MILF: Malacañang reiterates calls for lawmakers to pursue Bangsamoro peace process

Posted to the MILF Website (Feb 11): Malacañang reiterates calls for lawmakers to pursue Bangsamoro peace process

Malacañang in an earlier statement reiterated its call on lawmakers to pursue the Bangsamoro peace process. Presidential Communications Operations Office Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr. said the next steps for the proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) should be in pursuit of the peace process.

In an interview, Sec. Coloma said in Tagalog, "Dahil kung hindi ito isusulong at iisa lang naman ang alternatibo, iyong pagbalik sa karahasan at iyong kawalan ng kasiguruhan hinggil sa pag-unlad at istabilidad ng Mindanao" . "Kaya iyan po ang mga dapat na magnilay po ang ating mga mambabatas na ito ang magiging consequence kung mababalam o titigil ang prosesong pangkapayapaan," Coloma added.

The hearings on BBL has been suspended in the two Chambers of Congress with senators and congressmen saying they should await first the results of the inquiries on the Mamasapano incident that killed 44 members of the Philippine National Police Special Action Force (PNP-SAF) when they intruded into Tukanalipao, Mamasapano, Maguindanao to capture, dead or alive international terrorist Zulkifli Bin AbHir and his cohort Basit Usman.

Marwan was allegedly killed in the said incident and a DNA test conducted confirmed it.

Mamasapano is a wide area and is a “Dragons’ nest” where Moro rebels belonging to the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters are encamped. The encounter also resulted to the death of 18 MILF rebels, wounded 12 and also killed 4 civilians.
