MILF: Rasid Ladiasan, MILF CCCH Chair passes away

Posted to the Moro Islamic Liberation Front Website (May 12): Rasid Ladiasan, MILF CCCH Chair passes away



Words of sympathies and condolences shower over the family of the Chairman of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) – Coordinating Committee on the Cessation of Hostilities (CCCH), Rasid Ladiasan, for his demise yesterday (May 11) afternoon after months of battling against lung cancer.
Von Al Haq, former MILF-CCCH Chair, where Ladiasan served as the CCCH Head of the Secretariat in 2005, hoped the latter will “reap the reward from the Almighty for his participation in the Bangsamoro struggle.”

“His passing away is God’s will. May the Almighty grant him paradise,” Al Haq said. “Brother Rasid served four CCCH chairmen before the (MILF) Central Committee designated him to chair the CCCH in 2014,” he added.

Together with the MILF Peace panel Chair Mohagher Iqbal, Ladiasan appeared in 2015 at the Senate probe on the Mamasapano encounter.

Doctor Amor Pendaliday related that Ladiasan was the founding officer and organizer of the Agency for Youth Affairs, founding director of the Center for Muslim Youth Studies, Inc. and compiler of the speeches of the late MILF Chairman Sheikh Salamat Hashim.

”Thank you for the good company we shared since 1990s,” Pendaliday posted in his facebook wall. “We pray Allah Subhanu wa ta Ala to bless and reward you with Jannatul Firdhaus,” he added.

Extending condolences to the bereaved family of Ladiasan, prominent peace advocate from Lanao, Drieza Lininding said, “We lost a comrade and young leader in the Bangsamoro.”

“Bangsamoro lost a great son. May your journey be shrouded with clouds of peace and justice, Bai (Cebuano for friend) Rashid,” said photojournalist Froilan Gallardo.

“Brother Rashid was a true Mujahid, revolutionary, and an exemplary youth leader, he was one of my mentor,” Moro writer Mubarak Dumato said.

“He is a Great Mujahid. Allah will reward him Jannah. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioun,” said Tu Alfonso, another Moro scribe.

“A dedicated and courageous Mujahid,” Doctor Saffrullah Dipatuan, Chairman of the Bangsamoro Development Agency described Ladiasan adding, “Kind, passionate, selfless, energetic and fearless are some of the words that describes the character of this young man.”

Former BDA Chair of Basilan Tony Sakkalahul said, “Our prayer may all his sins be forgiven and all good deeds be rewarded, In sha Allah!.”

“It's sad that he never got to see the full realization of all his hardship and struggle. May Allah grant you paradise, Kaka Rasid.” said Andrew Alonto from the Bangsamoro Transition Commission.

“A fellow youth peace worker in the 1990s and peer in the National youth Parliament, we lighted candles in Marawi amidst uncertainties. MAY THE LIGHT REACH YOU IN JANNAH, RAS,” said Samira Gutoc, Moro Journalist and former Assemblywoman of the ARMM.
