From the Philippine News Agency (Oct 26): Creation of Bangsamoro would not
entail amendments to 1987 Constitution -- Malacanang
The Aquino administration reiterated its position the creation of the Bangsamoro
would not entail amendments to the 1987 Constitution, a Palace official said
Friday.
Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda issued the statement in a
phone-patch interview in Malacanang Friday following reports some stated the
need to amend the Constitution to create the Bangsamoro and to implement the
peace agreement between the Philippine government and the Moro Islamic
Liberation Front.
"I think what is very clear was the Bangsamoro Framework Agreement was signed
within the flexibility of the Constitution. Ang paniniwala po natin that the
Organic Act that will be drafted ay dadaan po sa Kongreso. Ang pananaw po ng
ating pamahalaan ay kaya po natin gawin ang lahat ng ito within the framework of
the 1987 Constitution," he said....
