MILF: CAPSI holds another forum on BBL

Posted to the MILF Website (Dec 21): CAPSI holds another forum on BBL



The Concerned Alliance for Professionals and Students (CAPSI) Inc. held another forum for professionals, students and members of the academe on the proposed Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) on December 17, 2014 at Barangay San Rafael, Isabela City, Basilan. 
  
The resource speakers were members of the Joint Normalization Committee (JNC) namely; Atty. Raisa Jajurie, Atty. Naguib Sinarimbo, Toks Ibrahim and Committee Chairman Mr. Mohamad Nasif, Al Haj. Mr. Nasif introduced his colleagues and thanked Mr. Harrisul Samanul, CAPSI President and program host for inviting them. He said "We came here to visit this Island Moro community and to stress the purpose of our struggle that is how to uplift the economic condition of the Moro people”. 

Toks Ibrahim from the Office of the Chief of Staff of the BIAF-MILF in his short message said, "Mag establish tayo ng governo upang matutulungan ang mga taong naaapi" (Let us establish our own government to help those who are oppressed or those economically deprived).

Atty. Jajurie in her introductory message warned the Bangsamoro communitites, "Dapat abangan natin bawat hakbang at itong mga public hearing kasi duong naka angla sa BBL kung anu ang inasamasam natin" (Let us be careful in our decisions as what we dreamed of is contained in the BBL)”.

Atty. Sinarimbo, explained that there are two kinds of agreements 1.) A Ceasefire Agreement that can be enforced by the president without passing through the congress and (2) Agreements like the Framework Agreement or the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro that resulted to the crafting of the BBL. The proposed law must be transmitted by the Office of the President (Executive Department) to Congress (Legislative Branch) for enactment into law and when one or groups question its legality, the Supreme Court (Judiciary) decides whether it is constitutional or not.

The program lasted for half day but was described by Abou Muhammad Asmawil, MLGOO of Ungkaya Pukan town as fruitful as it enhanced their knowledge on the provisions of the proposed law. The delegation from the JNC left the venue after lunch as they were invited by Basilan Governor Jum Akbar.
