From the MILF Website (Jan 22): Nusantara Seminar in Malaysia lauds Chairman Murad
The esteemed organizers and participants of the Malay Archipelago Seminar Seminar: Islam in Southeast Asia Challenges and Hopes held at Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia lauded MILF Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim for his humbling participation and humility in magnanimity. Chairman Murad was invited purposely to speak on the topic “Islam in the Malay Archipelago: The New Rise of the Bangsamoro” but he gracefully continued to participate the three-day Nusantara Seminar.
The Reception convoked for Chairman Murad, YB Dato’ Seri Abdullah Bin Md. Zin, Adviser for Religious Affairs for the Government of Malaysia, propounded the gratitude and appreciation, in behalf of the organizers and participants, for Chairman Murad. “His Excellency Brother Chairman Murad, indeed, we highly appreciated your kind acceptance of our invitation, much more, encourage by your active participation,” Dato’ Seri Abdullah Bn Md. Zin said.
“Insya-Allah, this will not be our first and last engagement. We will always pray and be ready to support the endeavour for the success of the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro between the government and the MILF,” said Dato’ Seri Abdullah.
Chairman Murad thanked the organizers and participants from Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, and Burma that numbered to more than 1000 for the warm welcome and reception. A diplomat representing the embassy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia also participated.
“We are deeply honored of the invitation extended to MILF and we put premium on our participation as an obligation in order to be with our brothers Muslims in Southeast Asia working in the fields of religious and academia concerns which augur well with our determination to ensure the success of the Framework Agreement toward the ideological, political, economic and social empowerment of the Bangsamoro,” Murad stressed.
Murad also thanked the Government of Malaysia and His Excellency Dto’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak for the exemplary facilitation and commitment of continuing support to the peace process that significantly help both the government and MILF forged the Framework Agreement. The Chairman expressed optimism that the peace treaty with the Government of the Philippines will lead to the entrenchment of Bangsamoro government under a system and rules of law serving the general welfare of all its constituents regardless of ethnicity and religion.
Murad cited significant weight put in by the seminar in the prioritization of support and cooperation for the peace process and development of the Bangsamoro. Dato’ Seri Abdullah personally handed the invitation to Chairman Murad at Camp Darapanan in December last year.
