STATEMENT OF SENATOR TG GUINGONA ON PEACE PROCESS

We laud the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and the Philippine Government Peace Panel in their efforts in breaking the impasse that stalled the peace process.

The news of having a wealth-sharing annex for the comprehensive peace agreement during this month of Ramadan is indeed welcome news and would be utterly symbolic. Certainly our brothers in Mindanao have suffered enough in this decades-old war, and we all look forward to the days when the sounds of armed conflict will be silenced forever.

We look forward to finally being able to rehabilitate the Mindanao region and providing our brothers a better way of life. For that to become a reality, a comprehensive peace agreement must be reached the soonest possible time. I express my support to the efforts of both the government and the MILF peace panels in coming up with the remaining annexes for the peace agreement.
