THE PGBI STORY

During Senator Gregorio B. Honasan II incumbency as senator of the Philippine Republic, we have known from various accounts
in the past how the former senators involvement began with the clamours for unity from every marked GUARDIANS nationwide that
he was able to touch base with during the tour of duty as Senator in the performance of his mandated function as public servant.
Excerpts from all those incidental acquaintances with the GUARDIANS from the grassroots levels nationwide summarizes into but
only one sacred word, UNITY.
By midyear 1999, a few good men from the Office of Senator Honasan headed by George M. FGBF GEORGE Duldulao
started initially the GUARDIANS unification efforts by patiently establishing contacts with the key leaders of all GUARDIANS
factions nationwide.
During the provisional months of the unification efforts, some responded readily considering the good senator then as the
unifying factor while others may have absorbed it negatively. Arduous tasks indeed but the unification core group was not derailed
with all those discouragements and thus continued with their quest for uniting the brotherhood into one cohesive national organization.
Because for nearly twenty-five (25) years, the GUARDIANS movement had no clear vision of its directions nor any proposed formal
structure.
Thus the day of reckoning did happen on March 18 and 19, 2000 when GUARDIANS elders and key leaders coming from the
different major factions of the GUARDIANS movement and splinter groups convened for a unification meeting in Manila. Expected
as it was, the scenario and environment were very unlikely from the day the representatives / delegates from thirteen (13) regions with
different orientations arrived all claiming to be the original GUARDIANS organization.
Although it was indeed a lengthy heartbreaking discussions and battle of the GUARDIANS titans; from the result of the
unification meeting lies a great story the birth of the PHILIPPINE GUARDIANS BROTHERHOOD, INCORPORATED (PGBI)
to unify all GUARDIANS factions and splinter groups under one umbrella organization.
The Philippine GUARDIANS Brotherhood, Incorporated (PGBI), is a non-stock and non-sectarian organization. The core and
main objective of the Organization is to unite, develop and maintain camaraderie among its members for the betterment and more
effectively address matters of their common interests and concerns, and with the view of achieving sustainable development for the
Filipino communities as a non-government organization dedicated in pursuit of peace and prosperity for all Filipinos.
The new and unifying organization holds aloft the motto: Brotherhood for PEACE, INTEGRITY, JUSTICE, EQUALITY,
SERVICE and PROSPERITY.
The Articles of Incorporation and Constitution and By-laws of the organization was formulated, approved and was formally
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2000 under SEC Registration NrA200008885. The incorporators
were the following:

. . .while Senator Gregorio SGF GRINGO B Honasan II; Leborio MFGF ABRAHAM Jangao, Jr.; Billy SGF SIERRA
Bibit; Ernie MG CARUB Burac; Bernard RMG RANGER Corella; Elixier RMG NOAH Bongabong; George M. FGBF
GEORGE Duldulao; and Garibaldi C. Sungduan affixed their signatures as witnesses in the Articles of Incorporation.
The members of the Interim National Executive Council composed of the delegates or representatives to the March 18-19, 2000
National Unification Convention in Manila existed immediately upon the ratification of the Constitution and By-Laws except for
Fernando MG ELSEWHERE Malamion Representative, Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) which were replaced by Fiscal
Elmer MG PIALMER Sagsago because the former represented CAR In behalf of MG PIALMER by virtue of resolution passed by
CAR leadership.
All burning with enthusiasm, the delegates/regional representatives return to their respective regions of jurisdiction spreading the
good news of unification and to replicate the unification efforts down to the grassroots level and get ready for consolidation processes.
Changing conditions and needs, however, dictate that the PGBI Constitution and other legal orders should likewise reflect the
changing times. Structural/Organizational refining was effected to start from top PGBI hierarchy and each one has its own time to
leave and has choices to be made in each time whether graceful or ungraceful.. In the instance, those choices are sometimes painful if
it means accepting ungraceful exit from the organization. Although they form part in carving PGBI history, we have to respect and let
go of the following unification brothers: VPs Luzon Bernard RMG RANGER Corella and Virgilio SGF BRONZE Briones; VP
Visayas Pastor RMG KADRE Alcover; NCR Representatives RMG Mohammad Isa Vergel De Dios & SGF LAZO; Region III
Representative Isaac RMG MEL Padilla; Region IX Representative Hamid RMG AMID Julhani; Region XI Representative
Daniel FGRF DANIEL Quieta, Jr.; and some members of the unification secretariat namely; Ernie MG CARUB Burac & Elixier
MG NOAH Bongabong.
The title of Master Founder (MF) which was included in the original Constitution and By-Laws was unanimously deleted and
approved by members of the PGBI National Executive Council (NEC) in a convention held on June 22, 2002 when its Constitution
and By-Laws was amended.
Grand Supremo (GS) is a title given to the highest incumbent National Official of the organization, whether coming from the Supreme
Godfather (SGF) / Supreme Godmother (SGM), Ranking MAGIC Group (RMG).
