The Philippine government and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) have renewed their commitment to the Bangsamoro peace process and have agreed to fast-track its implementation with only two years left of the transition period.
Cesar Yano, chair of the government’s peace implementing panel, and Mohagher Iqbal, chair of the MILF’s peace implementing panel, met in Davao City on Saturday—a first under the Marcos administration—to talk about four decision points to fast-track the implementation of the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro .
The panels also agreed to further review proposals for the Armed Forces of the Philippines Redeployment Parameters and Areas for the Joint Security Assessment, Transition Plan for the Joint Peace and Security Teams, and the Intergrated Framework on the implementation of camps transformation program in the initial 33 villages of six MILF camps, the statement read.
Yano and Iqbal also said they discussed the law enforcement operations in Datu Paglas, Maguindanao del Sur on June 18, which killed seven alleged members of the MILF. The two leaders expressed their sympathies to the bereaved families. "The Parties, along with the entire peace mechanisms, re-affirm their commitment to the continued implementation of the CAB and the achievement of just and lasting peace in the Bangsamoro and in the entire country," it added.
