STATEMENT OF SEN. GUINGONA ON SIGNING OF POWER SHARING ANNEX OF THE FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT ON BANGSAMORO

We congratulate the Government of the Republic of the Philippines (GPH) and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) panels in their commitment to consolidate consensus and reconcile contending positions, and come to an exclusive agreement on the issue of power sharing.

Despite the sensitivity of the issues, both panels were able to come up with a resolution that has now brought us ever closer to achieving lasting peace in the region.

With only one more Annex left to be passed by the panels, I look forward to sponsoring the Bangsamoro Basic Law in the Senate.
