President Rodrigo Duterte believes that the only way to achieve piece in Mindanao is through federalism.
“The only way that we can achieve peace in Mindanao is we go for federalism. That is what Murad and Nur are asking. And why wouldn’t we give it a try if it will save the country, prevent the breakage of Mindanao?” the President said.
Murad is Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) chair Al-Hajj Murad Ebrahim, while Nur is Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) leader Nur Misuari.
According to Inquirer, President Duterte might sign the latest version of the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) on June 26, in time for Eid al-Fitr, the end of Ramadan, and then send it to Congress.
If passed by Congress, the BBL would establish a proposed Bangsamoro Autonomous Region that will replace the current Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
“I will push for it in Congress. That’s the truth. I’m not joking with you. On the third year of my term, God willing, it will be there and you will see how we will build our country,” the President said.
