The Moro Islamic Liberation Front Central Committee reaffirms and strengthen its standing “hands off” policy on Philippine elections.

In the same resolution, the MILF leadership reiterates prohibition to its political, military and the United Bangsamoro Justice Party (UBJP) officers and non-officer of the Front to run in any elective position and join and participate in any political campaigns and rallies.

The prohibition also includes using the MILF properties including vehicles and equipment in campaigning or any election related activities.

The resolution further stated that violators shall be penalized of which suspension is the least that can be imposed.
