Last May 28 and 29, executives from the MILF Task Force Sajahatra Bangsamoro led by Sheikh Mahmud Ahmad who is concurrently the Executive Director of the Bangsamoro Leadership and Management Institute (BLMI) had a conference with OPAPP officials headed by Ms. Polly Michelle Cunanan, Director of OPAPP Communications Group and Angela Carla Segovia, Operations Manager of OPAPP Communications group.
With Sheikh Mahmud were Dr. Taugan Kikay, Team Leader, Project Management Team-Central Management Office (PMT-CMO); Engineer Muhajireen Ali, Liaison Officer and Darwin Matindo, MILF Communications and Information Officer based in Zamboanga Sibugay who is also a member of task force Sajahatra Bangsamoro in Western Mindnao.
In a news dispatch from the OPAPP Office at Pasig City, Metro Manila, Mr. Matindo relayed the agenda as well as things that transpired during the conference between the two groups. According to Mr. Matindo, the agenda were the proposed communication plan; preparation for the launching of Sajahatra Bangsamoro in Tawi-Tawi and issues affecting CHED Scholars. Engr. Ali was quoted by Mr. Matindo to have said that, “If the problem with CHED pertaining to the issues affecting the scholars are not resolved, the launching of the program in Tawi-Tawi may be postponed”. Engr. Ali urged OPAPP officials to address the problem because the people on the ground particularly those affected by the issues on scholarship will blame us”.
The outcome of the conference was unclear but Sheikh Mahmud and Dr. Kikay are in the process of preparing the budget for the PMT-CMO for its whole year operations. All proposals are subject to the approval of the Joint Central Committee meeting slated on June 3, 2013. The venue of the meeting was not mentioned in the news dispatch from Mr. Matindo.
Activities of the Sajahatra Bangsamoro are underway particularly on the selection of scholars from Moro, settlers and Lumad tribes. A total of 600 scholars were allotted to the program but 50 slots were given to Christian incoming first year students and 50 slots for Lumads. As of this writing, the identities of the scholars were certainly identified by the joint task force. Mr. Matindo, despite his lack of time and access to internet exerted his efforts to relay to his superiors in the MILF the developments that transpired in their meeting with OPAPP officials for the past two days.
