But who are these Bangsamoro people? They consist of indigenous Muslims contributing 5.1% to the Philippines’ population.
A lot of senators, lawmakers, and attorneys are having heated arguments because of it. But it is a need. The Bangsamoro Basic Law needs to be passed promptly. It is because it is the first step on the peace process. The peace process will cease the war in the autonomous region.

Mindanao is a bountiful place for investors. Due to its place that is full of resources, it became an economic bonanza. With that, a lot of people in Mindanao will benefit and can make their communities better. But of course, this will not happen if a conflict or war is still happening in the area.

    The consensus model envisions all the component parts striving toward the common goal by harmoniously moving cases and people through the system. The conflict model views the component parts functioning primarily to serve their own interests. This theoretical perspective sees justice more as a product of conflicts among agencies that ultimately serves to protect individual rights. Here, we can compare the consensus model as focusing mainly on public safety, whereas the conflict model is more concerned with individual rights (Cronkhite, 2013). In dealing with criminal justice as a system you first have to look at the different components of the criminal justice system. There are the law enforcement agencies which include all state, federal and local. Then there are the court systems which are also at the local, state and federal levels.

These all show the differences between the conflict and consensus models and how they all work together for a different outcome. The first step is with the police…

It is because it is the first step on the peace process. The peace process will cease the war in the autonomous region. It will also stop the war between the government and the MILF (Moro Islamic Liberation Front). The people in Mindanao will have the harmonic community they deserve. According to Froilyn Mendoza,the founder of the Teduray Lambangian Women’s Organization, passing the Bangsamoro Basic Law will give them additional rights like the process of consultation with the population of Mindanao. Indigenous women were able to get involved in these consultations which included capacity building activities that empowered them to participate. Through these consultations, they have the right…

    The Maguindanao massacre, violent as it already was, is a source of more violence. But the task of helping bridge groups and transcending biases of tribes and of roles in society (military vis-à-vis CSOs) have been a source of energy for us to continue our peacebuilding work. Balay Mindanaw as an institution is steadfast in its vision of peace even with the changes in the political and peace terrain in Mindanao. The work we are doing in Maguindanao may seem to have stretched Balay Mindanaw’s scope but it did not. It only gave us an opportunity to be flexible and proactive in our peacebuilding work. The limited funds has not been a hindering factor, nor is the lack of capacity to do widen our scope. The will as an institution to do what needs to be done is key in this experience of continually bridging people and groups towards building relationships among those who have been victims of violence.…
