From the Mindanao Examiner blog site (Jan 26): Nur Misuari tahimik sa Annex signing (Nur Misuari quiet over the Annex signing)



Nur Misuari at Khabier Malik (Mindanao Examiner)

Tahimik pa rin si Moro National Liberation Front chairman Nur Misuari sa pagkakalagda ng Annex on Normalization, ang huli at ikaapat na nakapaloob sa Bangsamoro Framework Agreement, sa pagitan ng pamahalaang Aquino at Moro Islamic Liberation Front.

[Moro National Liberation Front Chairman Nur Misuari has been quiet over the signing of the Annex on normalization, the fourth and last contained the Bangsamoro Framework Agreement between the Aquino government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front.]

 Mula ng maglunsad ito ng atake sa Zamboanga City noong nakaraang taon ay tuluyan ng nagtago si Misuari at hindi pa rin nagpapakita o nagsasalita, at gayun rin ang kanyang commander ni Khabier Malik na inulat ng militar na na umano’y namatay sa Sulu dahil sa sakit.

[Since the launching of attacks in Zamboanga City last year was Misuari has been in hiding and has not shown himself or spoken (to the media). And so has his commander Khabier Malik who the military reported allegedly died in Sulu due to illness.]

 Tanging mga galamay lamang ni Misuari ang nagbibigay ng pahayag at hindi galing mismo sa MNLF, ngunit matagal ng tutol ang rebeldeng grupo sa peace talks ng pamahalaang Aquino sa MILF dahil sa may kasunduaan rin ito sa gobyerno at ngayon ay dumaraan sa tripartite review kasama ang Organization of Islamic Cooperation.

Nagkasundo na ang pamahalaang at MILF sa huling annex at sisimulan na ang paggagawa ng batas ng Bangsamoro Juridical Entity na siyang ipapasa sa Kongreso upang ito’y maratipika.

Sa kabila nito ay kaliwa’t kanan naman ang suporta ng ibat-ibang pamahalaan sa peace talks, ayon sa mga pahayag ng Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process.

Sinabi ni Presidential peace adviser Teresita Deles na patungo na ang paguusap sa paglalagda ng  Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro. “This is indeed a long-awaited moment that is a gift to our people at the start of a new year of renewed hope and commitment. It has been a very difficult road arriving at this major milestone of the peace process,” ani Deles.

Sinabi pa ni Deles na lahat ng kasunduan sa paguusap ay may basbas ni Pangulong Benigno Aquino at dapat naaayon sa batas.

“It has been a difficult road getting to here and we know that the path ahead will continue to be fraught with challenges. As we celebrate this moment, we also affirm our readiness to undertake the tasks that shall ensure the full and satisfactory implementation of this agreement, together with the MILF, other partners and stakeholders,” wika pa ni Deles.

Ayon naman kay chief MILF peace negotiator Mohagher Iqbal ay mahaba pa ang proseso sa paguusap, ngunit maganda umano ang usad nito.

“They say the signing of the comprehensive peace agreement is just in the corner. They have diverse reasons to entertain such belief and I cannot blame them for it. In fact, I sympathize with them but not necessarily taking their view at face value. But truth is that anyone like me who has been part of the peace journey since the beginning will exactly wish and long for the day of reckoning to come soon,” ani Iqbal.

“We may be able to sign the comprehensive peace agreement soon as we wish, but that is not the end of the odyssey,” dagdag pa nito. “Ideally that day of reckoning will come our way on or before 2016.”
