The Bangsamoro Youth Organizations from different schools, barangays and municipalities from eastern part of Maguindanao; Sultan Kudarat and North Cotabato held a one-day Bangsamoro Youth Assembly with a theme “ Youth of Today, Leaders of Tomorrow” last March 19, 2013 at Datu Paglas National High School Covered Court, Datu Paglas, Maguindanao.
The theme symbolizes and categorizes the youth as the hope of the nation; and effective partners in sustaining and promoting the development of communities towards peace and order, social, economic, cultural, political and educational development.
Moreover, Sheikh Khalifa Nando, MILF Supreme Court Justice; and guest of honor stressed the essence and the role of the youth in nation building.
He said “The youth is the mainstream of the community in resolving issues or problems that may arise in the future; defending the nation; and leading advocacies for peace and development, unity and attaining harmonious relationship among sectors of society”.
“It is the basic responsibilities of the youth to correct the injustices committed in the past against its people; promote traditional and cultural practices that are not in conflict with the Islam; and to protect their identity as a nation”. “Through Islamic guidance, good upbringing; proper training and relevant education, the youth shall eventually become good leaders and managers in business and commercial companies; institutions and organizations; and possibly in the government. But the Moro youth shall in all their undertakings be guided by the Holy Qur’an and the tradition of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)”, Shiekh Nando further elaborated.
Thinker says “Let us combine the Vigor of the Youth and the Wisdom of the Elders”. This saying implies that the youth should be molded in their early age to become efficient, effective and productive individuals in the future. The youth is therefore, the power and light of a nation.
The assembly was attended by more or less one thousand participants from different youth organizations; local leaders and representatives from the MILF Central Committee.
