“Every Bangsamoro must share his/her part with consistent commitment in sustaining the gains of the peace process forged between Philippines Government (GPH) and Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) on March 27, 2014 which is a product of seventeen years of hard work and protracted negotiations.  We pray that the incoming administration will implement it”, Mamiscal stressed.
