MILF: Sema to ARMM officials: ‘Support BBL’

Posted to the MILF Website (Sep 22): Sema to ARMM officials: ‘Support BBL’



Maguindanao 1st District and Cotabato City Representative Bai Sandra Sema has urged the officials of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) to support the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) during the Congress pre-plenary Budget Hearing of the ARMM 2015 Budget on September 16 at the House of Representatives in Batasan Hills, Quezon City.
  
“We are happy because we continue with the struggle. Because we have produced good leaders and that we are now part of history, willing and committed to continue with the Bangsamoro. The Bangsamoro(government) gives (national) identity. It determines the future of all of us, not for MILF alone. We must unite and promote the BBL,” Sema said.

Sema, the Vice Chairperson of the House Committee on Appropriations, presided over the hearing for the pre-plenary approval of the proposed P24.299 billion budget of the ARMM for 2015.

On his part, House Deputy Speaker for Mindanao Rep. Pangalian M. Balindong lauded the ARMM official for their readiness to relinquish their posts to provide a smooth transition to the new Bangsamoro entity.
The Bangsamoro once formed it will render the ARMM abolished.

Meanwhile, ARMM Regional Governor MujivHataman stressed out that the budget hearing may be the last one because the budget appropriation for the incoming new political entity is thru a Block grant, automatic appropriation.

House of Representative members Zajid Magudadatu, 2nd district of Maguidanao, Ruby Sahali, lone district of Tawi-Tawi, Ansaruddin Adiong, 2nd district of Lanao del Sur and Sitti DjaliaTurabin-Hataman, Anak Mindanao (AMIN) Partylist were in attendance during the budget hearing.
