Kamim
Macmod, Luzon Regional Cluster Coordinator, disclosed that the said activity is
in support to the lawyers led by Atty. Michael Mastura who filed a motion
before the Supreme Court (SC) on Tuesday to defend the Framework Agreement on
the Bangsamoro (FAB) and the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB),
which were challenged before the High Court.
“UNYPAD is
among other groups that sent its members from different chapters in National
Capital Region to join the rally to show its unwavering support to the peace
process in general and the initiative of these lawyers to defend the FAB and
CAB in particular,” he said.
“Again, we
as peace advocates have joined with groups that have been appealing to
lawmakers to preserve the FAB and CAB as revoking them will destroy the whole
peace process,” said Joharto Ali, Chief of the Committee on Campaign and
Advocacy of UNYPAD NCR Chapter.
He appealed
to good Justices of the SC not to junk the CAB as CAB, he said, is the life of
the peace process.
“Earlier,
the Philippine Constitution Association (PHILCONSA) asked the Supreme Court to
nullify the FAB and CAB, and this initiative pushed the believers of peace to
initiate a counter-move in order to save the peace process,” Ali pointed out.
Ali said
that the rallyists from different groups repeatedly chanted “Peace in Mindanao , Now na! Now na, Peace in Mindanao .”
