JOLO, SULU — Military and local government officials said yesterday the cancellation of joint military exercises of Philippine and US troops over of the dispute on the custody of convicted rapist Marine Lance Corporal Daniel Smith is a major setback to the country’s counter-terrorism campaign.


Lt. Gen. Eugenio Cedo, chief of the Western Mindanao Command (Westmincom), said the Armed Forces would not be able to fill the void left by the cancellation of the exercises, dubbed Balikatan, once the US troops withdraw next year.
