MILF: BTC, CHD ink agreement on technical assistance

From the MILF Website (Dec 21): BTC, CHD ink agreement on technical assistance



Additional technical and logistical supports are forthcoming for the Bangsamoro Transition Commission (BTC) as it concluded a memorandum of agreement with the Center for Humanitarian Dialogue (CHD) on December 17.
  
Chairman Mohagher Iqbal signed in behalf of the BTC along with Ali Saleem, Country Representative of the Switzerland-based CHD.

The MoA stipulates for the provision by the CHD of technical assistance by eminent persons and experts, support for strategic communications, and logistics for information dissemination and dialogues.

The recently-formed Communications Group of the BTC is tasked to supervise hour-long radio programs already being broadcast in the provinces of Sulu and Basilan and Cotabato City.

There would be dialogues between the BTC and critical stakeholders in Manila and selected places in Mindanao. Public information dissemination would be intensified especially within the grassroots.    



A similar MoA was inked on November 30 by BTC and the Conciliation Resources which is also a member of the International Contact Group (ICG) for the GPH-MILF peace

negotiations. That earlier MoA also provided for the intensification of public dialogues and the widest delivery of relevant information as well as the gathering of feedback from the people.

CHD acts as coordinator of the ICG.
