It is baffling to note that since day one in 1974, at the heights
of the fierce Filipino-Moro war in Mindanao, the Philippine government under
President Ferdinand E. Marcos had invited the Organization of of Islamic
Conference [now 'Organization of Islamic Cooperation'] (OIC) to mediate in
achieving peace in the colonized Bangsamoro homeland of Mindanao, Sulu and
Palawan (MINSUPALA). But in the course of the peace process the government has
always portrayed the jelly role of one big-head octopus with a variety of loose
tentacles.
Indeed, is Philippine colonialism a singular-headed political
establishment with several distinct tentacles to prey in neutralizing different
adversarial forces?...
Clearly, this is the potent role of the Philippine
government related to the freedom struggle of the Bangsamoro people against
Filipino colonial hegemony in Mindanao....
On this note, why are the different presidential tentacles of the
Philippine government up to only cosmetic peace process by conducting peaceful
negotiations with the Bangsamoro freedom fighters and even signing peace
agreements with them, but each tentacle government never has the political will
to implement the forged peace agreement.
Is this the bottom line policy of the octopus-like Philippine
government? ......
