Malacanang has expressed its continued support for the
proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) despite Sunday’s mis-encounter between the
country’s police force and armed groups in Mamasapano, Maguindanao.
In a Palace press briefing on Monday, Presidential Communications
Operations Office (PCOO) Secretary Herminio Coloma said the government is fully
determined to complete the peace process in Mindanao .
“Ang pananaw ng pamahalaan ay hindi nagbabago. Mahalaga ang
peace process sa Mindanao , mahalaga ang
pagpasa ng Bangsamoro Basic Law at patuloy pa ring itinataguyod ang prosesong
pangkapayaan,” he said.
Coloma made the statement after Sen. Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
ordered the temporary suspension of all hearings related to the passage of the
BBL at the Senate while investigation on the Maguindanao mis-encounter is
ongoing.
“Ginagalang natin ang proseso ng mga mambabatas at sinabi ko
na rin na mauunawaan namin ang kanilang pasya dahil nga sa pinakahuling
kaganapan pero patuloy pa rin ang pagtataguyod natin ng prosesong pangkapayapaan
dahil mahalaga ang pagpapasa ng Bangsamoro Basic Law,” he said.
As of 4 p.m. Monday, 43 bodies were recovered following the
bloody encounter between the police’s Special Action Force (SAF) and members of
the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF).
Eleven other SAF members were recovered and wounded.
