adan told reporters last Tuesday that the three Abu Sayyaf hostages, the military believes, are being "kept" in any of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) camps set up in the Basilan towns of Maluso, Sumisip, Tuburan and Tipo-Tipo, he wasn’t bluffing.

                    [Summary] => Armed Forces spokesman Brig. Gen. Edilberto Adan is right. He’s no arm-chair general but a seasoned combat commander himself. (He once led the 101st Brigade in Mindanao, which included serving in Basilan, Zamboanga and other "war zones" in Mindanao). When Adan told reporters last Tuesday that the three Abu Sayyaf hostages, the military believes, are being "kept" in any of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) camps set up in the Basilan towns of Maluso, Sumisip, Tuburan and Tipo-Tipo, he wasn’t bluffing.
