Cotabato City – The Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) leadership said on Sunday it is seeing a “bright future” in the commitment of the Duterte government for the passage of the law that will create the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region, ending decades of armed struggle for self-determination in Mindanao, a report by Manila Bulletin said on February 26.
“We see the light at the end of the tunnel finally,” MILF First Vice Chairman Ghazali Jaafar, who is also the chair of the Bangsamoro transition Commission (BTC) told The Manila Bulletin.
The BTC that crafted the draft Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) is composed of members from the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF), indigenous people, and migrant settler.
According to the Manila Bulletin article, Chairman Jaafar was all praises that the Senate has “adopted the BTC version,” while the House of Representatives is also heeding public clamor to do the same.
Leaders of both Congress chambers were reportedly contemplating to pass their versions for third and final reading next month.
“The trend was heading towards such timeline, adding he had attended all Senate field hearings and has been attending all consultative meetings by the House working committees as BTC chairperson”, Jaafar said as quoted by Manila Bulletin.
Jaafar thanked the leaders of both the Senate and the House for giving him a role in their hearings.
