The
Battle of Marawi between government forces and combined forces of the
ISIL-linked
Maute and
Abu Sayyaf groups left the city in ruins. Amid the ongoing battle on June 28, 2017, President
Rodrigo Duterte, through Administrative Order No. 3, created the Task Force Bangon Marawi (TFBM) to facilitate the rehabilitation, recovery and reconstruction efforts in
Marawi. As an inter-agency task force, the TFBM members were from several
executive departments. Administrative Order No. 9 dated October 27, 2017, designated the Chairman of the
Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council as the chairperson of the task force, replacing the
Secretary of National Defense who became the vice-chairman along with the
Secretary of Public Works and Highways. In an attempt to "accelerate reconstruction and recovery efforts" in Marawi, on December 22, 2023, President
Bongbong Marcos signed an administrative order abolishing the task force and directing regular line agencies to take over the rehabilitation of the city. Marcos further ordered the agency's unused funds to be surrendered to the
Office of the President. ==Composition==
