Groups of fully armed fighters of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) and the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) gathered peacefully at Sitio Molao, Barangay Pedtad, Kabacan, North Cotabato on April 20, 2014. They have one identical purpose which is erudition of their constituencies on the CAB. The MILF fighters were led by its Provincial Chairman Datu Kineg Inalang of the MILF Province of Kapalawan.
The MNLF fighters on the other hand were led by its ranking official Datu Mentokan Zunsunga. Other participants were members of the political committees of both Fronts. Bangsamoro civilians also joined the gathering. The led convenor was Ustadz Kanapia Bala, a religious leader of Barangay Pedtad. The two leaders along with political and traditional leaders sat on the presidential table they named as ministerial table consistent with the form of government of the future Bangsamoro. They brotherly mingled with full of warmth and cordiality.
Other guests were traditional and political leaders Datu Efren Mantawil, Datu Rhosman Mamaluba, Datu Masla Mantawil and Datu Manny Pedtamanan. The gathering was festive with thanksgiving banquet or “kanduli” offered for the occasion. Their faces obviously manifested the feelings of joy reverberating in their hearts as hopes for unity, peace and better future become apparent in the prospects of the CAB.
Community leader Deodatu Makina rendered the welcome address while Datu Makong Mantawil gave the opening remarks. Both expressed utmost cordiality and brotherly welcome to the crowd. Datu Rhrosman Mamaluba in his inspirational message recalled that once he heard someone saying that, “One day Chairman Inalang will be coming to the place and it did happen with the presence of the Provincial Chairman today”, he said.
Kapalawan MILF Committee on Information Provincial Director Datuan Panolimba expounded on the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB) giving conspicuous clarity to the four annexes. He said, the Bangsamoro Government is not owned solely by the MILF but also the MNLF as well. In short, it is for all the Bangsamoro people. Provincial MILF Chairman Inalang said: What he said is true he will come to the place some day. Now that he had come, he is released of that obligation. MNLF key official Zunsunga said: Let us be obedient to Almighty Allah when He said: “Fulfil your promise to Me and I will fulfil My promise to you.” This is a condition precedent to anything we will be expecting as we ask help from the Almighty.
Open forum gave chances to clarifications. Most questions were concentrated on the normalization particularly on the decommissioning aspect. Director Panolimba explained vividly that everyone is assured of his security and that there is no surrender in it. It is only putting the arms beyond use to a neutral third party.
