Posted to the MILF Website (Sep 28): MILF Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim attends 1st Annual Commemoration of September 18th World Alliance of Religions’ Peace Summit in Seoul

Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim, of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) attended the 1st Annual Commemoration of September 18th World Alliance of Religions’ Peace (WARP) Summit in Seoul, South Korea upon invitation by Chairman Man Hee Lee, Chairman of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL.

Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim, of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) attended the 1st Annual Commemoration of September 18th World Alliance of Religions’ Peace (WARP) Summit in Seoul, South Korea upon invitation by Chairman Man Hee Lee, Chairman of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL).

HWPL is a non-governmental peace organization registered under U.N. Department of Public Information whose mandate is to put an end to wars and restore world peace.

It has two affiliates, the International Women’s Peace Group (IWPG) with Nam Hee Kim as the Chairwoman, and the International Peace Youth Group (IPYG). IWPG and IPYG serves as the two wings of peace, making it possible for HWPL to soar. They are protecting the women and youth of the world for the co-prosperity of mankind, through advocacy on ending wars and bringing peace.

HWPL is taking the lead in peace-building in response to a world rife with disputes and armed conflicts. 

HWPL in its WARP Summit in September 18-19, had gathered over 300 world-renowned leaders, among them are  former and current head of states, chief justices, religious leaders, university presidents, and heads of various organizations around the world, and thousands of members were in attendance.

On the 2nd day of the conference, Sept 19th, Presentation of the Convention on the Renunciation and Cessation of War and International Armed Conflict was discussed. Participants to the summit signed peace agreements.

Chairman Lee said “The Purpose of HWPL is to bring about the cessation of war and establish peace as an inheritance for future generations. Peace came to Mindanao, a land that had suffered from a 40-year conflict. A monument of peace was erected in the region where the MILF handed over their weapons.”

In his message, Chairman Al Haj Murad Ebrahim said, “We, too in the Bangsamoro, Mindanao, in the Southern Philippines share this vision of achieving World Peace. Last March 27, 2014 the MILF signed the historic Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB) with the Government of the Philippines to end the more than four decades of war and conflict in the Bangsamoro Homeland. This peace agreement, our modest contribution to World Peace is a product of eighteen years of hard and persistent negotiation”.

Chairman Al Haj Murad also said that the MILF is adherent to the teachings of Islam, the religion of peace, that promotes and desires peace with justice and dignity for all human beings.

He also mentioned that despite the uncertainties facing the passage of Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL), the MILF leadership demonstrated its commitment and great courage in undertaking the symbolic decommissioning of weapons and combatants.”

After MILF Chairman Ebrahim’s message, HWPL Chairman Lee has only to say, He has nothing more to ask because the MILF Chairman had answered all questions he has in mind.

One may say that the MILF became the featured case of conflict resolution in the WARP Summit because the CAB that it signed with the government is the only peace agreement that is prospering amidst world-wide conflicts.
