MILF: Still part of peace process

Editorial posted to the MILF Website (Nov 8-15): Still part of peace process

.... Moreover, when two parties signed a peace agreement, they are enjoined to undertake efforts to implement the agreement mutually, but there are instances that the activity will only involve one party and the other party simply cannot help or participate. For instance, in case this is deemed necessary which we firmly believe it is, accommodating the GPH-MILF Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro as fleshed out in the Basic Law into the Philippine Constitution is an internal process of government but it is still part of the bargain and the peace process. It is therefore grossly incorrect to say that the MILF has already agreed, or is duped into agreeing, to the internal legal process of the government as mode of finishing the road map to full implementation of their agreement, because that legal process is still part of the peace process. It is not a separate effort but still part of the peace process. One simple way to help the peace-making in Mindanao is to understand the process itself. Any misdirected comment, even it is done without malice, will not be of any help. Instead, it promotes misunderstanding, intrigues, and problems; sometimes, it is tantamount to spoiling. This we should all shy away.
